As Xi Jinping tries to ease tensions with America, a congressional committee risks exacerbating them

in November and agreed to resume high-level dialogue in less sensitive areas, including climate change. Their senior economic officials had “frank exchanges” in Zurich in January but agreed to enhance communication. And both sides seem keen to build on that momentum when Antony Blinken heads to China in early February on the first visit there by an American secretary of state since 2018.

In the late 1990s another surge of apprehension came with two China-related scandals—one involving campaign contributions, another the sale of American space technology—followed by President Bill Clinton’s decision in 2000 to grant China Permanent Normal Trade Relations status. The same year, Congress created the Congressional-Executive Commission on China and the US-China Economic and Security Review Commission , which both report annually to the legislature.

It also has an articulate and relatively youthful chairman in Mr Gallagher, a 38-year-old Republican representative and former Marine intelligence officer with an international-relations doctorate from Georgetown University. While President Biden talks of avoiding a new cold war with China, Mr Gallagher argues that it is already under way and that America must accelerate legislative and executive action to prevail.

It is still unclear which issue the new committee will tackle first. But Mr Gallagher says a top priority is to address what he says is a backlog of weapons and military equipment, worth $18bn-19bn, approved for sale to Taiwan but not yet delivered. He wants to hold the first hearing in time to shape the annual National Defence Authorisation Act. He has also called repeatedly for TikTok, the Chinese-owned social-media app, to be banned or sold to an American entity.

How many WW3's does Biden want?

deep state much?

Probably not good advice unless warranted

Why are the Republicans so antagonistic towards the authoritarians in China and Iran, while finding the Putin Russians so agreeable?

why seek peace when there is a war to be had Economist reporting the truth? It can't be?

You're right. We should just ignore their designs on global conquest and human rights abuses. You'd think British papers would be cognizant of the Neville Chamberlain problem. 'Peace in our time', is it?

So hilarious, TE the new Chinese troll. And you favor the invasion of Taiwan TE?
