China Gives Biden the Middle Finger, Won’t Even Return Joe’s Calls After Spy Balloon Humiliation
Despite former President Donald Trump facing dubious criminal charges in New York, current President Joe Biden continues to face humiliation at the hands of Communist China in the international arena. According to Politico, Beijing has been “ghosting” Biden since the spy balloon incident in February, and they have been pressing hard against attempts to set up a call between Biden and Xi Jinping. The Chinese have been giving Secretary of State Antony Blinken the “cold shoulder” as he tries to schedule a visit to Beijing, characterizing the formerly two-way Sino-American relationship. We can safely say the Middle Kingdom is giving an increasingly desperate Biden the middle finger.
Politico further concedes that Biden’s officials have been unsuccessful in establishing regular and substantive communication with China since he took office, and they crave higher-level contacts, particularly with Xi Jinping, which is a humiliating position for the supposed world’s sole superpower.
However, the Chinese have openly scorned American overtures, and are not shy about expressing it. Chinese foreign ministry spokesman Wang Wenbin told reporters last month that “communication should not be carried out for the sake of communication,” and the “U.S. side should show sincerity” and “work with China to take concrete actions to help bring China-U.S. relations back to the right track.”
France Looks East
Emmanuel Macron, the globalist President of France, joined a delegation to Beijing, including the European Union’s technocrat-in-chief, Ursula von der Leyen, and dozens of corporate executives on Wednesday. Macron said at the French embassy that he does not believe in the scenario where there is an inescapable spiral of mounting tensions between the West and China.
Macron’s attitude is, in part, driven by economic concerns. He expects several major deals between French and Chinese companies to be announced during his time in Beijing. French officials have already said that Airbus may be able to secure more Chinese business on top of a previous order for 300 aircraft in 2019. This could be seen as opportunistic as it appears as growing distrust of China in the United States. The ostentatious deal-signing would be essentially a vote of confidence in the Chinese economy and a message that France is not on board with the U.S. approach.
The French do not seem to fear sending these negative signals to the White House under Biden. In recent days, Chinese and French companies have brokered a first-of-its-kind deal involving tens of thousands of tons of Arab gas, which will be bought and sold in Chinese yuan, dealing a heavy blow to the American-led petrodollar system of trade.
Donald Trump, while speaking out against the ‘lawfare’ campaign against him at his Mar-a-Lago estate on Tuesday, addressed America’s diminished geopolitical position under Biden, observing that “Russia has joined with China [and] Saudi Arabia has joined with Iran. China, Russia, Iran, and North Korea have formed together as a menacing and destructive coalition.” He lamented the “crashing” dollar would soon no longer be the world’s standard, and this would be America’s greatest defeat in 200 years.
“There will be no defeat like that. That will take us away from being even a great power,” he said.
