it was only days before mr blinken flew here to china that congress passed a multibillion—dollar package of little assistance for the ukrainians, so that's why china says this is effectively american hypocrisy. what's going on with the chinese here, i think, is that they are pushing back on the americans. they say that washington is trying to contain them commercially, trying to encircle them geopolitically. the american say, well, they would lift sanctions or tariffs if beijing changes its behaviour. so, there is still a lot of friction, a lot of about this relationship. but we've also heard more about the desire, i think by both sides, to try to stabilise this relationship, keep it on an even keel and the first part of this visit in shanghai, mr blinken said they have a responsibility to the whole world to manage the relationship and the most senior chinese communist party official in shanghai said the us and china can choose, in his words, between cooperation or confrontation, and he said the whole of humanity had its fate resting on how they manage the relationship. tom bateman repor
