Washington: Chinese President Hu Jintao has arrived in the US for four day visit on Tuesday.
He landed at Andrews Air Force Base outside Washington and was welcomed by Vice President Joe Biden. Hu was to have dinner with Obama and Biden Tuesday evening.
Hu’s visit include a wide range of economic and international security discussions when he meets President Barack Obama.
Hu is scheduled to arrive at the White House Wednesday morning to begin his official state visit and day full of activities. There will be an arrival ceremony followed by meetings with Obama and a subsequent press conference.
Behind all of the public display, talks between the two countries are expected to be contentious. The economic powerhouses have had sharp disagreements over economic and monetary policies.
North Korea’s nuclear activities and recent tension on the peninsula will also be high on the agenda. US Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton said ahead of the summit that the two countries will be looking to intensify cooperation on a range of issues globally as well as in Asia.
