In the next few minutes we're expecting to hear from US Secretary of State Antony Blinken following his meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping. Next, Blinken says the US and China have seen "important progress" since the meeting between President Biden and President Xi in California last year.
Earlier the pair met in Beijing to mark the end of Blinken's three day trip to China, with Xi telling him that the two countries should be partners, not rivals. "That is my focus," Blinken says.
We'll be bringing you the key lines from Blinken's news conference and you'll be able to watch it live at the top of this page, so stay with us. He adds they must to continue to "communicate clearly about our differences", noting it being important to "minimise the risk of miscalculation and misunderstandings".
Blinken says he did so on this visit and vows he and the US government will continue to do so going forward.
