Earlier today, Beijing's Foreign Ministry confirmed that Xi Jinping will attend the G20 summit next week and that he will be meeting with Biden in a first since Xi got re-elected as the CCP's leader this year for a third term. 

Yesterday, White House Spokesperson Karine Jean-Pierre confirmed that Biden and Xi will meet on the sidelines of the G20 summit to discuss a range of regional and global issues to "discuss efforts to maintain and deepen lines of communication," as well as how to "responsibly manage competition and work together where our interests align."

Tensions have been mounting between the world's two biggest economies since US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi visited the island of Taiwan in early August.

China condemned Pelosi's trip, which it regarded as a gesture of support for separatism, and launched large-scale military exercises in the vicinity of the island.

The US has recently approved $1.1 billion for a potential arms deal with Taiwan which Taipei intends to use to increase its security budget.

It has also waged a massive campaign aimed at undermining China's tech dominance by tightening "export controls" vis-à-vis Beijing and barring the sale of Chinese-made memory chips on the US market.
