US Secretary of State Pompeio and Yang Ji-chi, who oversees China's diplomacy, met in Hawaii. As the conflict between the two countries intensifies with the spread of the new coronavirus and other factors, the Trump administration is increasing pressure on China, and it is unclear whether it can show the path to improved relations.
US Secretary of State Pompeio and China's Yang Ji Ji * Political Bureau members met in Hawaii on the 17th (18th Japan time). It has been since August last year that the top foreign diplomats in the United States and China have met in person.
Relations between the two countries have deteriorated more than ever after the Trump administration blamed China for its responsibility, following the spread of the new coronavirus. In addition, even as China introduces the "national security legislation" into Hong Kong, the Trump administration has sought to revise it in a joint statement by the foreign ministers of the G7 = seven major countries, and the conflict is becoming more intense.
At the meeting, it seems that they also exchanged views on the situation of the Korean Peninsula, which has become unstable due to the bombing of the joint liaison office with North Korea by North Korea.
It can be said that the U.S. side wants to give priority to the actual outcome of the talks without letting the reporters accompany this meeting, but the Trump administration will enact the "Uighur Human Rights Law" that China strongly opposes on the 17th. It's unclear if the pressure is on the road to improving relationships.
