WASHINGTON—U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo plans to meet a Chinese delegation at a U.S. military base in Hawaii this week to discuss bilateral ties that have soured deeply since the start of the year, sources familiar with the matter said.
In addition to an intensifying strategic rivalry, the world’s top two economies have been at loggerheads in recent months over the handling of the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus pandemic and China’s move to impose new security legislation on Hong Kong.
