Bipartisan US delegation visits China amid tensions, seeks level playing field for businesses and meeting with President Xi

A bipartisan delegation of US senators led by Majority Leader Chuck Schumer arrived in China, the first such visit since 2019.
The delegation aims to address issues like trade reciprocity, advanced technologies, human rights, fentanyl production, and China's international role.
They hope to meet with President Xi Jinping in Beijing to lay groundwork for a potential Biden-Xi summit in November.
China welcomed the visit and said it could facilitate dialogue between the countries' legislative bodies.
The lawmakers discussed allowing US companies to compete freely in China as Chinese firms do in the US.
