Secretary of State Antony Blinken met with top Chinese diplomat Wang Yi on Saturday for the first in-person meeting between senior U.S. and Chinese officials since the shootdown of the suspected Chinese spy balloon earlier this month.
In a meeting on the sidelines of the Munich Security Conference, Mr. Blinken addressed the spy balloon saga head-on with his Chinese counterpart, according to a statement from State Department spokesperson Ned Price.
Vice President Kamala Harris, who led the U.S. envoy to the conference in Munich, came under fire earlier in the week for downplaying the impact that the takedown of the Chinese spy balloon over U.S. airspace will have on diplomatic relations between the two countries. She added that the U.S. seeks “competition, but not conflict or confrontation” with Beijing, in keeping with President Biden’s stated approach before the surveillance balloon saga.
