China, US should have ‘objective’ understanding of strategic intention

China and the United States should have an objective understanding of each other’s strategic intention and take the correct view of competitive factors in future exchanges, China’s foreign ministry said on Monday.
Wang Wenbin, a ministry spokesperson, was speaking at a regular press briefing when asked about China’s top diplomat Wang Yi saying the road to a meeting between the countries’ leaders in San Francisco would not be smooth.
China’s foreign minister met U.S. President Joe Biden and his top aides in Washington in recent days, agreeing to work together toward the expected bilateral meeting on the sidelines of an Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation forum summit.
