The Biden administration's Indo-Pacific strategy to counter China is facing challenges, with allies frustrated by economic issues. China is urged to increase fiscal spending to support its economy amid Western trade restrictions. President Biden's meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping in San Francisco aimed to defuse tensions, but an offhand remark by Biden may have strained the relationship. The meeting addressed issues such as fentanyl control and military exchanges, but concerns remain over the impact on U.S.-China relations and the BRI projects. China's economic conditions, foreign direct investment, and U.S. export restrictions are contributing to a more conciliatory tone from Chinese leaders. The meeting also avoided discussing Trump-era tariffs on Chinese goods.
