BBG-Blinken To Visit China For Talks In Coming Weeks

US-CHINA

Bloomberg reporting that US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken is set to travel to Beijing in the coming weeks to hold talks with top officials and possibly Chinese President Xi Jinping 'according to people familiar with the matter'.

  • If Blinken's visit goes ahead it would be the seniormost visit by any Biden administration official to China since coming to office in 2021.
  • The Secretary of State's previous planned visit was suspended in early 2023 following the Chinese 'spy balloon' incident.
  • The potential visit comes amid varied signs on US-China relations. The refusal of Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin and his Chinese counterpart Li Shangfu to hold talks at the IISS Shangri-La Dialogue and the near-miss between Chinese and US vessels in the Taiwan strait in recent days highlights the heightened state of tensions.
  • However, the meeting of China's Vice-Foreign Minister and US Ass. Sec of State for East Asian Affairs on Monday, and the visit of CIA head William Burns to Beijing in May (as well as the nascent Blinken trip) could point in a positive direction.
