WASHINGTON (Archyde.com) – Correspondent Ryu Ji-bok = US President Joe Biden said on the 20th (local time) that he expects to have a dialogue with Chinese President Xi Jinping within ten days, Archyde.com reported.
Biden, who took office in January last year, has had four video or phone calls with Xi so far, but no face-to-face meetings yet. The last contact was last March.
President Biden did not explain the format of the “dialogue” with Xi on the same day.
It has been speculated that the issue of face-to-face talks between the two leaders may have been discussed during the Luxembourg meeting between White House National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan and Politburo Yang Jietz last month, and between US Secretary of State Tony Blincoln and Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi on the 9th.
President Biden, following former President Donald Trump, continues to take a strong stance once morest China, and relations with Xi are not smooth.
Biden also said House Speaker Nancy Pelosi was reportedly planning a visit to Taiwan, saying, “The military doesn’t think this is a good idea right now.”
The Financial Times (FT) reported on the 19th that Chairman Pelosi plans to visit Taiwan next month.
If Pelosi visits Taiwan, he will be the first incumbent Speaker of the House 25 years since former Republican Newt Gingrich in 1997. Pelosi is the third-largest power in the United States.
However, China, which regards Taiwan as its territory, resolutely opposes Pelosi’s visit to Taiwan as a serious violation of the ‘one China’ principle.
When asked whether to declare a national emergency to combat climate change, President Biden said he would make a decision soon.
Foreign media reports that President Biden is considering declaring a state of emergency that can divert the climate change budget to the president as it becomes difficult for Congress to process the $300 billion budget for climate change response, according to foreign media reports.
