U.S. President Joe Biden said on Monday he thinks relations between the United States and China are on the “right trail” and suggested progress was made during a rare trip to Beijing by Secretary of State Antony Blinken.
“We’re on the right trail here,” Biden said of U.S.-China relations. Asked by reporters whether he felt progress had been made, he replied, “It’s been made.”
Biden also praised Blinken and said “he did a hell of a job.”
China and the United States agreed on Monday to stabilize their intense rivalry so it doesn’t veer into conflict but failed to produce any major breakthrough.
