US ambassador accuses China of stirring anti-American sentiment

The United States’ ambassador to China, Nicholas Burns, is accusing Beijing of going against its agreement to repair relations between Chinese and U.S. citizens.

After President Biden and Chinese leader Xi Jinping met last year, the duo agreed to boost engagement among regular citizens, but Burns told The Wall Street Journal that China has actively undermined that agreement.

For example, the Journal reported, citizens who attend events organized by the U.S. in China have been interrogated and intimidated.
