Well articulated.
Today President Xi will attempt to give false hope of a more cooperative relationship with the US while continuing to fund Russia’s war against Ukraine, support Iran in the war against us, and continue cyber attacks on America. Presidents in the past have been naive when it comes to China. We have to learn from past mistakes with China and be clear eyed about their continued aggression against the US and our allies.
