Joe Biden has invited Xi Jinping to San Francisco next month for the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) summit. The White House said Biden told Wang that Washington and Beijing must “manage competition in the relationship responsibly and maintain open lines of communication.”

Amid the escalating Israel-Hamas conflict in the Middle East, Mr. Biden also "stressed that the United States and China must work together to address global challenges."

The White House released a photo of Biden and Wang shaking hands. Journalists were not allowed into the meeting, which also included Secretary of State Anthony Blinken and National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan.

National Security Council spokesman John Kirby told reporters there was no confirmation yet that Xi Jinping would meet with Joe Biden in San Francisco.

However, Mr Kirby said the hour-long meeting in the White House Roosevelt Room was a “positive development and a good opportunity to continue the conversation”. He added that the Israel-Hamas war was “certainly on the agenda”, as were global topics such as climate change.

Wang Yi said after meeting Blinken on Thursday that he wanted to “stabilize US-China relations” and “reduce misunderstandings” after years of tensions. Acknowledging that differences would still emerge, he said China would respond “calmly because we believe that what is right and what is wrong is not determined by which side is stronger or who has a louder voice.”

Joe Biden and Xi Jinping have not been in contact since their meeting in Bali, Indonesia in November 2022. The tense relationship between the US and China has been one of the world's major issues for many years.
