British foreign minister says he expects to meet Chinese vice president this week

British Foreign Secretary James Cleverly said he expected to meet China's Vice President Han Zheng when senior Chinese figures visit London for King Charles' coronation later this week.

"I suspect that I will," Cleverly told BBC Radio when asked if he would be meeting the Chinese vice president.

"And when I do, I will discuss a whole range of things just as I do when I meet other Chinese officials, including those areas where we have points of criticism."
