China's new president, Xi Jinping, and Barack Obama will meet during an informal summit on June 7th and 8th. The meeting will beheld at Sunnylands, an estate in the desert town of Rancho Mirage, California, that once belonged to Walter Annenberg, a publisher. Never before has such a prolonged informal encounter between the two countries' leaders been scheduled. American officials are encouraged, however, by Xi's willingness to engage in such freewheeling diplomacy. His predecessor, Hu Jintao, shunned it, preferring to stick to formal agendas. Unlike Hu, a dour apparatchik, Xi has the poise and confidence of one born to power: his father was one of Mao's comrades-in-arms. But it has not been easy for Western officials to make out how Xi plans to wield his power; hence the importance (as the Americans see it) of the summit in California. Obama will be encouraged by Xi's seeming willingness to tackle tough economic reforms that Hu, as president, lacked either the courage or the conviction to deal with. At the same time Xi has shown no sign of willingness to reform China politically.
