Blinken: China Acting ‘More Aggressively Abroad’

Secretary of State Antony Blinken said in an interview on CBS News’ “60 Minutes” that aired on Sunday that the Chinese communist regime had recently acted “more aggressively abroad” and was behaving “increasingly in adversarial ways.”


He said it sounded like the actions “of someone who’s trying to compete unfairly and increasingly in adversarial ways. But we’re much more effective and stronger when we’re bringing like-minded and similarly aggrieved countries together to say to Beijing: ‘This can’t stand and it won’t stand.'”


On Friday, President Joe Biden’s administration said China had fallen short on its commitments to protect American intellectual property in the “Phase 1” U.S.-China trade deal signed last year.


Blinken arrived in London on Sunday for a G7 foreign ministers meeting where China is one of the issues on the agenda.
