Biden's "Dictator" Label for Xi Jinping Sparks US-China Tensions

China has hit back at the US after President Joe Biden referred to his Chinese counterpart, Xi Jinping, as a "dictator" during a press conference. The Chinese foreign ministry accused the US of "smearing" China and interfering in its internal affairs, while state media called Biden's comments "undiplomatic" and "unpresidential". The remarks come amid heightened tensions between the two countries over issues such as trade, human rights, and Taiwan.
