  Exploring the Boundaries of China-US


  Strategic Competition

          hina-US  relations deteriorated sharply in 2022, with a serious
          crisis erupting over the sensitive Taiwan question. Compared
          to the policy in his first year in office, US President Joe Biden's
China  policy in his second  year is marked  by more  focused  objectives
and  concrete, ruthless actions. China has responded firmly to America's
containment   attempt  and  fought back  against US   provocations. The
Chinese  responses are designed to guide and shape the US  policy toward
China. At  the moment,  the bilateral relationship can be characterized as
negative and  is getting more  confrontational and  uncertain, while the
boundaries of strategic rivalry between the two sides are still unclear. Given
that there are no signs that either country's strategic positions or the basic
patterns of bilateral relations will change significantly in the immediate
future, both  countries are willing to strengthen  management   of  their
relationship, increase contacts and dialogue, enhance the predictability of
bilateral relations, and avoid serious unintended conflicts. Furthermore,
both  sides want to engage in practical cooperation in areas of common
interests. The first in-person meeting between Chinese President Xi Jinping
and US  President Joe Biden in November   2022  achieved tangible results.
Implementing   the consensus reached by  the two leaders has become  the
core issue of bilateral interactions in 2023. In particular, exploring the
boundaries  of China-US  strategic rivalry will be an important common
task for both sides.
