Chinese President Xi Jinping will attend a virtual summit on climate change today at the invitation of U.S. President Joe Biden.
Foreign Ministry1 spokesperson Wang Wenbin says the Chinese President will deliver a speech at the event.

China has prioritized COVID-19 vaccination7 for medical workers since last year. So far, the vaccination rate among health workers has exceeded 80 percent.
Mi Feng says that as new variants8 of the virus continue to emerge, China still faces challenges in preventing imported cases and domestic resurgence9.
The U.S. Justice Department is opening a sweeping10 investigation11 into policing practices in Minneapolis.
U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland made the announcement after former officer Derek Chauvin was convicted for George Floyd's killing12.

He adds that if a pattern of unconstitutional or unlawful policing is found, they will seek a federal court order forcing the department to make changes to avoid further violations13.
