Chinese President Xi Jinping said on Monday that China-U.S. ties would impact the "destiny of mankind", as he met with a group of American senators in Beijing.

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer is the latest high-level American official to go to China as Washington seeks to ease tensions with Beijing, leading a six-person delegation.

"How China and the United States get along with each other in the face of a world of change and turmoil will determine the future and destiny of mankind," Mr. Xi said as he met with Mr. Schumer at Beijing's Great Hall of the People.
