(CNSNews.com) – President Joe Biden spoke Wednesday by phone to Chinese President Xi Jinping for the first time since becoming president, a conversation which according to the White House included wishes for the Chinese new year on Friday and an exchange of views “on countering the COVID-19 pandemic.”
A brief White House readout of the call made no reference to deep concerns shared by the U.S. and some allies about the Chinese authorities’ mishandling of the coronavirus outbreak that emerged in Wuhan in late 2019.
