US President Joe Biden and Chinese President Xi Jinping arrived in Lima, Peru, for the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) summit. Their meeting on Saturday is expected to be the last before Biden potentially hands power back to Donald Trump. The summit will focus on trade and investment, but uncertainty looms over Trump's return to a confrontational trade policy with China. Trump has threatened significant tariffs on Chinese imports, raising concerns about the impact on both economies. Xi will inaugurate a Chinese-funded port in Peru, while Biden plans to meet with key allies Japan and South Korea. Mexico's President Claudia Sheinbaum will not attend due to a diplomatic dispute with Peru.
