US Ambassador to China, Nicholas Burns, spoke out against China's active sabotage of US-China relations by questioning Chinese citizens attending US Embassy activities, restricting social media posts, and inciting anti-American sentiment, despite the agreement in promoting people-to-people exchanges to repair relations. Burns expressed concern over the stabbing of four teachers from Iowa's Cornell College in China and Beijing's efforts to hinder US diplomatic activities, causing tension in the seemingly eased US-China relations after the Biden-Xi meeting. China's indirect support for Russia's war in Ukraine and reliance on exports affecting global markets continue to strain US-China ties, especially as the upcoming US presidential election in November heightens tensions.
