Starmer Set to Meet Xi Jinping at G20 Summit Amid Trade Tensions
Keir Starmer, the UK Prime Minister, is reportedly set to meet with Chinese President Xi Jinping at the upcoming G20 summit in Brazil.** This would be the first meeting between the two leaders since 2018, following Foreign Secretary David Lammy's recent visit to China. The potential meeting comes as Starmer prepares to take a 'pragmatic' approach to trade with China, despite criticism from those who argue that he is 'kowtowing' to the communist regime. China is Brazil's top trading partner, and the G20 summit provides an opportunity for leaders to discuss global economic issues. Will Starmer's meeting with Xi Jinping lead to a thaw in UK-China relations?
