Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin is unable to talk to Chinese military counterparts despite repeated attempts.
China owns Joe Biden and has zero respect for him.
In March Biden’s Secretary of State Antony Blinken got humiliated by China’s envoy on American soil.
“The United States does not have the qualification to say that it wants to speak to China from a position of strength,” Yang said right to Blinken’s face.
Now Biden’s “woke” Defense Secretary, who is more dedicated to diversity than actually winning wars, is chasing around China’s military leaders like a weak beggar.
Reuters reported:
U.S. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin has so far been unable to speak with China’s top general despite multiple attempts to set up talks, U.S. defense officials said on Friday.
Relations between China and the United States have grown increasingly tense, with the world’s two largest economies clashing over everything from Taiwan and China’s human rights record to its military activity in the South China Sea.
Despite the tensions and heated rhetoric, U.S. military officials have long sought to have open lines of communication with their Chinese counterparts to be able to mitigate potential flare-ups or deal with any accidents.
A second U.S. official said there was a debate in President Joe Biden’s administration about whether Austin should speak with vice chairman of China’s Central Military Commission, Xu Qiliang, or Chinese Defense Minister Wei Fenghe.
Xu is seen as having more power and influence with Chinese President Xi Jinping.
