Four conversations so far
Joe Biden and Xi Jinping have spoken four times since being elected 79-year-old Democrat, and their last meeting was on March 18. These talks show the desire to keep the channels of communication open, but so far they have not brought a slight easing to the very tense relations between the first two world powers.
In addition to trade, China and the United States are particularly divided over the fate of Taiwan. Washington and Beijing also differ radically in their response to the war in Ukraine. If the Americans have taken the lead in Western retaliation against Russia, the Chinese claim the opposite with their support for the Vladimir Putin regime. China, for example, has sharply increased its purchases of Russian oil. Competing with the Asian giant is the strategic priority announced by Joe Biden, who seeks to counter Beijing’s ambitions in Asia և Pacific և and the wider world.
