Biden-Xi call expected Thursday with Taiwan threats looming

President Biden and Chinese President Xi Jinping are scheduled to hold a phone call on Thursday, according to two people familiar with the matter.

Why it matters: This will be the fifth call between the leaders since Biden took office, and comes at a time of heightened tensions over Taiwan due to a planned visit to the island by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. Russia's invasion of Ukraine and U.S. tariffs on China are also likely to be on the agenda.
