The US-China relationship is probably the most consequential and tricky one any modern American president has to deal with.
Biden called Trump erratic on China and his foreign policy advisers have said that the President's approach -- particularly taking action without consulting allies -- has undermined the ultimate goal of competing with China. Biden has said there are areas where it is in the US interest to work with Beijing, including on climate change and North Korea. Biden advisers say he will work closely with allies to present a united front on issues such as technology, including Huawei and 5G, intellectual property theft and China's expansion in Asian waters.
