Biden and Xi Talk on phone to calm Diplomatic Tension between the Two Nations
After seven months on Thursday, US President Biden and Chinese President Xi Jinping had a telephone conversation to calm the diplomatic stress between the two nations. US President Biden initiated the call with Prime Minister Xi; this is the second call since Biden took office.
The two countries have been confronting issues such as Beijing’s handling of the Covid-19 pandemic, cyber security violations arising from China, and what the White House has marked as unfair trade practices by the government of China. However, Biden’s aim during the 90-minute call was to zero in less on these issues, rather than he focused on talking about the way ahead to better the US-China relationship after it got off to a pretty rough beginning.
