Giant pandas arrive in Atlanta after Trump-Xi meeting
China's President Xi Jinping announced during a visit to the U.S. that two giant pandas would be sent to Zoo Atlanta. This represents a renewal of China's panda-lending program to American zoos, which had previously paused due to tensions between the two countries. The pandas have now departed from China and are on their way to Atlanta as part of an agreement between the Chinese and American governments.
