President Biden Calls Chinese President Xi To Avoid Conflict Amid Rising Tensions

 AFP: Biden, Xi talk to avoid US-China 'conflict:' W.House 

US President Joe Biden talked with his Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping for the first time in seven months Thursday, urging they ensure that "competition" between the two powers does not become "conflict," the White House said. 

During the call, Biden's message was that the United States wants to ensure "the dynamic remains competitive and that we don't have any situation in the future where we veer into unintended conflict," a senior US administration official told reporters. 

This was the leaders' first call since February, when they talked for two hours, shortly after Biden took over from Donald Trump.

WNU Editor: This call was done to warn China that the U.S. is not going to diminish its role in Asia after being defeated in Afghanistan. 

My prediction. 

Chinese President Xi has his own agenda and goals to achieve. He has no personal relationship with President Biden, and while he will take note on the significance of this phone call, I am willing to bet that he has probably already moved on.

He probably lost track within minutes and thought he was ordering takeout

What to expect from Xi Jinping? Receiving a call from Alzheimer in Chief he has to be polite and forget the call the next minute. On top of that, this call could be understood as a fear from the white House and just emboldening Xi in its agenda.

Does anyone see an empty headed, regurgitating style here? Same person gets up, sit down in their dirty whities and starts spamming article headlines or its poem format.

The first 3 were all good posts. One and three were good comedy based on truth.

Number two scares me. Xi does see us as scared. He will smell the fear and that worries me.

I'll live outside the US and 5:45 will live in the US with spoiled mRNA vaccine and no electricity.

Two to for regular commenters picked up on my post. One of them is really good analyst, so they probably already have seen the pattern. Just to make sure I made it obvious. That is what really bugs you. That you could spew and non one hears you. At least you have your NSFW pictures to fall back on.

Mr Anon, who views my site on a regular basis it seems now has to say nasty things about it. Tip: do not go to my site if it so offends you.

I do not go to your site and a server logs could prove as much. Your site could be a honey trap. So why go?

Also, why a blog that has science, news stories that I can get elsewhere without rubbing elbows with people like you?
