Biden and Xi to Hold Key Talks in Peru Amid Escalating US-China Tensions

US President Joe Biden and Chinese President Xi Jinping are set to meet in Peru to address rising tensions and critical global issues

On 16 November, US President Joe Biden will meet with Chinese President Xi Jinping in Lima, Peru, during the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) summit. 

The meeting comes amid heightened tensions between the two nations, with issues like Taiwan, the South China Sea, and Russia set to dominate the agenda.

The leaders will also address US calls for stronger Chinese cooperation in combating fentanyl trafficking, a serious contributor to overdose deaths in the US.

Despite intensifying competition, both Biden and Xi aim to manage their differences and prevent conflict, emphasizing the importance of open communication to maintain stability.

The summit is seen as a crucial chance for easing tensions and stabilizing US-China relations.
