"US and Chinese Military Officials Hold Talks at Pentagon to Discuss Relations and Taiwan"
US and Chinese military officers have resumed talks at the Pentagon after a hiatus following Nancy Pelosi's visit to Taiwan in 2022. The discussions aim to prevent escalating competition between the two powers from turning into direct conflict, with potential future meetings between Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin and Chinese Defense Minister Dong Jun being considered. The resumption of talks follows a call between senior military officials from both countries and was agreed upon by Presidents Biden and Xi during their summit. The talks address policy concerns and operational safety in the Indo-Pacific, with the U.S. emphasizing its commitment to the "One China" policy guided by the Taiwan Relations Act.
