We can infer based on what he has done in the past; escalate trade wars and sanction individuals. I'm not sure that will deter China. It didn't deter Russia. Or Iran. Or North Korea.
So you're just gonna guess.
No, Biden is actually dealing with world events and world powers and world leaders maturely while you sit on your couch and complain.
Announcing the sanctions against Russia - good. Announcing sanctions against China bad?
What's frustrating about this administration is this same song and dance of cloak and dagger answers they give.It looks like Putin is gonna pay a HUGE economic price for murdering teachers and dentists and small business owners.
"We have that concern," White House press secretary Jen Psaki said. "The President detailed what the implications and consequences would be if China provides material support to Russia as it conducts brutal attacks against Ukrainian cities and civilians. And that is something we'll be watching and the world will be watching."
Senior administration officials described the call as "direct," "substantive" and "detailed," but would not offer many details about the lengthy conversation. The bulk of the leaders' discussion centered on the war in Ukraine and the implications the crisis would have for US-China relations and the "international order," an official said. But the administration refused to publicly detail what those consequences would be."
Biden uses call with Xi to lay out consequences for China if it supports Russia attack on Ukraine
President Joe Biden sought to use a 110-minute video call on Friday to dissuade his Chinese counterpart from assisting Russia in its war on Ukraine, a pivotal moment that could determine the trajectory of the bloody conflict.www.cnn.com
Effectiviness???
what you really mean is that this administration doesn't live on Twitter.
Starting a trade war for fun vs. putative measures against an aggressor?
are you sure about that?
I mean what I say.
this administration does what competent administrations do. they don't live on Twitter and opinion TV shows to inflame issues.
This administration lacks providing the adequate amount of transparency for the public's trust.
you're not gonna get information about our negotiations, threats and covert ops during a war where we're trying to stop the slaughter of fellow humans.
didn't they just completely stop news conferences?
You don't need to know. You may have gotten used to the previous presidential imposter bragging and blustering and boasting about what he could do if he decided to do something but that's not how diplomacy normally works. A lot is behind the scenes and that's how it should be. We'll just take as a given that whatever went on, you disapprove of it.
