BALI — China and the United States are two major countries with different histories, cultures, social systems and development paths, and there have been and will continue to be differences between the two countries, Chinese President Xi Jinping said in Bali on Nov 14.

However, such differences should not become an obstacle to growing China-US relations, Xi said during his meeting with US President Joe Biden ahead of the Group of 20 summit in Indonesia's resort island of Bali.
