VOA Reports: Blinken in Beijing for US-China Talks | VOA News #shorts

VOA's Nike Ching reports from Beijing, China, June 19, 2023, as U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken concludes his visit to the country.

U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken said Monday the United States and China have an obligation to manage their relationship responsibly, and that he told Chinese leaders during meetings in Beijing that direct engagement is the best way to ensure disagreements do not turn into conflict.

Speaking to reporters in Beijing, Blinken said he had candid and substantive discussions Monday with Chinese President Xi Jinping and top Chinese diplomat Wang Yi.

“I would expect additional visits by senior U.S. officials to China over the coming weeks,” said Blinken during a press conference in Beijing. He added Washington welcomes further visits by Chinese officials to the U.S.

For his part, Xi said he was satisfied with the talks.

Blinken said he raised U.S. concerns about provocative Chinese actions in the Taiwan Strait. Blinken said he reiterated that the United States does not support Taiwan independence and that it continues to expect the peaceful resolution of cross-Strait differences.

For decades, the U.S. has been clear that its decision to establish diplomatic relations with the Chinacin 1979 rested on the expectation that “the future of Taiwan will be determined by peaceful means,” as stipulated in the Taiwan Relations Act.
