Yesterday, during his speech in the US House of Representatives, US President Joe Biden referred to US-China relations. Biden said he told Chinese President Xi Jinping that Washington was seeking "competition, not conflict."
Biden also noted that US investment in its alliances, military and advanced technology means America is now in its most vital position in decades to compete with China and defend its interests.
"Make no mistake. As we made clear last week, if China threatens our sovereignty, we will act to defend our country. And we did it," said Biden, referring to the US's destruction of the Chinese reconnaissance balloon.
