President Barack Obama's month of June had a heavy international-relations feel, as he hosted Chinese President Xi Jinping and took a pair of trips overseas.
The month began with Obama hosting Jinping in California for a two-day summit. He also went overseas high-profile trips to the G8 summit in Northern Ireland and Africa, which served as the President's first extended trip to the continent.
