White House spokesman Jen Psaki was asked about Xi Bai’s response at a regular press conference. This conversation reflects the facts. Biden clearly realizes that the challenge is to compete with China. In order to achieve the best position, measures must be taken at home to ensure that labor is more competitive, protect American technology, and strengthen cooperation with partners and allies.
Psaki pointed out that this is a manifestation of the strategy in the past few weeks. The strategy has been carried out in an orderly manner to strengthen its own economy and labor force, but “we are not in a hurry.” The Biden administration has only been in office for three weeks and the team is dealing with US-China relations. Take a strategic approach.
