Biden to ‘confront’ China’s economic prowess with multi-trillion infrastructure boost

Sky News contributor Michael Ware says President Joe Biden “certainly is not stepping back” on a number of the foreign policy achievements introduced by Donald Trump. Tariffs and restrictions remain in place against China and a key focus of the Biden administration's first months in office has been on strengthening military alliances. Mr Ware said Mr Biden wants to continue to “confront China on the economic front and is looking to do so through an “economic renewal” in America achieved via a multi-trillion infrastructure spending plan. "At the core of President Biden’s foreign policy is strengthening America’s middle class and that’s what he sees will be an engine that will enable America to drive forward into this new age of great power politics”. The US currently ranks 13th in the world on infrastructure spending and only allocates a third of the amount allocated by China. Via news.com.au — Australia’s leading news site https://www.news.com.au
