Blinken's high-stakes visit to Beijing amidst US-China tension.
TL;DR Summary
US Secretary of State Antony Blinken is set to travel to Beijing this weekend in his first trip to China under the Biden administration, marking a rare high-level meeting between the US and China in a period of heightened tension. Little is expected to emerge from the talks themselves, but Blinken's Beijing visit helps pave the way for additional meetings, including a potential one-to-one between US President Joe Biden and his Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping later this year.
