President Joe Biden: America is in the best shape to compete with China
(Baonghean.vn) - The United States has reversed its decline in global influence and is in the best shape in decades to win against China or any other power, President Joe Biden said in a message to Congress.
He called on the American people to unite to win the competition with China and show that the US is moving towards competition, not conflict.
"Before I became president, there was talk about the People's Republic of China increasing its power in the world, and the United States losing that. That's not the case anymore," Biden said. "We are now in the strongest position in decades to compete with China or any other power in the world," he added.

Biden declared his readiness to cooperate with China in a way that would advance US interests and benefit the world. “I made it clear to President Xi that we seek competition, not conflict,” he said. “But make no mistake. As we made clear last week, if China threatens our sovereignty, we will act to defend our country. And we have done so,” the US President warned, referring to the Chinese balloon incident./.
