Joe Biden, Xi Jinping meet at key summit before Trump takes office
The articles describe a meeting between US President Joe Biden and Chinese President Xi Jinping at a hotel in Lima, Peru, where they discussed various issues including trade disputes, cybercrimes, and tensions over Taiwan. Biden stated that China's goal of a stable and sustainable US-China relationship remains unchanged, while Xi Jinping pledged to work with the incoming US president-elect Donald Trump. This meeting marked the third time the two leaders have met in person since Biden took office. The talks have been described as "frank" and "candid" by Biden, indicating a willingness to address pressing issues. Xi's remarks were seen as a stern warning to the US as relations enter a new period of uncertainty after the American election. Trump has promised a more aggressive approach to Beijing, which could lead to increased tensions between the two countries.

These conversations prevent miscalculations, and they ensure the competition between our two countries will not veer into conflict — be competition, not conflict.
Our two countries cannot let any of this competition veer into conflict. That is our responsibility and over the last four years I think we've proven it's possible to have this relationship.
And you know what? We're going to get along great with China. We're going to get along good. I want to get along with them. President Xi was great until COVID came. Then, I wasn't so thrilled with him.
I charged China hundreds of billions of dollars in taxes and tariffs. They paid us.
Transitions are uniquely consequential moments in geopolitics. They're a time when competitors and adversaries can see possible opportunity.
We can see that the world has a lot of regional flashpoints that are ongoing and maybe Beijing sees this as … an opportunity to test their will and see if the world's support for Taiwan is strong enough.
