CHINA’S foreign minister accused the United States today of devising tactics to suppress China’s rise and slammed the Biden administration for adding more Chinese companies to its sanctions lists.
Wang Yi, speaking to the media during the annual meeting of China’s National People’s Congress, said China’s relations with the US have improved since Presidents Xi Jinping and Joe Biden met in November, but Washington has not fulfilled its promises.
Mr Wang said: “If the US always says one thing and does another, where is its credibility as a major power? If the US gets nervous and anxious when it hears the word ‘China,’ where is its confidence as a major power?”
