Tuesday, 16 November 2021 (YJC)_ US National Security Adviser claimed that the United States will use all its strengths to compete with China and stand up for its values together.
The United States will use all its strengths to compete with China and stand up for its values together with American allies and partners, National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan said on Tuesday.
"President Biden has made clear that together with our allies and partners and those that share our democratic values that we are going to work for a vision, not against China but for an affirmative vision of an international system that remains free, open and fair. We will compete with the full range of our strengths and we're going to stand up for our values," Sullivan said during a discussion hosted by Brookings Institution.
Sullivan also said that US President Joe Biden during the summit with Chinese President Xi Jinping raised the need for a series of strategic stability conversations.
"President Biden did raise with President Xi the need for a strategic stability set of conversations," Sullivan said.
This comes after Biden and Xi held their first face-to-face, although virtual, meeting since POTUS assumed office in January. The talks lasted more than three hours. The two presidents agreed that relations between Washington and Beijing are critical not only for them but for the entire world. As Biden and Xi touched upon the most pressing issues of bilateral and international agenda, POTUS stressed that the US is not seeking a new cold war, and Xi said he hopes that the US would demonstrate it with concrete actions.
