"As leaders of our two nations we share a responsibility, in my view, to show that China and the United States can manage our differences, prevent competition from becoming anything of a sort of conflict and define ways to work together on urgent global issues that require our mutual cooperation. And I believe this is critical in the sake of our two countries and the sake of the international community," Biden said.
"The world expects, I believe, China and the United States to play key roles in addressing global challenges from climate changes to food security, and for us to be able to work together. The Unites States stands ready to do just that, to work with you, if that is what you desire," he said.
"Today at our meeting, I am ready to have an honest and detailed exchange of views with you on issues of strategic importance to China-US relations, as well as regional and global issues. I look forward to our joint work to return bilateral relations to the path of healthy development for the benefit of the peoples of the two countries," the Chinese president said.
"Humanity is facing unprecedented challenges, the world is at a crossroads; and where to go is a question that not only we, but all countries are thinking about. The world expects China and the United States to properly manage their relationship, and our meeting attracted attention around the world," Xi said.
