Antony Blinken Gets Muted Greeting As He Arrives in China
By Newsweek, June 18th, 2023:
U.S Secretary of State Antony Blinken received a muted greeting as he arrived in China on Sunday to kick off high-stakes diplomatic talks.
He was welcomed by Yang Tao, Director General of the Department of North American and Oceanian Affairs of the Foreign Ministry, and U.S. Ambassador to China, Nicholas Burns, as he landed in Beijing.
THAT'S ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW.........................
Did he fall down the stairs too?
Does anyone think Blinken feels humiliated? His meetings with the ChiComs are a huge success in his and every Democrat’s mind.
“We’re back! America is respected again.” - didn’t Biden say this or something close to it?
That did not age well.
Ridiculous headline. Blinken later met Xi. How is that a “humiliation”?
Didn't even get their Foreign Minister which would be Blinken's equivalent............
No Red Carpet?
Yeah, he got that...............
You might accurately call that a slight, not a humiliation.
“Journalism” on the internet is mostly clickbait garbage.
China is at war with us in every way but actual shooting. With their Manchurian candidate in the white house, they can bring us down without firing a shot.
With China, everything has a hidden message.
The perfunctory greeting was a huge message.................
I guess Xi also knows We’re in COG and Trump is commander in chief. 😉
How is that a “humiliation”?

No outward display of respect. In the world of diplomacy this matters.
And this isn’t the first time that the Chinese have dissed Blinkin. There’s an obvious pattern.

Yep, respect is when an equal or higher up is there to greet you.
“You might accurately call that a slight, not a humiliation.”

Note that this isn’t the first time that the Chinese have dissed Blinkin. There’s an obvious pattern. Its humiliation.
There doesn’t need to be a war when the Biden folks look like weak nobrains, the Biden Treasury is weakening the dollar and forcing the world to find another reserve currency, opening our borders, and we are approaching insolvency with their Green New Deal spending. Under Biden, China is doing very well, and doesn’t need a war, and Taiwan is toast.
Was Blinken carrying a hand written note from Biden? A pay to play?
Perhaps just an uber to pick him up? This entire (’hole’) [b]administration is an embarrassment and the laughing stock of a lot of folks. Others are still planning to take us down. And branDUHn is assisting. NOT laughing over here!
It matters, but not very much, and protocol varies from country to country https://apnews.com/article/china-xi-russia-visit-putin-airport-protocol-8f70daa7ff3937c0ebb78700dad906bb
He was probably carrying a letter of apology from Biden for not doing enough for China fast enough to suit Xi..........................
