Amid heightened tensions, US Treasury Secretary Yellen embarks on a four-day visit to China

US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen arrives in Beijing.

According to Chinese state media, the 76-year-old landed in the Chinese capital on Thursday afternoon (local time).

Your visit follows the visit of US Secretary of State Antony Blinken (61) to Beijing in May and, according to Washington, is intended to help both sides to use communication channels more intensively. At the talks scheduled in Beijing, Yellen wants to talk about macroeconomic and financial developments in the world, the US Treasury Department said earlier this week. According to experts, no substantive breakthroughs are to be expected from your visit.

Relations between the two world powers are currently at an all-time low. The tough course of US President Joe Biden (80) against China, the ongoing trade war, China’s support for Russian President Vladimir Putin (70) and its war of aggression against Ukraine, China’s territorial claims in the southern and eastern China Sea and Beijing’s threats to the Democratic Island Republic of Taiwan strained the relationship.
