Former Vice President Mike Pence is calling on President Joe Biden to toughen his stance on China, including delisting Chinese companies that don’t meet U.S. accounting standards, withholding research funds and demanding that China reveal the origins of the coronavirus pandemic.
Pence said the Chinese regime is a threat to the U.S. that aspires to be the dominant global power, and he slammed the Biden administration for rejoining the Paris Climate Accord and other moves that he said benefit China.
