Recently re-elected Chinese leader Xi Jinping ignored US President Joe Biden’s proposal for a telephone conversation.
About it writes the edition Reuters.
President Biden said last month after a US fighter jet shot down a Chinese balloon over US soil that he plans to talk to the Chinese leader about the episode and “clear the air” between the two superpowers.
Reuters indicates that Washington is seeking to reset relations with Beijing. Therefore, the telephone conversation between Biden and Jinping should be the leaders’ first contact since meeting on the sidelines of the G20 summit last November in Bali.
However, according to Reuters sources, despite the efforts of American diplomats, the Chinese showed no interest in organizing such a conversation.
This week, Xi visited Moscow, where he joined with war criminal dictator Vladimir Putin to criticize the United States.
Recall that the situation is also complicated by the “transit” stopover in the United States on the way to Latin America by Taiwanese President Tsai Ying Wen next week, who, according to preliminary data, may meet with Speaker of the US House of Representatives Kevin McCarthy.
