Xi signals that China will send new pandas to the US

Associated Press  

SAN FRANCISCO — Chinese President Xi Jinping signaled that China will send new pandas to the United States, calling them “envoys of friendship between the Chinese and American peoples.” “We are ready to continue our cooperation with the United States on panda conservation, and do our best to meet the wishes of the Californians so as to deepen the friendly ties between our two peoples,” Xi said Wednesday during a dinner speech with business leaders. Chinese President Xi Jinping is signaling China will send new pandas to the United States. The National Zoo’s three giant pandas, Mei Xiang, Tian Tian and their cub Xiao Qi Ji, eight days ago began their long trip to China. He added that he learned the San Diego Zoo and people in California “very much look forward to welcoming pandas back.” Xi is in California to attend a summit of Indo-Pacific leaders and for his meeting with Biden.
