Top Chinese Diplomat Visiting Washington Amid Tensions Between Beijing, DC

 

Washington Post: China’s top diplomat to visit D.C. amid tensions over South China Sea, Israel 

Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi will visit Washington this week, the State Department said Monday, the highest-level visit by a Chinese official since tensions spiked early this year after a Chinese spy balloon floated across American airspace. 

The three days of meetings, starting Thursday, are the latest sign that Beijing is laying the groundwork for a possible visit by Chinese President Xi Jinping to a summit of Asia-Pacific leaders in San Francisco next month, which would be his first trip to the United States since 2017.

WNU Editor: There is a summit of Asia-Pacific leaders in San Francisco next month, a summit that a Chinese leader would usually attend. But my gut is telling me that President Xi will not attend this summit even though the media is saying otherwise .... A top Chinese diplomat will visit Washington ahead of a possible meeting between Biden and Xi (AP). Current U.S. - China relations are in the toilet, and the leadership do not want to give any credit to the Biden administration, and they certainly do not want to meet President Biden. 

But in the event that President Xi does go to the US next month, I will see this as a signal that the Chinese are seeing the entire global order unraveling, and are making this trip as a last attempt to reverse this deterioration of global relations.

  7. I wonder if Wang Yi is here Soley to remind Biden how compromised he is and he best tread carefully.

    and yes, there may not be probable cause that he is compromised by the Chinese but certainly reasonable suspicion so as to warrant further investigation.

    Like the sun and the moon, the truth always rises so in time we shall see.

  8. Biden is compromised? meantime, three of Trum,p's lawyers have now turned against him and will give evidence for his trial.

  9. Interesting comment by Ron. I wish I would have thought of it. :/

    The 3 Trump lawyers are little people without the resources of the government. A 4 month trial could bankrupt them.

    What most people are chalking it up to is lawfare. I really wish 4:03 would open his pie hole in a bar.

    When the beauty pageant winner without a career and who can't stay married went to court she was backed by a billionaire. Would the outcome be different if these 3 were backed by a billionaire?

    Meanwhile Ruby Freeman and her relative run scot free.

    Biden has been walking very slow.
