In a welcomed move for both countries, United States President Joe Biden and China’s President Xi Jinping have agreed to restore military ties which will help ease tensions between the two superpowers. After months of tension, Biden has taken a much more conciliatory approach towards China in recent months.
The agreement between the two leaders came after months of discussion and was revealed in a joint statement on Friday. In it, Biden and Xi expressed their commitment to restoring military ties in order to reduce tensions and create trust between the two countries. They agreed to develop communication protocols and share information on military activities in order to reduce the risk of miscalculations that could lead to conflict.
The restoration of military ties is expected to have a positive effect on both countries. For China, it could reduce the risk of a major conflict with the United States which could destabilize the region. For the United States, the groundbreaking agreement could ease tensions over the South China Sea – an issue which has been a major point of contention between the two countries for decades.
The agreement also has implications for global security. By restoring military ties, the United States and China will be able to share information and develop communication protocols in order to reduce the risk of miscalculation and potential conflict. This could lead to a more stable world in which two of the most powerful nations in the world can peacefully coexist.
Biden and Xi’s agreement to restore military ties is an important moment in the history of US-China relations. It could be a major milestone in furthering both countries’ objectives and help ease tensions between them. Though it is yet to be seen what the full impact of this agreement will be, it is clear that once the two leaders have taken this initiative, the stage is set for further dialogue and understanding to follow.
