Biden to urge Xi on North Korea's support for Russia at APEC summit in Peru
President Joe Biden is set to meet with Chinese leader Xi Jinping at the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit in Peru. Biden will urge Xi to persuade North Korea to reduce its support for Russia amid ongoing tensions related to the Ukraine war. This meeting is significant as it marks Biden's last discussion with Xi before leaving office. The two leaders will also address broader issues, including China's support for Russia, human rights, technology, and Taiwan. Biden's administration has expressed frustration with China's lack of action against North Korea, which has been increasing military cooperation with Russia. The meeting comes amid rising concerns over North Korea's missile tests and its military assistance to Russia.
