Biden, Xi meeting will be forum for 'intense diplomacy' amid tensions between US, China: Officials
Fox News
President Biden is set to meet with Chinese President Xi Jinping this week in California— a meeting that officials hope will ease tensions in the bilateral relationship between the United States and the People’s Republic of China, and one that comes at a time in need of “intense diplomacy."
The White House says Biden and Xi are expected to discuss the relationship between the United States and China, including the importance of maintaining "open lines of communication."

A senior administration official said the two leaders will also discuss "managing competition responsibly," along with a range of regional, global and transnational issues, including Russia’s war in Ukraine, the Israel-Hamas war, and the growing conflicts in the Middle East.
