BRUSSELS: US President Joe Biden told fellow NATO leaders on Monday the defence of Europe, Turkey and Canada was a"sacred obligation" for the United States, a marked shift from his predecessor Donald Trump's threats to withdraw from the military alliance.

Allied leaders are concerned about Russia's recent military build-up near Ukraine, as well as its covert and cyber attacks to undermine Western states, although Moscow denies any wrongdoing. China is no longer seen as a benign trading partner. China's embassy in London said it was resolutely opposed to mentions of Xinjiang, Hong Kong and Taiwan, which it said distorted the facts and exposed the"sinister intentions of a few countries such as the United States"."China's reputation must not be slandered," the embassy said on Monday.

From Chinese investments in European ports and plans to set up military bases in Africa to joint military exercises with Russia, NATO is now agreed that Beijing's rise deserves a strong response, although envoys said that would be multi-faceted.
