US President Joe Biden said he’ll enter an intense meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping on Monday with a stronger hand, after US voters returned control of the Senate to his party with the re-election of Nevada’s Catherine Cortez Masto.
“I know I’m coming in stronger,” Biden said of the Xi meeting as he celebrated the victory in Cambodia, where he’s attending a summit with Asian leaders.
