President Biden confirmed on Wednesday that he plans to meet face-to-face with Chinese President Xi Jinping next week in Bali, Indonesia, where the two leaders are attending the G-20 summit.
Since he took office, President Biden has only been able to meet with Chinese President Xi Jinping virtually — like in this Nov. 2021 file photo — or by phone.
Biden has focused his foreign policy on countering the economic and national security threats posed by China. He told reporters at a press conference that he will not make any concessions with Beijing, but wants to find out Xi's"red lines" are in the relationship. The leaders have not met in person since Biden became president. When he was vice president, Biden spent a lot of time meeting with Xi – a fact he regularly trumpets – but Xi only recently resumed traveling outside his country after the COVID-19 pandemic."I've told them I'm looking for competition, not conflict," Biden said."And so what I want to do with him when we talk is lay out what each of our red lines are.
The administration has been working for months to try to get the two leaders together in an effort to reduce tensions before they spiral out of control.I led a Congressional delegation to Taiwan to make crystal clear that America stands with the people of Taiwan – and all those committed to Democracy and human rights.
