With Concessions and Deals, China’s Leader Tries to Box Out Biden​

Xi Jinping has been making trade agreements in Asia and now Europe, hoping to head off the incoming president’s efforts to rally a united front against China.

A trade pact with 14 other Asian nations. A pledge to join other countries in reducing carbon emissions to fight global warming. Now, an investment agreement with the European Union.

China’s leader, Xi Jinping, has in recent weeks made deals and pledges that he hopes will position his country as an indispensable global leader, even after its handling of the coronavirus and increased belligerence at home and abroad have damaged its international standing.

In doing so, he has underlined how difficult it will be for President-elect Joseph R. Biden Jr. to forge a united front with allies against China’s authoritarian policies and trade practices, a central focus of the new administration’s plan to compete with Beijing and check its rising power. The image of Mr. Xi joining Chancellor Angela Merkel of Germany, President Emmanuel Macron of France and other European leaders in a conference call on Wednesday to seal the deal with the European Union also amounted to a stinging rebuke of the Trump administration’s efforts to isolate China’s Communist Party state.

Yes, he's been quite disappointing on both relations with China and the handling of COVID 19.

Unfortunately, the alternative would be much worse.

Yes. Actually Now I think about it. It could be a lot worse. Your opposition is not much better. Or, heaven forbid. You might get someone like Morrison OZ. can't bear thinking about. I got the shivers just thinking about it! Lol

Gee, aljazeera was an "ok". (Not good, but not bad either) news outlet few years ago. Now it just a rabid anti-China like the best of the west.
Aljazeera become extremely Anti-China these days. And because a sizeable Muslim population follow it and trust it, they tend to believe whatever is being posted. Among Muslims, Chinas image has taken a beating because of such outlets . Their fake news headline last month that Pork is being forcibly fed to Uighurs went viral and naturally caused a lot of resentment.

Because its state owned ,China should consider it to be the official line of Qatar & carry out economic sanctions against them. The damage caused by such media is much more extreme than many think.

But I thought they used to be neutral. But yes, I noticed they are very anti-China to a point they will make up anything just to put China in a bad light.
