Chris Luxon will be meeting with President Xi Jinping and other key members of the Chinese Government while in Beijing next week. 

After meetings wrap up in Shanghai, Luxon will be heading to the NATO summit in Europe.

NZ Herald political editor Thomas Coughlan explained why Luxon's carrying out these trips - and what they could mean for New Zealand.
