California Gov. Gavin Newsom met Chinese President Xi Jinping on Wednesday to discuss climate change, raising hopes that China and the United States can find common ground ahead of an APEC summit and COP28 climate meeting next month.
Xi and President Joe Biden are expected to meet at the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit in San Francisco in November, although the meeting has not been confirmed.
There were "strategic red lines" in the relationship between the world's top two greenhouse gas emitters, but both sides were capable of managing them, he added. Climate cooperation between the two countries has been disrupted in recent years, with Chinese officials insisting that climate issues could not be treated in isolation from the broader diplomatic and trade disputes between the two sides.
