Chinese President Xi Jinping met U.S. President Joe Biden in person today in Bali, Indonesia amid heightened tensions and underscored the need to explore the “right way, set the right course for the China-U.S. relationship in a new era” and put it on an upward trajectory.
In his opening remarks, Biden said he and Xi had a responsibility to show their nations could “manage our differences”, prevent competition from becoming conflict and identify areas of mutual cooperation.
