 U.S. Secretary of State Anthony Blicken has accused China of acting more aggressively abroad and more repressive at home. He said this in an interview with CBS News, adding that the U.S. did not want to hold China down, but would not allow it to undermine the rules-based international order. He noted that a military confrontation was profoundly against the interests of both countries, centers of sword in recent times over trade, espionage and the pandemic.
