Chinese State Media Turns on the Charm

“Chinese state media is highlighting the history of U.S.-China people-to-people ties and Chinese leader Xi Jinping’s own positive experiences in the U.S. ahead of his meeting with President Biden this week,” Axios reports.

“It’s the first time since Biden became president that Chinese state media has launched a sweeping pro-U.S. messaging campaign. The propaganda push, aimed at charming both domestic and U.S. audiences, signals Beijing may be serious about getting the U.S.-China relationship on more stable footing.”
