U.S. President Joe Biden began a virtual meeting with Chinese leader Xi Jinping on Monday. Here are some of their opening remarks delivered via video conference.
"It seems to me our responsibility as leaders of China and the United States is to ensure that our competition between our countries does not veer into conflict, whether intended or unintended, just simple, straightforward competition."
"e believe - and you and I have talked about this - all countries have to play by the same rules of the road, and why the United States is always going to stand up for our interests and values and those of our allies and partners." "Right now both China and the United States are at critical stages of development ... and we face multiple challenges together. As the world's two largest economies and the permanent members of the U.N. Security Council, China and the United States need to increase communication and cooperation."
