Biden’s pick for foreign policy head affirms a push to get allies on board with U.S. policy on China
22:00 - On Monday, Biden announced he intends to nominate Antony Blinken as secretary of State. If confirmed, the appointment puts Blinken at the front lines of Biden’s China policy. “One of the things that this picking signifies is that Biden will almost certainly make good his promise to re-engage U.S. allies,” Isaac Stone Fish, a senior fellow at the Asia Society, said in a phone interview. “Trump has already seriously wounded China-U.S. relations. Although the Biden ... and his team are very familiar with China, they cannot avoid these problems,” said Shen Yamei, deputy director and associate research fellow at state-backed think tank China Institute of International Studies’ department for American studies.

Biden puts health care front and center with a call to expand Obamacare
19:05 - President-elect Joe Biden put health care front and center for a second day, delivering a speech in Wilmington on the need to expand Obamacare. “This doesn’t need to be a partisan issue. It’s a human issue,” said Biden. If Republicans hold their majority in the Senate, expanding the ACA is unlikely to be a legislative reality any time soon.

WTO says U.S. tariffs on Chinese goods violated international trade rules
12:57 - The World Trade Organization ruled on Tuesday that additional tariffs imposed in 2018 by the United States on Chinese goods violated international trading rules, a blow to the Trump administration’s trade war against the world’s second largest economy. A three-person panel of WTO trade experts said Washington broke with global regulations in 2018 when it slapped more than $200 billion in levies on a slew of Chinese goods. Since March 2018, the United States has imposed tariffs on $400 billion in Chinese exports.
