The purpose of this meeting is to test whether the two world leaders can affect the downward spiral in relations between the two countries at a time when the world is experiencing turbulent times. 

The White House views this meeting as a positive inclination in the bilateral relationship between Washington and Beijing, media reports suggest.

However, reports also suggest that though the meeting between Biden and Jinping is a positive sign in the relationship between the US and China, the talks might not soften the world's most consequential bilateral relationship.
