US President Joe Biden does not plan to meet with Chinese President Xi Jinping at the G20 summit in India in September.
It is reported by NBC, citing sources in the administration of the American leader. It is noted that if Xi Jinping visits the summit, the heads of the two countries will greet each other, but no more – this will end their interaction. Relations between the leaders of the two powers, writes BB.LV escalated after Biden’s June announcement:
“The reason why Xi Jinping was very unhappy when I shot down that balloon with two cars of spy equipment was because he did not know about this balloon. And that’s what dictators really don’t like when they don’t know what’s going on.”
China’s Foreign Ministry called it “an open provocation” when the US president called Xi Jinping a “dictator”. The ministry stressed that these words “seriously violate the facts, diplomatic protocol and political dignity of China.” And according to the Kremlin, the statement by the head of the White House testifies to “unpredictability” and “mentor manifestations” in Washington’s foreign policy.
Chinese diplomacy considers “grossly absurd and irresponsible” the statement by US President Joe Biden, who called Chinese President Xi Jinping a “dictator” a day after US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken visited Beijing in an attempt to restore dialogue between the two countries. Mao Ning, a spokeswoman for the Chinese Foreign Ministry, told a press conference in Beijing, “This is an open political provocation.”
Recall that the G-20 summit in New Delhi is the eighteenth meeting of the heads of state of the Group of Twenty, which will be held on September 9-10, 2023 in India.
