President Biden is holding a rare solo press conference in California on Wednesday night after a day of meetings with Chinese President Xi Jinping.
The world leaders of the two largest economies and their top aides met for hours at the Filoli Historic House & Garden in Woodside, California, just outside of San Francisco. Resuming military-to-military communications and cracking down on fentanyl were key objectives for Mr. Biden heading into the talks.
The leaders are meeting on the sidelines of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation in San Francisco, where officials and heads of state from other leading economies will also meet this week. Mr. Biden frequently describes the United States' relationship with China as one of competition. While there are likely areas where the two nations cannot agree, there are also others, he says, like climate change, where they can cooperate.

"It was driving from Albuquerque up to Seattle that I got three very serious speeding tickets," he said.
The Trump administration on Saturday imposed 25% tariffs on imports from Canada and Mexico, while adding an additional 10% levy on goods from China. The salvo, which President Trump had threatened even before returning to power earlier this month, underlines his willingness to use trade policy even against some of the U.S.' largest economic allies.
