Xi, Biden to Meet on Sidelines of APEC Summit in San Francisco

What’s new: President Xi Jinping will hold a summit with his U.S. counterpart Joe Biden next week on the sidelines of the 30th Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) meeting in San Francisco, according to China’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs in a statement Friday.

The summit, which the White House said will be held on Nov. 15, will be the first face-to-face interaction between Xi and Biden since their meeting on the sidelines of the G-20 Summit in Bali last November, as the world’s two largest economies renew efforts to stabilize relations.
