YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Chinese President Xi Jinping has received former US secretary of state Henry Kissinger. The two met in the same state guest house where Kissinger first met the then-Beijing leadership over 50 years ago. Kissinger's talks back then played a key role in the US and Beijing normalising relations.

Washington says this visit is private. But it comes amid a series of high level meetings between US and Chinese leaders, aimed at difusing tensions after relations hit a low point earlier this year. At his 100 years of age, Kissinger is still a diplomatic heavyweight. The White House has expressed regret that Kissinger got more of an audience in Beijing than some sitting US officials.
