House Republicans urge Biden to make demands of Xi Jinping ahead of meeting next week

WASHINGTON — Republicans on the House Select Committee on China sent a letter Wednesday to President Joe Biden ahead of his scheduled meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping next week, urging him to shift policy toward China and “challenge Beijing” to prove that it wants to improve relations with the U.S. Committee Chair Rep. Mike Gallagher, R-Wis.

The meeting comes after the president met with Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi at the White House last month.
