CCTV reported: "on the evening of November 14, President Xi Jinping left Beijing on a private

 plane. "At the invitation of the US President, Biden will go to San Francisco for a meeting of

 the presidents of China and the United States," he said.

The two presidents are meeting in San Francisco, California, for the first time in a year,

 despite trade tensions, sanctions and the Taiwan issue causing differences between the two

 largest economic powers in the world.

The positive momentum of Xi and Biden's November 2022 talks in Bali was derailed when

 the United States shot down what was suspected to be a Chinese spy balloon, in an incident

 that led to the postponement of a planned visit by US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken.

Since then, a series of high-level diplomatic moves, including Blinken's recent visit to Beijing

 in June, have signaled that the two sides are looking to mend ties.

On Monday, the Chinese Foreign Ministry said that the summit of the two leaders will

 include"in-depth communication on strategic, general and confusing issues in the

 framework of China-US relations, as well as major issues related to global peace and

 development".
