US Secretary of State Antony Blinken to travel to China in effort to ease tensions

US Secretary of State Antony Blinken to travel to China in effort to ease tensions

US Secretary of State Antony Blinken will travel to China on June 18, rescheduling a visit that was cancelled in February after a suspected surveillance balloon was detected by the US.
This will be Blinken's first trip to China since his predecessor Mike Pompeo visited in October 2018.

The visit is seen as an effort to ease tensions between the two countries, which have been at odds over issues such as Taiwan and China's increasingly assertive posture in the region.

Biden has looked to limited areas for cooperation with China, such as climate change, in contrast to the more fully adversarial position adopted by the previous administration.

Well this could be posted on any article here in PANAMA NEWS. I guess nothing ever happens in Panama because there are never any articles about it. Good world news coverage but maybe a name change is in order

Cross check this "News" with the info that the Chinese have executed him (or better one of his doublese) at the Airport where he landed uninvited.

Fake news? Possible but unlikely.
More likely that everything you are being told is fake but you're through absorbing "their" bullshit all your life so brainwashed that you think all others are liars, think about that.
