Pair to ‘discuss efforts to deepen lines of communication’, White House says, with Taiwan and human rights set to be discussed
Joe Biden will meet his Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping on Monday on the sidelines of the G20 summit, the White House has said, in their first face-to-face talks since the US leader became president.
“The leaders will discuss efforts to maintain and deepen lines of communication,” as well as how to “responsibly manage competition and work together where our interests align, especially on transnational challenges,” White House spokeswoman Karine Jean-Pierre said in a statement.
