Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen on Thursday began two days of talks with Chinese Vice Premier He Lifeng in San Francisco, a meeting that Republicans have expressed concerns about.

It is the second meeting between Mr. He and Ms. Yellen since July, when the treasury secretary visited China. Their talks come just days before the start of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) summit, where President Joe Biden and Chinese leader Xi Jinping are expected to meet.
