San Francisco Implements Security Measures for Xi-Biden APEC Summit

San Francisco, a Democrat-run city that has criticized walls, has cleaned up its streets and erected steel security walls ahead of Chinese President Xi Jinping's visit for the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) summit. The city has also removed homeless individuals from the downtown area. The Chinese government has posted 100 private security guards around the luxury hotel where their diplomats and business executives are staying. The city expects the summit to draw over 20,000 people and generate significant revenue. Protesters have gathered, with some demanding the release of Tibet and denouncing Xi as a dictator. President Joe Biden and Xi are expected to discuss various issues, including human rights, trade, and geopolitical tensions.
