Biden tells Quad leaders that Beijing is testing region at turbulent moment for Chinese economy
==========

President Joe Biden addressed Indo-Pacific allies on September 21, 2024, asserting that China's military assertiveness is a test of the region amid economic turmoil in China. He described Beijing's actions as a 'change in tactic, not a change in strategy.' Biden highlighted China's economic struggles post-coronavirus pandemic, including slow industrial activity and real estate prices. He met with leaders from Australia, India, and Japan, emphasizing the importance of intense diplomacy in the face of competition. The Quad summit, hosted in Wilmington, Delaware, is the fourth in-person meeting since 2021, with leaders discussing maritime security and humanitarian cooperation to counter China's assertiveness. Biden and Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida discussed strengthening ties with South Korea, while Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi addressed his neutral stance on Russia's invasion of Ukraine. The leaders plan to issue a joint statement with strong language on China and North Korea and announce initiatives related to cancer reduction in the Indo-Pacific.
