Biden urges pushback on China at G-7 Summit as members grapple with Brexit

President Biden strove to refocus the G-7 Summit on China and infrastructure Saturday as he met one-on-one with French President Emmanuel Macron in his only formal bilateral confab of the day.

“Things are going, I think, well,” said a relaxed-looking Biden, squinting in the bright sunlight as the blue waters of Carbis Bay sparkled in the background. “As we say back in the States, we’re on the same page.” Macron cited some of the hot-button issues — including climate change and the pandemic, but not ongoing conflicts with China — the G-7 countries are grappling with.
