america's top diplomat, antony blinken, has been meeting with the chinese president xi jinping in beijing. their talks covered several areas of tension between the two countries. president xi told secretary blinken that china and the us should be partners rather than rivals. mr blinken for his part raised concerns over china's support for russia in its invasion of ukraine. he also raised what he described as china's unfair trade practices in a number of key industries that will drive the 21st century economy. solar panels, electric vehicles and the batteries that power them. china alone is producing more than 100% of global demand for these products, flooding markets, undermining competition, putting at risk livelihoods and businesses around the world. now, this is a movie that we've seen before, and we know how it ends, with american businesses shuttered and american jobs lost. president biden will not let this happen on his watch. let's speak now to our north america business correspondent, erin delmore. in the background to this meeting was a warning we heard from president biden recen
