Blinken in China: The top talking points

For more: Chinese President Xi Jinping met with U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken in Beijing on Friday. President Xi said bilateral relations have weathered storms since ties were established 45 years ago. He said China and the U.S. should be partners rather than rivals, and they should help each other succeed rather than hurt each other. He expressed hope that the two countries will seek common ground and reserve differences rather than engage in vicious competition. Honor words with actions, rather than say one thing but do the opposite, he said. This is Blinken's second official visit to China in less than a year and comes hours after the U.S. Senate passed a bill to order short-video app TikTok to be divested from its Chinese parent company, ByteDance.
