"Trump Is Going To Get Rid Of U.S.-China Dialogue Channel"I want to communicate directly with Xi Jinping."

In the second Trump administration, the various channels of dialogue between the U.S. and China established by the Biden administration are likely to disappear.

The Wall Street Journal reported that both Trump and President Biden are tough on China, but their strategies to deal with China are very different.

The newspaper said it recognized Trump as using the U.S.-China dialogue as a means of bringing it into endless dialogue without substantial change, and predicted he would not maintain the more than 20 high-level channels opened by the Biden administration.

Trump's transition team also told China that it wants to communicate directly with key aides, including President Xi Jinping's chief of staff, Chiayi, the head of the Central Public Prosecutor's Office, without going through official diplomatic channels.

China, on the other hand, sees talks with the United States as always in its own interests and prefers the predictability it gets from repeated dialogue devices, the newspaper explained.

He also evaluated that the proposal to talk directly with Xi was a major departure from convention and that the Chinese government was not ready to accept it.
