21 June 2023 at 02:53 Biden referred to China’s president as a dictator The day after Foreign Minister Antony Blinken’s meeting with China’s President Xi Jinping, the latter is referred to as a dictator by US President Joe Biden. Biden made the statement at a fundraiser in California, just one day after Blinken met Xi in Beijing on a trip that was supposed to try to improve relations between the two countries. The president spoke about the incident with the Chinese balloon that was shot down over the United States earlier this year. – The reason why Xi Jinping got very upset when I shot down that balloon with two vans full of spy equipment was because he didn’t know it was there, Biden said. – It is a great embarrassment for dictators. When they didn’t know what happened. It wasn’t meant to be where it was. It was blown off course, he continued. The statement also comes after Biden himself said on Monday that he believed the relationship between the US and China was on the right track, and with that indicated that progress had been made on Blinken’s journey.
