“Washington and Beijing could sign dozens of agreements following US President Donald Trump’s visit to China”
VERIFIED BY REFERENCE
The claim states that Washington and Beijing 'could' sign dozens of agreements, which is a prediction of future possibility. While evidence confirms a state visit occurred (Wikipedia) and Trump described it as 'very successful' (TASS), the specific prospect of 'dozens of agreements' is a forward-looking statement and cannot be proven true or false as a factual event.

SINGLE SOURCE
