Third-term Chinese leader Xi Jinping is due to meet United States President Joe Biden face-to-face for the first time since Biden was elected to the White House, with the US leader buoyed by a stronger-than-expected performance in the midterm elections.The two men will meet in Bali, Indonesia, on Monday, ahead of a Group of 20 (G20) summit overshadowed by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, which has further strained the relationship between the US and China. The two countries are also at odds over issues including Taiwan, North Korea and trade.On the eve of his meeting with Xi, Biden told Asian leaders in Cambodia that US communication lines with China would remain open to prevent conflict but that the talks were expected to be tough.
