Critics say the framework has gaping shortcomings. It doesn’t offer incentives to prospective partners by lowering tariffs or provide signatories with greater access to U.S. markets. Those limitations may not make the U.S. framework an attractive alternative to the Trans-Pacific Partnership, which still moved forward after the U.S. bailed out. China, the largest trading partner for many in the region, is also seeking to join TPP.
Kishida hosted a formal state welcome for Biden at Akasaka Palace, including a white-clad military honor guard and band in the front plaza. Reviewing the assembled troops, Biden placed his hand over his heart as he passed the American flag and bowed slightly as he passed the Japanese standard. The new pact comes at a moment when the administration believes it has the edge in its competition with Beijing. Bloomberg Economics published a report last week projecting U.S. GDP growth at about 2.8% in 2022 compared to 2% for China, which has been trying to contain the coronavirus through strict lockdowns while also dealing with a property bust. The slowdown has undermined assumptions that China would automatically supplant the U.S. as the world’s leading economy.
The launch of the Indo-Pacific Economic Framework, also known as IPEF, has been billed by the White House as one of the bigger moments of Biden’s Asia trip and of his ongoing effort to bolster ties with Pacific allies. Through it all, administration officials have kept a close eye on China’s growing economic and military might in the region.
Sullivan confirmed on Sunday that Taiwan — which had sought membership in the IPEF framework— isn’t among the governments that will be included. Participation of the self-ruled island of Taiwan, which China claims as its own, would have irked Beijing.
Peligroso la inversión de empresarios en China, país sin libertad democrática y con fines bélicos nucleares, Latinoamérica es la solución
Until the WH told the World.. no we won't!? Just that ~70% of the World's most advanced chips are made by TSMC in Taiwan, which China isn't even ALLOWED to own, yet Biden leaves Taiwan OUT of the new Pacific-US Pact !?🤦♂️!? (Wonder Why?)
So Biden wants to go fight a two-front war in 2022... Reminds me of someone back in the 30's and 40's
台灣 加油！
Bro needs to help our pockets first and lower these fucking gas prices. He want to help everyone out expect our own people smh. Steady spending all of our tax money on bs .
Great idea Joe, let's get in a fight with China over this..
China is playing with fire. US/QUAD is speaking up against China starting one in Taiwan else China will suffer severe consequences! Down with the CCP n emperor Xi.
Make it perfectly clear to China the exact consequences!
Looks like there will be another draft 🤡
‘Participation in the IPEF of the self-ruled island of Taiwan, which China claims as its own, would have irked Beijing.’ Is the US learning its lessons? If this policy was applied to NATO expansion the conflict in Ukraine might have been avoided.
'They got money for wars, but can't feed the poor' - Tupac
this is extremely dangerous rhetoric
. China is using Money & Muscle power for Expansionism & Has to be Countered.
He's even more senile than I thought if he thinks Americans want a war with China.
If the US is going to intervene, they better be ready to leave in boxes.
Dems are itching for a war to hide the catastrophe they have created for Americans.
Well if it wasn't Taiwan, it would be some other country because some dictators just can't get enough. So people should grasp that we're near the end of the age and get right with the Creator and stop trying to deny that we have a Creator.
I don't think that Xi Jinping, the President of China, and Putin are going to become Holy men, even though he goes to a Russian Orthodox church and makes the sign of the cross. We all have to have better eyes to see.
Good. He said the quiet part out loud. CCP: 😭 Cope.
Hope he( POTUS ) stand with his words, because China must do that. COVID is not reason for Current lockdown in China. China is doing it to disrupt Global supply chain, stock supplies for military and disturbing countries internally through high inflation to divert attention...
Biden really needs to be careful. The west really wouldn't want china joining hands with russia at this moment. Nato needs to be tactful with turkey. Right now luckily these countries don't like each other. Usa shouldn't become the common denominator. Iran as well
If the Biden plan is to turn the USA into a smoldering ashtray, he's doing a great job.
You can’t invade yourself
JoeBiden has not finished with Ukraine, he wants to add Taiwan to the list of countries he pushed into violence. Biden obviously has a thing with bloodshed and destruction of countries.
Everything the left accused Trump of they are doing.
Intelligent individuals would surely agree a more peaceful solution.
We saw that in Ukraine
just，come on！🤗
Can anyone tell me what was Indian stand?
中国反分裂国家法随时准备着。
That ought to bring Russia and China a little more closer.
Let's see if World War III will be started by Biden and if the U.S. can still be a winner in this war as it was in World War II? Everyone is equal in the face of nuclear war
How many states recognises Taiwan statehood? not even the US recognises Taiwan at the UN. Joe is mad.The story of Taiwan is like the US Civil War. What if other states supported Confederate States military wise?
The Dems are the party of war. Nice.
They owe china a lot of money. War is a good excuse not to pay.
POTUS help baloch
Think the upper age limit to lead a nation should be 55. Biden has nothing to lose from the end of the world other than maybe 5 years of incontinence and progressively softer and blander foods
As long as we pay for via inflation and not new additional taxation. Inflation as a way to pay for government is more equitable.
