"Whatever stage of development it may reach, China will never pursue hegemony or expansion, and will never impose its will on others.
Meanwhile, in the South China Sea: https://apnews.com/article/south-china-sea-disputed-second-thomas-shoal-f702d9b9b84f9019083fb4d530fdf970
Doesnt china currently have like 9 land disputes that the UN deems illegal.
No, no, no, those regions were always a part of China so this is not an “expansion”.
I feel like China in those relationships has a better grasp on the word
Ready to be a partner means it is not now,
Ready to be friends also means that.This is the best summary I could come up with:
The U.S. executives dined with Xi on the margins of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) forum following a day of talks between the Chinese leader and U.S. President Joe Biden, aimed at steadying relations between the world’s two largest economies.
Executives from U.S. corporate giants such as Apple’s (AAPL.O) Tim Cook, BlackRock’s (BLK.N) Laurence Fink, Broadcom’s (AVGO.O) Hock Tan, Bridgewater Associates’ Ray Dalio and Pfizer’s (PFE.N) Albert Bourla were at the dinner tables.
Xi also met Tesla (TSLA.O) CEO Elon Musk, telling him that he supports the company’s development in China, according to a statement from the auto maker’s Weibo Account on Thursday.
U.S. Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo and other senior U.S. officials also attended the event, which generated controversy due to reported high ticket costs for companies seeking to brush shoulders with Xi.
Mike Gallagher, the Republican chairman of the U.S. House of Representatives’ select committee on China, had called it “unconscionable” that U.S. companies would pay thousands of dollars to join a dinner with a government the United States says is committing genocide against Muslim Uyghurs.
China has grown more suspicious of engagement with Western companies, in line with Xi’s emphasis on self-reliance and national security, and this year it has cracked down on some U.S. consultancy and due-diligence firms, further damaging investor confidence.
