Chinese President Xi Jinping met with U.S. President Joe Biden in Lima, Peru, outlining four "red lines" that the U.S. must not cross. These include issues related to Taiwan, human rights, China's development rights, and its political system. Xi emphasized the importance of maintaining stability in U.S.-China relations and warned against a potential "new Cold War." He urged the U.S. to handle the Taiwan issue with care, particularly in light of Taiwan's pro-independence leadership. Biden acknowledged their differing views but stressed the need for open dialogue. He raised concerns about North Korean troop deployments in Russia and reiterated the U.S. stance against unilateral changes to Taiwan's status.
