– “In US-China relations, China’s position is consistent and clear. There is no information to provide right now for the specific problem you asked.”
This is a response from a spokesman for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Zaorizen on the 28th. US President Joe Biden and Chinese President Xi Jinping (68) said this to a foreign reporter’s question about their monetary plans. It did not reveal what China’s inner feelings were by giving only a short answer, saying’there is no information’.
Calls are delayed from Obama and Trump
“Chinese authorities delete currency-related articles from the Internet”
– But in Greater China, there are other talks. The delay in normal calls between the US and China means that the Chinese authorities are feeling burdened. Hong Kong’s China Human Rights Information Center said on the 28th that “China is extremely sensitive to the currency of Biden and Xi Jinping being pushed to other countries.” “Currency-related articles are rapidly being deleted due to Internet censorship.”
After taking office, President Biden started with Canada (22nd), Mexico, UK (23rd) → France (24th) → Germany (25th) → North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), Russia (26th) → Japan (27th) I am doing diplomacy by phone in order of work). Vice President Kamala Harris spoke with the Secretary-General of the World Health Organization (WHO) on the 21st. Starting with Afghanistan and South Korea (22nd), security adviser Jake Sullivan is helping Biden’s summit diplomacy by talking to security advisors from Israel (24th) → India (27th) → European Union (28th).

– China is also setting up a crossfire. President Xi took the lead. Laos (21st) → Dominica-International Olympics (IOC) (25th) → Korea-Belarus (26th) → Bolivia (29th). Portugal (27th), Mexico, and Surinam (28th) were accompanied by congratulatory diplomacy. On the 29th, Vice President Wang Chi-san, who was recently exposed, also attended a videoconference with US-Chinese businessmen and former senior officials and helped out that “the common interest is greater than the contradictions of each other.” Yang Jietsu, the head of the Central Foreign Affairs Committee, is scheduled to attend a video conference on the 1st of the US-China Relations National Committee to contribute.
However, as the biden-Xi Jinping currency was delayed, it is pointed out that China’s calculation method, which attempted to reset the Trump administration’s Chinese policy, was wrong with the launch of the new government.

– Biden-Xi Jinping calls are later than their predecessors. In 2009, President Barack Obama spoke with President Hu Jintao on January 30, ten days after taking office. In April, a meeting was pledged at a financial conference of 20 major countries in London and discussed the North Korean nuclear issue. In 2013, during the transition of the regime between Hu Jintao and Xi Jinping, on the evening of the inauguration of President Xi Jinping on March 14, a call was made with President Obama. The call continued to the Sunnyland talks on June 7. The call with President Trump in 2017 was a bit late to February 10th. However, it was already the second call since his first call on November 14, 2016 when he was elected. The first meeting was held in Mararago in June.
Biden of the’Zijung-pa’ is Man Mandi (慢慢的, slow). On the 25th (local time), immediately after Xi’s Davos speech, White House spokesman Jen Saki mentioned “strategic patience” as Chinese policy. It was Biden’s euphemism that there was no need to rush to the call with President Xi.
There is an unwritten rule in Chinese diplomats that “there is nothing trivial in diplomacy.” Chinese Prime Minister Zhou Enlai said. This is the guideline for the speech at the inauguration ceremony of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in November 1949. There are observations that Chinese diplomacy, who was seeking perfection, is a stepped-up in Biden’s Manmandi tactics.
