President Joe Biden speaks about the attacks on Israel
Audio By Carbonatix
Just as he was walking off the podium at the press conference, Biden took a question from a reporter who asked whether he would still call Xi a dictator.
Biden responded: "Well look, he is, he's a dictator in the sense that he is a guy who runs a country that is a Communist country, based on a form of government that is totally different from ours."
Biden had caused some furore in June this year when he called Xi a dictator a day after their top officials had talks in Beijing.
At the time, it upset Chinese officials who called his comments then "extremely absurd and irresponsible".
