<Anchor> For the



past four years, former President Trump has encountered so many conflicts with other countries in the international community.

Among them, in particular, we had a conflict with China, but we will connect a Beijing correspondent and see what the Chinese atmosphere is like.



Correspondent Song Wook, right after the inauguration ceremony, the Chinese government sanctioned the Trump administration's officials.



<Reporter>



Yes, 28 people who led the pressure on China, including former Secretary of State Pompeo and former National Security Advisor O'Brien, were subject to sanctions.



They and their families are prohibited from entering mainland China, Hong Kong and Macau.



Those who seriously violate China's sovereignty must face retaliation, but the Biden administration is also read as a warning not to step on the train.



On the other hand, the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs congratulated the inauguration and greeted them to work together to bring the bilateral relations back to normal.

would like to do that in China, but the pressure on China will continue in the Biden administration. There are many prospects like this.



<Reporter>



Yes, the Biden government's staffs are clearing the tone for a strong policy toward China.



The nominee of Secretary of State Blincoln said China was the biggest challenge and that the ``basic principles were right'' of Trump's public hardline, and the nominee of the Directorate of State Intelligence Haynes stipulated that China is ``an enemy'' in the field of information and trade.



It means that we will continue to contain China's rise.



<Anchor>



Then, as in the case of Trump, it means that tensions may continue for the time being. Is there anything that could change the relationship between the two countries?



<Reporter> The



key question is what message President Xi Jinping brings to President Biden.



In a recent letter to Starbucks Honorary Chairman Howard Schultz, Xi indirectly emphasized US-China economic cooperation, and there are reports that the Chinese government has set up a new trade negotiation team in preparation for the resumption of trade negotiations.



It is also worth paying attention to whether the US-related remarks will come out at the pre-video conference of the Davos Forum, attended by President Xi on the 25th.