At least World War III is much better than tweets that hurt peoples feelings
Ball of steel
So I guess WW3 is a go then...YOUR MOVE CHINA
No worries even india will help, we have lot pending dues with chinese
Poda edavadu vayila varudu This is how you provoked Zelensky & Ukraine is in shambles now Now provoking Taiwan... I think you will destroy the world..is that your motto when you took over as POTUS..
Does he even know what he is saying?
Quote and agreed 💯 'Well done POTUS ! We need to keep the world free and at peace in order to have a stable, prosperous world order in this 21st century'
“I guess China should start talking about its one US policy, including China-Puerto Rico relationship act and China-Hawaii act; China and all indigenous tribes 108 joint communiques to promote indigenous people independence; China-Mexico act to free Texas and California”
War with? Chinese & Russian population can survive with inflation, food shortages economical disruptions.But we in United States will have civil war, if inflation military will lose financial support in Congress.This means Taiwan is lost cause 2 years maxi
Heard that before
News reporters shouldn't ask hypothetical question, the what if. President should refuse to respond to such unprofessional and useless questions.
Biden is unhinged. Why are we trying to start WW3? Leave it alone, and focus on the problems that are affecting Americans. People can't afford groceries, gas, rent, or health care. Focus on the country you are president of.
I'm glad-the Chinese govt has no right to attack Taiwan
Tiwain is a member of Major non-NATO ally (MNNA). From my understanding, the President can designate a nation as an MNNA thirty days after notifying Congress. So, why have we not designated ukraine? We don’t want to upset Putin, but China is fair game? POTUS stop instigating!
I think, Biden took some lessons from Jimmy Carter and he is now changing his own policies on China to counter him, i think now biden have a good and strong policy , we should do everything to protect the tiwan at any cost🙏✌️
If China wants to become a superpower then they can’t invade sovereign nations and absorb them. The rules are being set. I welcome the clarity.
If the US goes to war with China, I'm rooting for China.
Ein ganz wichtiges Signal der USA. Japan hat eine ähnliche Aussage gemacht. Die Sicherheit Taiwans muss garantiert sein. Es wäre wichtig, dass auch die EU hier klar Stellung bezieht. Imperialismus darf keine Option mehr sein im 21. Jhdt., weder von Russland noch von China.
Great, everyone die together. China will announce that the United States dares to participate in the recovery of Taiwan, and China's nuclear bomb will directly attack the United States! China's nuclear bomb is enough to destroy the United States!
Lol, another ukraine in the making
I know people were afraid of Trump being allowed near the nuke button when he got into office, but is it me or is Biden being a lot less diplomatic when it comes to maintaining peaceful relations with leading nuclear powers than Trump ever was?
China should invade Taiwan. US is a paper tiger
Biden says a lot of things that are untrue. Taiwan shouldn't bank on the US while Biden is 'president'.
？？
用中国之前的一句流行语评价就是：信你个鬼，你个糟老头子坏得很
The good news is he's running out of things to make worse
Choose between 2 Evil.. USA or China ?
I will not be fighting in the pacific theatre (for the US)
United states trying to give hope to taiwan and will end up them with loss when war happens,never trust them.
💯
Lets go another world war
Democrats became the party of warmongers.
Oh dear God...Joey youre a hot mess.
China it’s China, he not even recognize it as a country, the day that the United Nations recognize it, will be the day we all be living in Mars.
I hate to say it: a barking dog never bites...
Taiwan is a part of China. And there has only one China. If you want a war then none of Chinese will fear to defend our country with our life. The only thing we want is peace. We want to develop with other country and we want make world become better.
Why is he announcing this now? Sometimes things are best not said.
someone tell this bag of bones that we can't afford to fund wars all over the world, he sends money to ukraine constantly, while americans are struggling and now has promised taiwan the same deal
Conservative, but man. Give Biden credit here. Badass moment by this administration.
The old man only wanted to sell arms. He was like a fishmonger selling fish in a vegetable market
Leave Taiwan alone, and there will be no war. Don’t say anything, and don’t do anything, stop provoking China. War does not help any of us!
Did he like, clear this major strategic shift with his handlers?
Or in short - come on, Kishi buy some more rusty rockets & murican military stuff, you need it when we`re ready to plant the next proxy war on you and your neighbor.
...' Would do this, would do that' Says the warmonger thinking about weapons sales...
Book a mental check up for the guy
👍🏿
China wasn’t going to, but should now. Just to be defiant to the fascist western imperialist!
Why this needless provocation?
Is this the same military intervention as you did in Ukraine or the same defense as you did in Afghanistan?
Does peace and diplomacy ever occur to these leaders? Most people want peace, we have psychopaths, salivating for a war running the western world, NATO badly needs to justify its existence, it should have been disbanded decades ago, They are life sucking warmongers
After fighting to the last Ukranian the US will fight to the last Taiwanese.
Military Industrial Complex entering the chat.
They’re trying to get us into a world war, to avoid a civil war.
还有这种好事？
This warmonger is going to destroy so many lives.
Reminds me of a hitherto feared school boy bully who gets found out!
And just like that media will lose focus on Ukraine war and concentrate on next big war..talk about being used and dumped 😂
but what does Taiwan want!
What the actual fuck!!! Dude, cool it down. This is huge. I hope someone has thought this through because this is gonna be very consequential 🤦🏻🤦🏻🤦🏻 shit!
Throwing the shit Biden dumps in his pants daily at China isn’t going to have much effect.
