HANOI: US President Joe Biden insisted Sunday he does not want to “contain” China, as the two powers face deepening divisions on trade, security and rights.

Biden said he had met Chinese Premier Li Qiang at the G20 summit in New Delhi – a meeting the White House had not announced – and discussed “stability”.

The president revealed the encounter in Hanoi, where earlier in the day he agreed a deal to deepen ties with Vietnam as Washington looks to bolster its network of allies around Asia and the Pacific in the face of Beijing’s rising influence.

Washington and Beijing are at loggerheads on a range of global issues, and Biden accused China of seeking to bend the international order to its will.

It is for China to explain Xi’s absence from G20 summit, US official says

“One of the things that is going on now is China is beginning to change some of the rules of the game, in terms of trade and other issues,” Biden told a news conference.

Washington has invested heavily in building alliances as part of its Indo-Pacific strategy, including the Quad security dialogue with India, Australia and Japan, and the AUKUS pact with Britain and Australia.

But he insisted the United States is not seeking to box China in, but rather to establish clear ground rules for relations.

“I don’t want to contain China. I just want to make sure we have a relationship with China that is on the up and up, squared away, everybody knows what it’s all about,” he said.

Chinese President Xi Jinping skipped the G20 as Beijing and Delhi tussle over territorial and other issues.

Because you cannot contain China. A lesson that was learnt just in the past few days. In spite of trying hard, and blocking access to technology, China managed to make its own 7nm chip. If it could do that, then China could pretty much do everything else.

China making it’s own 7nm chips for Cellphones, recently, in spite of it being restricted in the areas of technology, means, trying to contain China is a losing strategy. Nothing to gain. As well make up, cooperate and benefit.

In politics and particularly in foreign policy there is a lot of double game.

Cooperating with China was mutually beneficial. Look at the last three decades. Trying to contain China, is a losing game. Look at China’s breakthrough in managing to produce 7nm computer chips, in spite blocking the technology to create these chips.
