The president of the United States, Joe Biden, asked his Chinese counterpart, Xi Jinping, on Monday to find ways to work together to prevent the rivalry between the two powers from turning into a conflict.
“Our two nations share a responsibility to manage our differences. We must prevent competition from turning into conflict. We must find ways to work together on pressing global issues that require our cooperation,” Biden said at the start of a meeting in Bali, Indonesia. . .
Biden and Xi opened their first face-to-face meeting since the US president took office nearly two years ago with a handshake at a luxury hotel in Indonesia, where they will attend the G20 summit, which brings together the leaders of the more developed countries. and the major emerging powers.
