President Joe Biden is set to meet with Chinese President Xi Jinping for the final time, marking a significant moment for reflection on a relationship that began over a decade ago. The two leaders first connected during a long meal in Chengdu, an episode that has left a lasting impression on President Biden.
In his speeches over the past four years, Biden has often recounted a poignant moment when he defined America with a single word, 'Possibilities,' in response to Xi's question. As the leaders prepare to meet, looking back on their history may prove more fruitful than attempting to predict the future of their nations' relationship.
