WH National Security Adviser Sullivan: US welcomes stiff competition with China
|As the US and China kick-start their first talks since Joe Biden became American President, White House (WH) National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan crossed wires, via Reuters, while signaling the tough talks with Beijing.
In his latest comments, ahead of the said Alaska talks, Sullivan said, “US does not seek conflict, but will stand up for principles, friends.”
However, the WH official also doesn’t rule out health competition with China.
On a different stage, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken said, “US committed to strengthening rules-based order” while signaling discussion over Xinjiang, Hong Kong concerns, Taiwan & cyber attacks. The Biden administration member also mentioned that the US is committed to leading with diplomacy.
