Donald Trump
The International Affairs Committee of the National People's Congress (parliament) has demanded that the United States revise the budget signed by the current President Donald Trump. Writes about this TASS.
“Washington should refuse to implement clauses with negative content concerning the PRC,” Beijing said in a statement. He called some items of the US budget for 2021 interference in the internal affairs of China. Beijing believes that Washington wants to “stir up separatist sentiments in Taiwan” and is spreading false information about Chinese politics in Hong Kong, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region and Tibet.
In the 2021 budget, Trump approved $ 300 million to go to fight Beijing. In addition, the budget includes $ 290 million for countering Russia and $ 900 billion for a stimulus package to combat the COVID-19 pandemic.
Recently, relations between China and the United States have been strained – the countries are waging a trade war and accuse each other of interfering in internal affairs. For example, Washington has repeatedly criticized Chinese policy towards the Uighurs, as well as the population of Hong Kong, Tibet and Taiwan.
