Blinken in China: What's on the agenda? | DW News

US Secretary of State Antony Blinken has arrived in China for a three-day visit, amid growing tensions between the two countries. Blinken is expected to discuss a number of issues, including China’s support for Russia. The US says China is helping Russia's war effort in Ukraine, adding that it damages US security. This comes as the US Congress passed a bill to ban the social media platform TikTok, unless its Chinese owner sells off its US assets. Lawmakers have been concerned about possible Chinese government control of TikTok. ByteDance has denied that it shares sensitive user data with the Chinese government. TikTok has about 170 million users in the US. Blinken's visit comes at a particularly tense time between China and the US: What are the main issues that will be discussed during Blinken's visit?
