From the first day of U.S. President Joe Biden’s inauguration, the ‘mouths’ of the US and China had a fierce nervous war.
The gun was opened by China. The Office of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of China announced that 28 Trump administration officials, including former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, would be banned from entering China on the 21st, at 1 am (Chinese local time), when President Biden declared his inauguration. As soon as the’strings’ of the former administration’s high-ranking officials did not fall, they began sanctioning retaliation.
Biden’s administration, which said, “Trump’s hard line of public relations was right,” launched a counterattack. “The two parties will blame these unproductive and negative behaviors,” said Horn National Security Council spokesman. “President Biden looks forward to working with the leadership of both parties to help the United States outperform China,” said Reuters. Reported.
The Chinese message congratulating the launch of the Biden administration that followed also contained’bones’. Spokesman Hwa Chun-ying said at a regular briefing that afternoon, “President Biden has emphasized the word’solidarity’ several times in his inaugural speech,” and said, “This is what is necessary for US-China relations right now.” He then criticized the former Trump administration, saying, “Over the past four years, a small number of anti-Chinese politicians in the United States have incited resentment and division through many lies because of personal interests.”

– “The democracy that President Biden said in his inaugural speech is to admit the difference and make sure that disagreement does not become a division.” This means that the principle of diversity should be applied not only to Korea but also to US-China relations.
However, even in such a nervous war, both sides also expressed expectations for change.
Hwa Chun-ying said, “The Trump administration, especially Pompeo, has buried too many landmines in the US-China relations over the past few years, so it should be ruled out. I said. He emphasized that “everything is possible if you make up your mind,” he said. “If the two countries work together, a good angel in the US-China relationship can fight against evil powers and win.”
President Biden also mentioned his past relationship with President Xi Jinping, hinting at a shift in policy toward China. Immediately after the inauguration ceremony on the 20th (local time), President Biden said at an untact oath ceremony of over 1,000 appointed persons, “At a private dinner with President Xi Jinping very long ago on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, he asked me to define the United States in one word. I replied that it was’possible.’” The Hong Kong South China Morning Post (SCMP) reported from Washington on the 21st. The SCMP interpreted it as “a sign that the Biden administration’s policy toward China may change.”
