Xi Jinping used his final meeting with Joe Biden to send a clear message to Donald Trump: China wants to be friends, but is ready for a fight if necessary.
With Biden set to leave the White House in January, China’s leader took Saturday’s meeting as a chance to spell out his approach toward Trump.
That entails finding a way for the world’s two biggest economies to get along, with Xi emphasizing that the US and China shouldn’t fight a “new Cold War,” and a conflict between them isn’t inevitable.
