The presidents of China and the United States have met in Beijing without any major breakthrough on climate change or trade friction between the two nations. However, President Hu Jintao and President Barack Obama did agree to cooperate on fighting protectionism and ending the global economic crisis. They also promised to cooperate to get a firm agreement at next month's UN climate summit in Copenhagen.
