According to Epoch Times, the U.S. president who is visiting Europe said at a press conference on Tuesday that he is not worried about armed conflict between the United States and China, nor does he believe it is necessary.
He said: “You ask me if I am worried about an armed conflict or accidental conflict with China (the CCP), no, I am not worried.”
He said that he had conveyed this message in his recent phone call with Xi Jinping, that is: “(between the United States and China) is a competition, and there is no need to become a conflict.” And at the video conference to be held at the end of this year , He will reiterate this position again.
US officials have confirmed that Washington and Beijing will hold a video conference between Biden and Xi Jinping at the end of this year, but the exact time has not been announced.
Biden said: “There is no reason for the conflict, but I also told him that I am not afraid to announce this-I told him that we expect him to act according to the rules.”
Biden also said: “The United States will not change our attitude towards certain issues, such as international airspace and international territorial waters.”
He went on to say: “I don’t think there will be conflict, and I don’t think there is a need for conflict. My father once said that he said: What is worse than intentional conflict is unintentional conflict.”
Biden went on to say that he will use the video conference at the end of this year to prevent conflicts between the United States and China.
In an interview with CNN on October 21, Biden mentioned the CCP’s testing of supersonic missiles. At that time, he said: “Beijing knows that we are the most powerful military country in history.”
He also said: “I don’t want a cold war, I just want China (the CCP) to know that we will not back down, and we will not change any of our views.”
Mainland China is currently in the midst of an energy crisis. This crisis has spread to more than half of China’s provinces and may curb the development of China’s manufacturing industry and affect the lives of millions of Chinese people this winter. Due to the lack of electricity, China recently began power rationing. In response, China ordered an increase in coal production.
Lin XiangYi, an economics professor at National Taiwan University, believes that the CCP will not be able to solve its energy problem in the short term.
He said: “Any attempt to solve this domestic environmental problem in the short term will be huge and time-consuming.”
Xi Jinping did not participate in this year’s UN Climate Change Conference, but he sent a letter to the conference urging developed countries to provide more support for developing countries to reduce carbon emissions.
