Xi To Blinken: 'Very Good' Progress Made On US-China Ties

US-CHINA

Bloomberg reportingthat Chinese President Xi Jinping has said to US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken that 'very good' progress had been made on US-China relations during the course of the meetings over the last 48 hours between Blinken and senior Chinese officials. While Xi's warm words will be welcomed in Washington, D.C., it is the prospect of a broader increase in communication and diplomacy between the two sides that would be viewed as a more concrete indicator that military, political and economic tensions could begin to subside in the coming months.

  • Xi: “The two sides have also made progress and reached agreements on some specific issues. This is very good,”
  • The meeting is the most high-profile between any US and Chinese actors since US President Joe Biden came to office and the first visit of a US SoS to China in five years.
