Instead, she pointed out the Biden administration does not want to make an enemy of China.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWell, first, let me say that we\u2019re not looking, as you know, for confrontation with China,\u201d Psaki stated. \u201cSo, we are watching that closely. I can\u2019t make any other predictions from here.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This came amid backlash over Biden\u2019s skinny budget released on Friday, which critics said puts national security behind social projects on the Democrat agenda.<\/p>\n<h4>MORE NEWS: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/gaetz-hires-trump-defense-lawyer-for-sex-trafficking-probe\/\">Gaetz Hires Trump Defense Lawyer For Sex-Trafficking Probe<\/a><\/h4>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>White House press secretary Jen Psaki spoke at a press briefing at the White House, Friday, April 9, 2021, in Washington.
