“He (Biden) also discussed China when talking to the European alliance,” he said. “It is part of the strategy to first contact allies and consult with Congress through these calls.”

Saki also said that when asked if China is concerned about China’s refusal to engage in a military coup in Myanmar, the US national security team has been in contact with many partners and allies, and that the US has taken swift action, stipulating that it is a coup.
