US President Joe Biden will meet Chinese President Xi Jinping in Indonesia to discuss a range of regional and global issues, including responsible competition, the said White House on Thursday.
The meeting Monday will take place on the sidelines of the G20 summit in Bali.
"The Leaders will discuss efforts to maintain and deepen lines of communication between the United States and the PRC, responsibly manage competition, and work together where our interests align, especially on transnational challenges that affect the international community," spokeswoman Karine Jean-Pierre said in a statement.
Biden will raise Taiwan and "human rights violations and more broadly, the concerns we and our allies and partners have about China's harmful economic practices," according to a senior Biden official.
They are also expected to discuss Russia's war in Ukraine.
The meeting will be the first in-person get-together between the leaders since Biden took office.
"The president believes it is critical to build a floor for the relationship and ensure that there are rules of the road that bound our competition," said the official.
