Much will certainly change in the world of US foreign policy when Joe Biden enters the White House. There will be a more measured tone, and less reliance upon Twitter to announce US policy. Trump is brusque, as illustrated by the way he shoved aside Montenegro’s Prime Minister Dusko Markovic at the 2017 NATO meeting; Biden might not push and shove his way to the front of the group, but his silvery smile will camouflage as ruthless a set of aims. On foreign policy, Biden will appear to be different from Trump, but the broad outlines of their policy will be identical.
This year’s U.S. presidential election were especially dramatic. By election day on November 3, the early votes cast nationwide had reached a record-setting 99 million, around 78 percent of the total turnout from the 2016 election. Buoyed by voters’ enthusiasm amid the pandemic, Democratic nominee Joe Biden won the presidency after a vote count filled with twists and turns. Biden emerged with a substantial lead in both popular and electoral votes over President Donald Trump.
After Joe Biden won the US election, some Chinese experts said there might be a slight release of tension in China-US relations. In the 2020 US-China Dialogue Session 2 jointly organized by the Chongyang Institute for Financial Studies at Renmin University of China (RDCY), experts shared their view on the decoupling that has been seen in recent years between China and the US, and what both sides can do to prevent the situation from deteriorating.
Joe Biden published an article "Why America Must Lead Again" in a Foreign Affairs magazine earlier this year. In fact, what matters to the world is not who leads it, but whether or not the global governance, which is now in a state of shock, can be appropriately restored.
The Donald Trump administration seems obsessed with decoupling the United States from China. The tariffs it imposed on Chinese goods in 2018 and 2019 were initial attempts to that effect, which intensified both in rhetoric and action amid COVID-19.
The Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP), which includes 10 ASEAN members as well as China, Japan, South Korea, Australia and New Zealand, is set to be signed at the ASEAN Summit on Sunday. As the COVID-19 pandemic continues to rage on worldwide and many economies are taking a serious hit, the signing of the agreement will greatly promote regional economic integration, stabilize the supply and industrial chains, and increase countries' confidence in economic growth recovery.
Wang Wen, professor and executive dean of the Chongyang Institute for Financial Studies at the Renmin University of China, said though there are no palpable signs indicating an improvement in China-US ties, there are some expectations of that. The think tank has had "quite some" communication with some China policy advisers in the Biden transition team.
In June, Joe Biden, who will be the U.S. president in January 2021, sent out a tweet that described Venezuela’s President Nicolás Maduro—and others—as “thugs and dictators.” Maduro won two elections to hold his post—in 2013 and 2018. In 2018, Maduro won 67.8 percent of the vote, losing a third of the votes to Henri Falcón and Javier Bertucci, two figures of the opposition.
Editor’s note: and Tron Compared with general, what new opportunities and challenges will Biden bring to China? How should China adjust its US strategy? What should I pay attention to when dealing with other international affairs? With these questions in mind, Liu Ying, director of the Cooperative Research Department and Researcher of the Chongyang Institute of Finance of Renmin University of China, accepted an interview with Fengxiang.com. This article is transferred from Phoenix.com on November 9.
In mid-January 2020, 800 people gathered at Mexico’s Ministry of Economy to celebrate “China Day” with a seminar on Chinese-Mexican relations. Mexico’s Minister of Economy Graciela Márquez Colín, who has a PhD in economic history from Harvard University, said, “China and Mexico have to walk together, to build a stronger and more solid relationship.” In July 2020, the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement went into force. At the January event, Márquez Colín said that despite this agreement, Mexico must “redouble its efforts” to draw investment from other places, such as China.
After a tension-filled and tumultuous 2020 US presidential election, Americans have chosen Joe Biden to become the 46th president of the US. Where is the China-US relationship headed in the years to come? What will be the possibility of an outbreak of a new cold war between Beijing and Washington during Biden's presidency? Chongyang Institute for Financial Studies at Renmin University of China (RDCY) jointly held a Webinar with the No Cold War campaign and Tricontinental Institute for Social Research themed "the Future of China-US relations" and discussed these issues on Saturday.
The ongoing 3rd China International Import Exposition (CIIE) in Shanghai has witnessed good interests and an actual rise in the Renminbi settlement for foreign goods and services deals at the mega event.
The opening of the third China International Import Expo on Thursday heralded what may well be the "light at the end of the tunnel" for a world which is still largely shut down by the coronavirus. As one of the first countries to get control over the spread of the virus, China was the first to seriously restart its economy. Having served over the last few decades as the real engine of world economic growth, it is now declaring to the world that it is definitely open for business.
A new cold war with the US is not part of China's five-year plan. In the detailed proposals for the 14th Five-Year Plan and the long-range objectives through 2035, the US was not mentioned. In terms of foreign relations, the plan mentioned opening up to the outside world at a higher level, building a new type of international relations and creating a favorable external environment. These can lay the foundation for cooperation with Biden's "foreign policy for the middle class."
According to the usual practice, the election results will be announced on the second day of the U.S. election day, but three days have passed, and the results of this year’s election are still uncertain.
Under the raging epidemic, China has stood with the world in an open attitude and assumed the responsibility of a great power. As Chinese President Xi Jinping said in a keynote speech at the opening ceremony of the Third China International Import Expo on the evening of the 4th, China is willing to work with other countries to create opportunities in opening up, solve problems in cooperation, and work together to create a better life for mankind. tomorrow!
On August 20, 2018, El Salvador’s leftist president Salvador Sánchez Cerén announced on national television that El Salvador would break its ties with Taiwan and recognize the People’s Republic of China.
