Mr. Daines met with Vice Premier He Lifeng, who oversees many economic issues for China, on Saturday and was set to meet Premier Li Qiang, the country\u2019s second-highest official, on Sunday.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">In an interview with The New York Times on Saturday after the meeting with Mr. He, Mr. Daines, a Republican member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, said he urged China to take effective action to halt the export of chemical precursors for fentanyl.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cI met with President Trump a few days before I came over, and he was pleased that I was coming to communicate his \u2018America First\u2019 message and, importantly, to make sure that Chinese leaders knew the seriousness of the fentanyl issue, and the role that China can play in stopping the shipment of precursors to the Mexican cartels,\u201d Mr. Daines said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-1\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Chinese officials have said that the fentanyl crisis is rooted in an American failure to curb demand for the drug, and that Beijing has taken effective measures to limit shipments of fentanyl and its chemical precursors. China\u2019s cabinet issued a report earlier this month on its fentanyl measures, and Mr. Daines said this was being studied by American officials.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Mr. Daines said he was trying to lay the groundwork for a meeting between President Trump and Xi Jinping, China\u2019s top leader. \u201cThis visit is the first step to arrange and set up the next step, which will be a very important meeting between President Xi and President Trump \u2014 when that occurs, I don\u2019t know, where it occurs, I don\u2019t know.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The White House has not named Mr. Daines as acting on its behalf. But Mr. Daines is one of Mr. Trump\u2019s top allies in Congress. He was the <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/donald-trump-steve-daines-election-2024-853fcaf1a577a93cbf5bd0a6eea34338\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">first member of the Republican leadership<\/a> in the Senate to endorse Mr. Trump in 2023 for a second term at a time when many Republican senators were leery of seeing Mr. Trump return to the White House.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cGiven Senator Daines\u2019s relationship to Donald Trump, China certainly wants to learn from him about Trump\u2019s China policy intentions \u2014 whether he still wants to make a deal with China, and if so, what the deal would look like,\u201d said Wu Xinbo, dean of the Institute of International Studies at Fudan University in Shanghai.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">China also wants Senator Daines to \u201cbring a message to Donald Trump that China wants to sit down to talk with the U.S. side and to avoid further escalation of the tensions,\u201d Mr. Wu said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-2\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Mr. Trump has imposed 20 percent tariffs on goods from China and threatened more. China wants to head off further tariffs.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cThere\u2019s a window of opportunity before early April for China and the U.S. to engage each other, and Senator Daines\u2019s visit could play a pivotal role,\u201d Mr. Wu said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Mr. Daines said that he was not focusing on tariffs with China, because the Office of the United States Trade Representative has not yet finished a policy review.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Mr. Trump has said he plans to meet with Mr. Xi, without specifying details. China has said nothing publicly about a meeting. But the contacts between working-level administration officials that typically precede such a meeting have been absent so far during Mr. Trump\u2019s second term.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Mr. Xi makes all important decisions in China, particularly on foreign policy. That makes summits with American presidents particularly important in setting the trajectory of bilateral relations. The two leaders met in 2017 when Mr. Xi went to Mar-a-Lago, in Florida, and Mr. Trump went to China.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-3\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The lack of engagement with Washington until now has led some in Beijing to begin to doubt whether Mr. Trump is sincere in his expressed desire to meet Mr. Xi, said Yun Sun, the director of the China program at the Stimson Center in Washington.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cThey see him changing his position rapidly on a number of issues,\u201d Ms. Sun said. \u201cThat translates into an almost fatalism for the Chinese, that they should aim to prepare for the worst case scenario, that\u2019s their conclusion.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Mr. Daines said he also expressed concern about China\u2019s barriers to imports, beyond just tariffs, during his visit to Beijing. He declined to provide any specifics. But Montana politicians have long argued that China\u2019s intermittent halts on imports of beef from the state are unfair trade barriers, and not the result of any actual concerns about mad cow disease, as Beijing contends.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Mr. Daines lived for six years in southern China in the 1990s as a project manager for Procter &amp; Gamble, the American consumer products giant.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">This weekend\u2019s trip is Mr. Daines\u2019s sixth to China since his election to the Senate in 2014, making him one of the few members of Congress who have continued traveling to the country even as relations have deteriorated.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<p><script async
