Biden aims to oppose China’s global infrastructure plan with the new G7 initiative

As part of the new infrastructure announcement, the United States said the 7 groups will work with partners and the private sector to “collectively encourage hundreds of billions of dollars in infrastructure investment for low- and middle-income countries in need.”

While the investment is facing the infrastructure gap in low- and middle-income countries, officials have suggested that the initiative could be in the “hundreds of billions of dollars” in Balochistan, but have not yet provided a specific figure or how much concrete information each nation will contribute.

The money will come from US government finance groups, non-private sector companies and G7 countries, but it was not immediately clear how much each was expected to pay.

Officials described the global infrastructure pitch not as a conflict with China, but as an alternative route.

“It’s not about choosing countries between us and China. It’s about having a firm, alternative vision and approach that they want to choose,” the first executive said.

The second official, Biden, made it clear to the world that he would “pressurize his fellow leaders to take decisive action on forced labor, a practice that is an insult to human dignity and an excellent example of China’s unfair economic competition.”

The administration argues that China should be specifically named in the final G7 report, although it is not clear whether it will end in a final agreement to be released on Sunday.

At one point, Biden forcibly called on other leaders to speak out against China’s anti – democratic practices, stressing the need for the authorities to take action.

During his vaccination announcement, Biden underlined that there were no strings attached to accepting vaccines purchased in the United States. The White House has said it is concerned about efforts by Russia and China to use vaccines for geopolitical gain.
