State Department warns incoming Biden administration of China's intent to be top world power

FOX News

Chinese state media with optimistic tone after Biden win. In a detailed policy document, President Trump's State Department is warning the incoming administration that it must address a Chinese government intent on displacing the United States as the world's foremost power. "The Trump administration achieved a fundamental break with the conventional wisdom. It concluded that the CCP's [Chinese Communist Party's] resolute conduct and self-professed goals require the United States and other countries to revise assumptions and develop a new strategic doctrine to address the primacy and magnitude of the China challenge," according to the document. The State Department's policy planning office, often called the department's "think tank," wrote the report as a long-term document to "sketch a framework for the fashioning of sturdy policies that stand above bureaucratic squabbles and interagency turf battles and transcend short-term election cycles."
