US President Donald Trump's first state visit to China, coming at a "historic moment" after the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, is expected to be a successful trip with significant results in trade, the Korean Peninsula and other issues, China's top envoy in Washington said on Monday.

Trump is expected to arrive in Beijing on Nov 8 for what Ambassador Cui Tiankai called a "state visit-plus". It will feature talks, a military honor guard and formal banquet and some "special arrangements", Cui said at a briefing. China will reciprocate the hospitality the US president and the first family showed Chinese leaders at the April meeting at the Mar-a-Lago resort in Palm Beach, Florida, he said.

Cui said the recent congress reaffirmed China's commitment to following a path of peaceful development, a strategy of opening-up and efforts to build a community with a shared future for humankind.
