Biden's G7 Alliance on China to Fail: Times

Any attempt by U.S. President Joe Biden to align G7 countries against China would not succeed as the alliance lacks solid common ground and the member states were not likely to change their positions on economic and currency cooperation with China, the Global Times reported citing Chen Fengying, a research fellow at the China Institutes of Contemporary International Relations. The state tabloid reported the comments ahead of a G7 virtual meeting on Friday. China has voiced opposition to group politics based on ideological divides, and advocated that global affairs should be collectively managed by different nations, the newspaper said citing the Chinese foreign ministry.
