Trump’s China policy lacks strategy and coherence: former Biden officials

AI Summary
Former Biden administration officials have criticized Donald Trump's China policy, stating it lacks strategy, coherence, and a clear framework. Speaking at a Carnegie Endowment for International Peace event, they claimed that upon entering office in 2021, they found little evidence of a systemic policy from Trump's first term, a pattern they see repeating. Laura Rosenberger, a former National Security Council official, noted the absence of an integrated policy approach across the US government. The critique comes after a delay in a planned summit between Trump and Chinese leader Xi Jinping, intended to stabilize relations. The officials also warned of Trump's unilateral approach and marginalization of allies, hindering the US's ability to leverage collective power.
