In the wake of President Biden’s last meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping, Professor Minxin Pei wrote about the policy the Biden administration put in place to fund infrastructure, semiconductors and clean energy programs, tighten regulation on tech exports via security ties with allied countries, and isolate China.
