Chinese President Xi Jinping is set to meet US President Joe Biden on the sidelines of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit in San Francisco. Expectations for the summit are modest, with experts hopeful that it will lead to the formal resumption of military-to-military relations between the two countries. The talks will focus on strengthening communication and managing competition responsibly to prevent conflict in the US-China relationship. Other topics of discussion may include Taiwan, the South China Sea, trade, technology, semiconductors, and global issues such as the Israel-Hamas conflict and Russia's aggression in Ukraine.
