Secretary of State Antony Blinken and National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan will meet their Chinese counterparts, Director of the Office of the Central Commission for Foreign Affairs Yang Jiechi and State Councilor Wang Yi in Anchorage on May 19, State Department spokesperson Ned Price said via a statement.
The U.S. will raise the many concerns it has with Beijing’s actions and behaviour that pose security challenges to the U.S. and its partners, Mr Blinken told the House Foreign Affairs Committee (HFAC), in front of which he was testifying when news of the Anchorage meeting broke. A State Department statement noted that the meetings will take place after Mr Blinken meets with his counterparts in South Korea and Japan – which is scheduled to happen earlier next week.
