US National Security Advisor Meets With Top Chinese Officials by VOA News The U.S. national security advisor has begun holding meetings in Beijing with top Chinese officials on the first day of her two-day trip. Susan Rice met with China's top diplomat Yang Jiechi on Friday and is set to meet later in the day with President Xi Jinping. Rice's visit comes ahead of President Xi's visit to Washington next month. Her visit also coincides with the slowing Chinese economy that has panicked stock markets around the world.
