U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken concluded a long-anticipated visit to China yesterday.
He also met Chinese President Xi Jinpingin the last leg of his visit after two days of talks with other senior officials.
His meeting with the Chinese President was only confirmed by the U.S. State Department shortly before it took place.
The visit was an attempt to repair the deteriorating relationship between the two countries, which Blinken had described as "one of the most consequential in the world." Antony Blinken is the first U.S. Secretary of State to visit China since 2018… and he is also the highest-ranking U.S. official to visit China since President Joe Biden took office.
Blinken's trip had aimed to built on previous meetings between the officials of the two nations.
In May, US national security adviser Jake Sullivan had met China's top diplomat, Wang Yi, in Austria.
That was followed up by a visit from top Chinese commerce officials to Washington, D.C.
But the progress, at best, was mixed.
Earlier this month, China's defense chief Li Shangfu had rejected a meeting request from U.S. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin because the U.S. had sanctioned Li in 2018 for procuring Russian-made weapons for the Chinese military.
US Secretary of State Antony Blinken visited Brussels for urgent talks with EU and NATO officials on boosting support for Ukraine, amid concerns over potential policy shifts after Donald Trump returns to the White House.

The U.S. Pentagon and President Biden have strongly condemned the International Criminal Court's (ICC) decision to issue arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant. The ICC's charges against the Israeli leaders, including crimes against humanity and war crimes, have sparked a wave of criticism from Israel and the U.S., with both sides rejecting the court's jurisdiction. The ICC's move follows Senate threats of sanctions against the court, adding further diplomatic tension.

The Biden administration has announced plans to forgive $4.7 billion in loans provided to Ukraine as part of a broader aid package. This move, aimed at supporting Ukraine's financial stability amid the ongoing war with Russia, has sparked debate in the U.S. Congress. While some lawmakers, including Senator Rand Paul, argue against the plan, it aligns with U.S. national interests and NATO's goals. The decision reflects the U.S.'s continued support for Ukraine's economic recovery and defense efforts.

As tensions escalate in Eastern Europe, U.S. officials have raised alarms about the growing military presence along the Russian-Ukrainian border. The Pentagon has warned that up to 50,000 troops, consisting of Russian forces and North Korean soldiers, are preparing to launch an offensive against Ukraine. According to U.S. Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin, these troops are being integrated into Russian military units in the Kursk region, located near the border with Ukraine. Austin expressed concerns that these forces could soon be engaged in combat, signalling a dangerous escalation in the ongoing war. The buildup of these foreign troops, along with reports of Russia providing North Korea with oil, anti-aircraft missiles, and economic aid in exchange for military support, has raised fears of a significant intensification of hostilities. As the conflict continues to evolve, both Russia and North Korea have become increasingly intertwined in military strategy, with the possibility of further destabilising the region. Ukraine, still recovering from its initial offensives, remains on high alert as this new threat looms large.

The U.S. ramps up its military presence in the Middle East with the deployment of ballistic missile destroyers and B-52 bombers, as tensions rise following Iranian threats against Israel. Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin has ordered these strategic assets to enhance deterrence and protect American personnel and allies in the region. This deployment coincides with reports of Iran potentially preparing to launch strikes against Israel, heightening concerns ahead of the U.S. presidential election. As the conflict escalates, including Israel's ongoing military operations in Gaza and Lebanon, the U.S. reaffirms its commitment to regional stability and defense.
