Xi Comes Out Strong in Recent Call with Biden
Excerpt:
Apparently, President Joe Biden had a long talk with Chairman Xi in a call that his team itself would characterize as being about setting the parameters for the new relationship between the US and China Post-Trump and assuring that there were no untintended conflicts because China misinterpreted an action from the US.
This is a call of weakness and begging and, for China, was propaganda gold that was used richly in its media, characterizing the call as a demonstration of the strength of Xi and China contrasted with the weakness of Biden. In his fist talk to Xi in 7 months, he came to him with shield down and sword offered, begging China not to do anything harmful to the US because they might misinterpret American action.
