JOINT BASE ANDREWS, Md. (Reuters) – U.S. President Joe Biden said on Wednesday that he expects to speak with his Chinese counterpart, Xi Jinping, within the next 10 days.
In response to reporters’ questions on a reportedly planned trip by House of Representatives Speaker Nancy Pelosi to Taiwan, Biden said the military does not think it’s a good idea to travel to the Chinese-claimed island right now.
