Xi will meet the leader of Vietnam s ruling Communist Party, Nguyen Phu Trong, after it upgraded its diplomatic ties with Washington when US President Joe Biden visited in September.
Reacting to US Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo comments - that described China as the US biggest threat - Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Wang Wenbin said on Monday that Biden once noted that the US is not seeking to halt China s economic development or scientific and technological progress. "China never bets against the US, and has no intention to challenge or unseat it," Wang said.
