Biden's Criticism of China Accidentally Made Public at Quad Summit

wilmington - During a private meeting with leaders of Australia, India, and Japan, U.S. President Joe Biden unintentionally criticized China, stating that China continues to behave aggressively and test them in the entire region.

U.S. President Joe Biden, during a meeting at his private residence in Delaware with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida, and Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese, inadvertently voiced his concerns about China's behavior. Biden mentioned that China remains aggressive and poses challenges to them in the region.

The four leaders, part of a diplomatic cooperation group known as the Quad, discussed issues in the Indo-Pacific region, expressing worries about tensions in the South and East China Seas without explicitly naming China.

Earlier in the day, in a public statement, Biden expressed confidence in the longevity of Quad relations, regardless of the outcome of the upcoming U.S. presidential elections in November. "The Quad will endure, well beyond November," Biden assured, receiving support from Albanese, Kishida, and Modi.
