Jake Sullivan expected to discuss ‘competitive relationship’ with Beijing’s top diplomat, from counternarcotics to military communications.
US National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan will travel next week to Beijing to meet Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi, marking the first trip to China by a national security adviser during President Joe Biden’s administration.
The visit from Tuesday to Thursday will be the fifth time the two high-ranking officials will have met, following their last meeting in January in Bangkok, Thailand, a senior US administration official told reporters on Friday.
