  • Story Text: U.S. National Security Advisor Susan Rice held talks with China's top diplomat, State Councillor Yang Jiechi, in Beijing on Friday (August 28), the first day of her two-day trip to the Chinese capital.
    The two sides shook hands at the Diaoyutai state guesthouse before sitting down to talks.
    Rice is set to discuss a "range of bilateral, regional and global issues" with Chinese officials during her trip, the White House said in a statement earlier in the week.
    Her visit comes ahead of President Barack Obama and Chinese President Xi Jinping's U.S. meeting next month.
    Xi is expected to spend about a week in the United States in the second half of September. He will hold talks with Obama in Washington and also attend the U.N. General Assembly.
