One of the most highly anticipated diplomatic events of the year
took place this week in a mansion outside San Francisco.
President Biden and Xi Jinping, China’s top leader, met to repair

Edward Wong, a diplomatic correspondent for The New York Times,
discusses the effort to bring the relationship back from the
