The Biden admin goes hard at Russia and China…

By

President Biden, a man who has been in government for a lot longer than most modern day President’s is making it known that the Donald Trump American policy is no more….

This is the start of the delicate foreign policy dance that all three will be doing going forward in the future…

China IS entangled with American’s economy….

That while trying hard to eclipse America on the economic and military playing fields….

Russia HAS been successful in having a American leader that wanted initially to desperately stay close to its leader for what reason one hopes we will find out sooner or later…

Biden is laying down a marked with his national Security people that America will try to point to things it is not happy with in those countries and will try to keep America as the leader in the fields of economic’s and military…

Biden’s first efforts with the Chinese where met with a surprising blunt public push back…

(CNN)President Joe Biden is suddenly waging a bitter two-front confrontation with America’s foe in the last Cold War — Moscow — and the US adversary in a possible next one — China.

Nasty personal insults are flying between the White House and the Kremlin even as staggeringly blunt rhetoric erupts in the administration’s first big talks with China called to lay down the law on Biden’s tough new policy toward the dominant Asian power.
A remarkable day of intercontinental squabbling confirmed that US relations with China have plunged to their lowest point since President Richard Nixon’s pioneering mission to “open” the then-isolated communist state in the 1970s. US-Russia ties are, meanwhile, at their most difficult point since the fall of the Soviet Union.
A simmering feud with Russia escalated when Biden blasted Vladimir Putin as a “killer” in an interview this week, promoting the stung Russian strongman and his aides to brand the new US commander-in-chief old and senile….

Given the brittle global situation, an attempt by a new American President to flex power in such an overt manner against two nuclear rivals might seem rash. But if anything, Biden is reacting to a strategic calculus that has shifted since he served as vice president in the Obama administration, that sought to reset relations with Russia and based its China policy on managing the peaceful rise of the coming economic power in the east.
Chinese President Xi Jinping’s assertive, nationalist, authoritarianism has since transformed China’s global outlook and willingness to project strength. It is now locked in a regional and increasingly global competition with Washington.
While lacking the strategic weight of the former Soviet Union, Moscow has made undermining US influence and internal political cohesion a centerpiece of its global strategy — witnessed by its meddling in two US elections.
It’s clear that Biden’s tough talk, boasting about a coming US economic recovery and declarations that “America is back,” is designed to undercut the shared view in Moscow and Beijing that the US is gravely weakened by two decades getting into and out of the Middle East, its paralyzing political divides and one of the world’s worst pandemic responses.
Biden’s insults for Putin and efforts to get other major Pacific powers like India, Japan, Australia and South Korea on side before meeting China send another message: that the chaotic foreign policy in which former President Donald Trump fawned over autocrats in Moscow and Beijing, ignored allies and undermined his administration’s sometimes tough strategy is on history’s trash heap…
