For almost two years after Joe Biden and Kamala Harris were sworn in as POTUS and Veep, there were no face to face meetings with Xi Jinping, who anointed himself as China’s supreme leader possibly for life at the Communist party congress last month.
Then, voila!, two in-person encounters with Xi, for Joe and Kamala.
Biden, who turned 80 on Sunday, November 20, had a 240-minute long meeting with Xi on the sidelines of the G20 summit in Bali on November 14 night.
After Joe returned to Washington, DC — his eldest grand-daughter Naomi was getting married on the White House lawns on Saturday — Kamala took his place at the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit in Thailand on Saturday, November 19, 2022.
