A meaningless gesture at best. Diplomacy with the CCP is a waste of time and tax dollars. China will smile to your face and then give russia missles and ammo to slaughter thier nieghbors children and bomb daycares. A disgusting and shamful goverment.

Oh hallooo.
Whazuuuuuuppp?
Maintaining open line of communication with your adversaries should be one of the most important geopolitical goals.
Just like estranged relatives getting together. I doubt nothing much will be done except greeting each other.
Kim’s empty threats keeps the 7th fleet & 60,000 US troops busy. Americans just don’t want to withdraw from the region, Koreans & Japanese love it in the butt.
Question is are they going to speak in English or Chinese?
They’re probably going to sit in complete, awkward silence throughout that call lmao
West Taiwan is taking a call from Biden.
China is starting to feel the economic consequences of their decisions and its getting bad for them.
You go, Joe!!! I’m gonna miss him.
What on earth are these comments. The call already occurred, and what language it was spoken in is largely irrelevant. The fact that they spoke for the first time in years is huge and likely the result of the repeated collisions between Chinese and Philippine vessels.
As a graduate student in China (2011-ish), I got the amazing opportunity to have lunch with the Chairman of the Joints Chief of Staff, Admiral Michael Mullen. I got a call from the student services office since I was basically the only American student staying in country for the summer break.
I sat next to John Kirby, now the National Security Communication Advisor, who is cool as shit to talk to. John explained at the time the Chinese military had reached out to their US counterparts for a closer relationship. This included cross delegations visiting each country.
I got the chance to ask the first question to Admiral Mullen, and I gave a softball one thanking him for his service and any advice for the incoming Chairman since he was retiring. I was so nervous I didn’t even comprehend his answer. Next question came from a Chinese professor asking what he thought of the North Korea nuclear program, and I thought damn, so this is how it’s going to go.
I mostly chatted with John Kirby, who again and still is cool as shit.
Who is this white dude?
U.S. – *Can you stop being dicks!?* CCP – *No, you dicks!*
It’s time to make a pact
I wonder what they are going to say: like, um, it’s getting a bit warmer here, how is bit over there, anyways… ? Or is it more straight to business, no smalltalk, and a bullet points of concerns and demands?
Well if it keeps them from accidentally killing us all in atomic fire I’m for it
