United States Secretary Of State Antony Blinken worries about the fact that Russia has an active partner in China in its military operations, and this is not in line with the thawing relations between the US and China. In his tour to Beijing, the US Secretary of State Wang Yi, who is China’s top diplomat, focused on what were the contentious topics.
Pondering China as the primary resource of crucial elements embedded in Russian weapon systems that fuel their aggressive war efforts in Ukraine, Blinken underlines Chinese appreciation for the role.
However, China neither relinquishes nor provides any direct arms to Russia’s war for Ukraine. Yet, Blinken explains the importance of China’s exports of dual-use goods that may increase the threat Russia poses to European countries.
As part of the regular talks, the US representatives spoke on the emerging situation while the Russian and Chinese officials listened. Russian Minister of Defence Sergey Shoigu has met with his Chinese counterpart Zhong Kejian to widen the Russia-China strategic partnership in the defense sphere and increase coordination in the Asia region in the way to counter US activities coveted for destabilization.
The conditional character of the American sentencing in light of her weakening relations with the government is questionable. U.S. officials remind critics that such help may weaken ties between two countries, which lately have improved through a gradual process of normalizing after sharp conflicts in the past.
Progress on controversial issues, such as trade disputant China, will be continued, but theoretical stuff, for instance, citizen-to-citizen interactions, will be talked about.
Secretary Blinken’s interview revealed that the latter had met with Chinese President Xi Jinping, who moved to point out China’s growing concern over the U.S.’s efforts to halt China’s economic progress. Both of them observed how coming up on the fundamental ones is the way to leverage and improve the China-US relationship.
Such talks represent a need to manage the complexity of both agreements and coming from the meeting between the leaders President Joe Biden and President Xi this spring. Further deliberation on the increasing use of AI between nations resulting in drug supply restrictions is also on the agenda.
