Biden will meet Chinese President Xi Jinping in person for the first time in a year on Wednesday during the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit in San Francisco.

"The president is determined to see the re-establishment of military-to-military ties because he believes it's in the U.S. national security interest," Sullivan said in an interview with CBS

Sullivan said on CNN's "State of the Union" that Biden would seek to "advance the ball" on military ties during his meeting with Xi, but declined to provide further details.

The Biden-Xi meeting is expected to cover global issues from the Israel-Hamas war to Russia's invasion of Ukraine, North Korea's ties with Russia, Taiwan, the Indo-Pacific, human rights, fentanyl production, artificial intelligence, as well as "fair" trade and economic relations, a senior U.S. official said.

    SF cleaning up their house before guests come over to stay... I would love to see chinese media(or documentary or something) going to SF and on one street seeing a bunch of luxery cars, fancy dressed people, expensive ass restaurants and literally next street over bunch of homeless struggling to survive and do some story... maybe even pull some "fake and dystopian city"(like America loves to do with China and DPRK) stuff before and after the "clean up"

      Chinese media never publishes shit like this even though it's so obvious out of what I assume to be some weird honor code only they follow (they literally banned making korean war movies in the early 2000s to "avoid harming the feelings of the American people"). I wish one day CCTV or something would just walk around the Tenderloin or Skid Row with a camera or some smth and get all the liberals to stfu but they'd never do it.

        i feel the same way.. if they could just manage to scoot a few blocks off the beaten path and make it to the Tenderloin they'd get just a glimpse of what it's really like here

          Tbh I feel like the Tenderloin would be the nice part of the downtown area in most midwestern cities.

        Tbf, this policy has clearly since been reversed
