He also pointed out that "China and the United States, as the world's two largest economies and permanent members of the UN Security Council, should strengthen communication and cooperation", not only to handle their respective domestic affairs, but also to assume their due international responsibilities.

Biden was sitting at a conference table in the Roosevelt Room of the White House. When Xi Jinping appeared on the big screen, he smiled and said, "Maybe I should start more formally. I have never been so formal between you and me. "He also said, "You and I have already talked about this-all countries must abide by the same rules."
