The provocative proposal is part of U.S. President Joe Biden's escalating campaign to get fellow democratic leaders to present a more unified front to compete economically with China in the century ahead, according to two senior administration officials who briefed reporters on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the plans publicly.
China also loomed large over the meeting on the craggy coast of Cornwall. Biden's proposed critique of China's labor practices was to be raised as the allies unveil an infrastructure proposal dubbed "Build Back Better for the World," a name echoing the American president's campaign slogan. Weeks before Biden took office last year, the European Commission announced it had come to terms with Beijing on the Comprehensive Agreement on Investment, a deal meant to provide Europe and China greater access to each other's markets. The Biden administration had hoped to have consultations on the pact.
An estimated 1 million people or more -- most of them Uyghurs -- have been confined in reeducation camps in China's western Xinjiang region in recent years, according to researchers. Chinese authorities have been accused of imposing forced labor, systematic forced birth control, torture and separating children from incarcerated parents.
Brexit will also cast a shadow on the summit Saturday, as Johnson meets separately with European leaders including German Chancellor Angela Merkel and French President Emmanuel Macron amid tensions over Britain's implementation of U.K.-EU divorce terms.
Beijing rejects allegations that it is committing crimes. So what does China call what its doing, then? Brainwashing? Maybe? The Dragon and the Bear need to grow up and treat the world as equals, … ! What about climate change Computer hacking, ransomware
Make it the general will to put manufacturing back into the 🇨🇦🇺🇸 heartland. We have every natural resource on earth, and the manpower to extract it. Anything we can’t do here, we can buy from 🇯🇵 + 🇰🇷 + 🇪🇺. No more dealing with the CCP. Rip the bandaid off & get it done! cdnpoli
tough to do with FIPA giving China special rights in Canada - to seek restitution in private if the Government hinders their business ... cdnpoli
Justin is a great kneeler, but no moral standard, he kneels in front of world powers in turns, despite US and China have entire opposite values.
Who's the scruffy guy in the front?
This goes against Canada’s FIPA contract with China which Canadian politicians embraced with open arms.
Compete? End CCP totalitarian, please. We can't tolerate such as big volume of systematic genocidal activists group existing in the world after WW2's Nazi; CCP is killing and sterilizing Uyghur in East Turkistan area now!
How about TikTok and Xiaomi.....
Trade w/ CCP's China is never fair, they pay much but they need not only your product, the price is including buying freedom of ppl (like Uighur & HK), dignity, techniques (for counterfeit) & your support in their dictatorship. It's time to find a new trade partner.
How do you say, 'We will bury you!' in Cantonese and Mandarin?
He’s talking to you JustinTrudeau Start calling out China.
Instead of simply competing with that filthy regime in the developing world why don’t we also isolate them in ours? (And what about the Michaels ffs!?!)
Biden to urge G7 leaders to call out, compete with China…. Did you notice the way Biden looks at Turdeau through the corner of his eye? Yeah, he’s got Turdeau pegged alright.
A Ken doll has more balls then JT..he's just not there
Good luck convincing Trudeau!
Can't wait till they get to calling out Saudi Arabia and Israel.
Biden is actually doing what Trudeau has only been saying
Trudeau is far to chicken for that kind of talk.
You couldn’t find a picture of Biden alone? One might think that you deliberately included the PM to set off the anti-Trudeau group. 🙄 I don’t agree with everything he’s done, but the name-calling, ignorant-on-facts, drivel from them is tiresome and merely muddies the message.
IStandWithMax
but conservatives love china - send manufacturing there to prop up the bottom line - profit ... FIPA was penned by Harper and OToole ... OToole hired a Huawei executive - get tough on China, too funny OToole - too funny
The mere thought of doing so must be keeping Justin up at night!!!
I would criticize Trudeau liberal’s government but Bill C 10 says I should STFU instead ;))
It's okay, someone in an Echo Chamber said I'll be okay in the end, it's just the remaining hope of those words are Diluted with 16 months of a re spawning of 7.5 years ago. We need to figure out how to do this responsibility...or idk Fk I wish the beer store was open rn 🤣
