US President Biden calls Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping “a dictator”
|“US President Joe Biden on Tuesday called Chinese President Xi Jinping a dictator, adding that Xi was very embarrassed when a Chinese balloon was blown off course over the US recently,” said Reuters early Wednesday in Asia.
The news also shared the details of Biden’s remarks at a fundraiser in California by stating them to be a day after Secretary of State Antony Blinken met Xi on a trip to China. It’s worth noting that Blinken’s latest visit to Beijing was aimed at easing tensions between the two countries.
“China’s President Xi is in a position where he desires a resumption of relations with the United States,” adds US President Biden per Reuters.
