this month, but contact between the countries’ militaries “unfortunately” remains shut down, the White House said on Friday.
“I recognise that there are tensions, but Secretary Blinken still has an open line of communication with the foreign minister. We still have an embassy in Beijing ... and the State Department also can communicate directly with the PRC embassy personnel here,” he said, referring to the People’s Republic of China.
On Thursday, Mr Biden gave a speech focusing on the balloon incident. He said he expected to speak with Chinese leader Xi about it and hoped to get to the bottom of the affair. Mr Kirby’s comment came as US officials have been looking at the possibility of a meeting between Mr Blinken and China’s top diplomat Wang Yi on the sidelines of the Munich Security Conference that began on Friday.
