President Biden Shows Weakness During APEC Meeting 2023
During an interview on “Cats and Cosby” with presenter John Catsimatidis, Johnson stated that “anyone who looks at this objectively has to agree that President Biden is projecting weakness on the world stage.” “I come from the school of former U.S. President Reagan. He would often say that the way we keep the peace is through strength. He had every reason to be right. On the sidelines of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) meeting that was held in San Francisco, President Biden and President Xi of China met on Wednesday at the Filoli Historic House and Garden in Woodside, California.
According to reports, the two world leaders had a conversation about concerns regarding fentanyl, Israel’s battle with Hamas, and military communications. During a press conference that took place after the APEC meeting, President Joe Biden referred to Chinese President Xi Jinping as a “dictator.” China later attacked Biden for his comments. “If you project weakness, you invite aggression,” Johnson reportedly stated, as reported by The Hill. “We are living in perilous times right now if we continue to invite aggression against our nation. Because of this, you will notice that China, Iran, Russia, and all of our other rivals throughout the world are acting in a very provocative manner.
