Link: https://english.alahednews.com.lb/76034/388
Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi told his American counterpart Antony Blinken on Friday that China and the US face a choice between stability and a “downward spiral”. | This comes as the American diplomat kicked off a day of meetings with top Chinese officials. ● Blinken’s trip to China – his second in the space of a year – comes as the two global powers seek to expand communication and stabilize rocky ties, while also navigating a host of thorny issues from China’s support for Russia to its ctivities in the South China Sea and toward Taiwan.
💬 “Should China and the United States keep to the right direction of moving forward with stability or return to a downward spiral? This is a major question before our two countries, and tests our sincerity and ability,” Wang told Blinken during a meeting at the Diaoyutai State Guesthouse, after stating that the US-China ties were “beginning to stabilize.” ● “Should our two sides lead international cooperation against global issues and achieve win-win for all? Or engage in rivalry and confrontation – or even slide into conflict, which would be a lose-lose for all?” he said, speaking through an interpreter.
