With China emerging from 2020 in a position of strength, President Xi is scoring diplomatic wins that may frustrate efforts by President-elect Biden to line up allies as a check on China

in the world’s second-largest economy have given Mr. Xi a stronger hand in dealings with countries still struggling with the pandemic and its economic fallout.

While President-elect Joe Biden has signaled plans to rally multilateral efforts to check China on issues ranging from trade to human rights, Mr. Xi has sought to offset any U.S. pressure. Since Mr. Biden’s electoral victory in November, China has anchored a new 15-nation Asia-Pacific trade pact and struck an investment deal with the European Union—overriding concerns from the incoming Biden administration.

China nonetheless faces weighty challenges at home and abroad. Many nations are growing wary about the superpower’s aggressive foreign policy. Its investment pact with Europe has yet to be ratified. And it must overcome the pandemic’s long-term economic fallout and widening doubts about the efficacy of Chinese vaccines that officials have hoped can win global hearts and minds.

Beijing has shown no sign of backing down. In a reflection of its confidence, Mr. Xi’s administration has asserted control along his country’s periphery, launching mass arrests of opposition figures in Hong Kong this month, while flying high-frequency warplane sorties near the island democracy of Taiwan, which Beijing claims as its territory.

Guys, Joe said China is not a problem, right Joe? Joe?

They've been playing chess for years - we're still learning the strategy of checkers

President-elect and President Xi will become the best friends, because they are possible to meet 8 years.

Of course they are. This is what happens when you have a nation unwilling to delay gratification (US) who couldn’t lock down for six weeks to control the pandemic. China did.

Molto dipenderà dalla ripresa dei rapporti con L'Europa. A mio avviso gli U.S.A sono un grande paese...pieno di risorse e persone con tante idee e grande cuore. Gli U.S.A devono solo ritrovare un po' di serenità. Il resto viene da solo.

So, of course you are already soft-pedaling China. And giving cover for Biden? He hasn't even taken the oath yet and you are making excuses for him. That's not a very promising outlook.

Without Trump, China will overwhelm the US. Biden is being blackmailed by China.

LOL. President-elect Biden and his family have been bought and paid for by the CCP. Did you not read the excerpts from his son's laptop this past October or were you blinded by the social media censorship? Capitulation to Xi is the word of the day today and for the next 4 years.

US is consistantly waging wars to China, takes China as its enemy, but so importantly most the countries in the world they just see China as friends and business partner. the US's efforts to line up allies to conquer China wil inevitablly come to end with nothing remains...

Still engaging in motheaten Cold War mindset. Cold War is reason for US decline. See discussion by William Polk
