President Xi Jinping underlined on Monday the joint responsibility between him and US President Joe Biden in anchoring the future direction of bilateral relations and bringing ties on an upward track.

Xi made the remarks as he met with Biden on the sidelines of the G20 Summit in Bali, their first face-to-face meeting since Biden took office in January 2021.

“I look forward to working together with you, Mr. President, in bringing China-US relations back to a track of healthy and stable development, ushering more benefits to our two nations and the world,” Xi said.

Xi added the current situation in China-US relations does not fit into the fundamental interests of the two nations and their people, nor does it meet the expectations from the international community.

“Statesmen should think about and make clear the direction of development of their own nations as well as ways of getting along with other nations and the world,” he said, adding it is the common expectation of the international community for Beijing and Washington to properly handle their relations.
