UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer has met China’s President Xi Jinping at the G20 summit, and emphasised the importance of a "strong UK-China relationship" for both countries.
The meeting was the first time a UK prime minister has met the Chinese president in person since 2018, following a recent souring in relations.
The PM signalled a desire for greater business co-operation, particularly on "areas of mutual cooperation" such as international stability, climate change and economic growth.
Xi told Starmer that the two countries should commit to mutual respect and openness, saying: "China and the UK have broad space for co-operation across various domains."
