WASHINGTON -- President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump are preparing to debate on Thursday, as they run neck-and-neck in the U.S. presidential campaign ahead of the election in November.

The election outcome is sure to have a huge impact on Asia, as Biden and Trump offer sharply different visions for America's role in the world, as well as management of trade and the U.S. economy, policy toward climate change and the development of technology.
