President Joe Biden and Chinese President Xi Jinping are expected to hold an in-person meeting at this week’s Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) summit amid tensions between the two countries. The meeting of the two world leaders comes amid heightened economic and geopolitical competition between the U.S. and China, particularly over advanced technologies and China’s military build-up that has America’s allies in Asia on edge.
The APEC leaders summit is being held in San Francisco and runs from Nov. 15-17, while the APEC CEO summit will be held Nov. 14-16. Xi, the chairman of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), has yet to confirm his attendance but is widely expected to attend. White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre confirmed at a press conference late last month that Biden and Xi will meet during the summit, although it’s unclear when that will occur.
