The United States won’t seek to decouple its economy from China, according to Secretary of State Antony Blinken, who unveiled the Biden administration’s China strategy on May 26.

“The United States does not want to sever China’s economy from ours or from the global economy, though Beijing, through its rhetoric, is pursuing asymmetric decoupling, seeking to make China less dependent on the world and the world more dependent on China,” Blinken said.
