When President Joe Biden meets for the final time Saturday with his Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping, his aides say the moment will be ripe for reflection on a relationship that began more than a decade ago,

The two leaders had what could be their final meeting in a long relationship, but often seemed to be speaking more to the president-elect than each other.

Xi Jinping told Joe Biden that China was prepared to work with the new administration of Donald Trump to manage differences in his final meeting with his US counterpart.
