RELATEDPresident Joe Biden meets with Chinese President Xi amid tension
President Joe Biden said after his meeting Monday with Chinese President Xi Jinping that he is confident China is not preparing to attack Taiwan. "I do not think there's any imminent attempt on the part of China to invade Taiwan. And I made it clear that our policy in Taiwan has not changed at all," Biden said at a news conference in Bali.
China has been engaging in what the United States earlier described as "provocative" behavior in the Taiwan Strait after it conducted military drills in August on the heels of a visit to the island by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. But later in the day, Biden denied a conflict was brewing. "I made it clear that we want to see cross-Strait issues peacefully resolved," Biden said. "I am convinced he understood exactly what I was saying."
After a three-hour meeting with the Chinese leader, Biden said the midterm elections sent a strong message around the globe "that the United States is ready to play." Biden sought to reassure skeptics that the U.S. and China can work together. "The world expects, I believe, China and the United States to play key roles in addressing global challenges from climate change to food insecurity and for us to be able to work together," Biden told Xi before their meeting. "The United States stands ready to do just that – work with you – if that's what you desire.”
