US President Joe Biden and Xi Jinping, his Chinese counterpart, discussed on Monday efforts to wind down simmering tensions in their bilateral relationship while managing increasing competition.
During their meeting on the sidelines of the G20 summit in Bali, Indonesia, Biden objected to what the White House said are China’s “coercive and increasingly aggressive actions toward Taiwan,” which it said undermined “peace and stability across the Taiwan Strait and in the broader region, and jeopardize global prosperity."
In a statement on the roughly three-hour session, the White House said Biden told Xi that the U.S would "continue to compete vigorously" with China but that "competition should not veer into conflict." The meeting came as the superpowers aimed to "manage" differences between them as they compete for global influence amid increasing economic and security tensions.
Biden scheduled a news conference later Monday to discuss the meeting, which came in the midst of a seven-day, round-the-world trip.
