Nikki Haley criticizes Biden’s China stance.
Republican presidential candidate Nikki Haley criticizes Biden’s handling of China
Former governor of South Carolina and Republican presidential candidate Nikki Haley has expressed disappointment in President Joe Biden’s approach to China. In a recent appearance on State of the Union, Haley referred to China as an “enemy” of the United States and criticized Biden for not taking a stronger stance against the Eastern nation.
“I view China as an enemy, and what’s disappointing about what Biden has done is here you have China has bought up 400,000 acres of U.S. soil, most recently near Grand Forks Air Force Base,” Haley stated. ”They bought our largest pork producer in the country. They continue to steal $600 billion in intellectual property. They’re sending millions of dollars to our universities, and stealing our research, and spreading propaganda.”
Haley questioned how much more needs to happen before Biden confronts China and declares that the U.S. will not tolerate their actions. She also disagreed with the idea of sending more U.S. Cabinet members to China as a solution.
During a press conference in Hanoi, Vietnam, Biden responded to accusations from Chinese President Xi Jinping that he wants to contain China. Biden denied the allegations and emphasized the importance of maintaining a transparent and fair relationship with China.
“I just want to make sure we have a relationship with China that is on the up and up, squared away,” said Biden.
Biden has also highlighted China’s economic struggles, with prices falling and the country’s gross domestic product slowing down. He believes that these economic challenges may reduce the likelihood of China invading Taiwan, a concern shared by many in the U.S.
Haley’s presidential campaign and poll results

Ron DeSantis, and Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC) in the party’s primary.
