Joe Biden decided not to go with rodeos. The presidential president accused Vladimir Putin of being an “assassin” and his team received a Chinese delegation with a salvo of accusations, a diplomatic style that illustrated its willingness to resist the “autocrats”.
He has been hoping for a more outspoken foreign policy that has lasted a long time as senator and vice president, despite the torts of all and the former formators of his predecessor Donald Trump.
For the first two months of his term, and more than the last few days, he marked a ton of strength.
When a periodist questioned whether the Russian president was “an assassin,” Joe Biden responded affirmatively without hesitation.
And since it was interrogated about a possible decision, the Casa Blanca made sure that the president did not repeat his remarks.
This is not the first time that a Democrat has dedicated his speech to the Kremlin.
“It is clear from President Putin’s, in a very different way to my predecessor, that the time at which the United States is committed to the aggressive acts of Russia (…) has ended,” he said, referring to the principles of February, only after the first telephone call between employees.
Biden showcased the company with Chinese President Xi Jinping. “It’s very hard”, “I do not have a piece of democracy”, said in February.
“If we do not have anything, we aplastarán”, added a few days later, a marathon of two hours with his homologue.
– The “values” of the United States –
Although this language is considered to have been traced back to Trump, the context is very different.
“Trump has personal affinities with the autocrats, with the ‘strong men’. The admiral”, dice Thomas Wright, integrator of the expert Brookings Institution.
“In reality, Trump has a mayoral problem with United States allies. He is more concerned with his allies than his rivals.”
Since leaving power in January, Joe Biden and his team have been working to seduce Washington’s friends and denounce the “authoritarianism” of Moscow and Beijing.
These words are part of this strategy and an external policy that has the defense of human rights and the “values” of the United States a priority.
“The preoccupation is with the progression of authoritarianism and the fact that democracies need to work harder to counterattack,” Wright told AFP.
The president of the stadium also wants to organize a “cumberre de las democracias” in a fecha aún no fijada.
The most surprising quizzes are that of Secretary of State, Antony Blinken, a retired diplomat from school life, greeted by the Ministers of External Relations of China the Jews in Alaska with an offensive speech, accusing Peking, in front of the cameras of all the world, of “amenazar la instabilidad mundial”.
“These models have very many diplomatic etiquette!”, Reageer op China.
For Thomas Wright, it is “revealed that the relationship between the United States and China is defined by rivalry and competence”.
For James Carafano, of the Heritage Foundation’s curator, Blinken’s all the reason ‘for being a firm and the Biden administration has nothing to lose by showing so much.
“It’s hard with Russia or China reunites as much as the Democratic lad as a Republican. All the world will be hard” with these United States opponents, signal.
Carafano also notes a great deal of continuity between the first acts of the Democrats and the Republican Party, which has been opposed to the two rival powers including when President Trump intended to stage his “friendship” with Vladimir Putin or Xi Jinping.
