.POTUS will disembark Air Force One in Japan to meet with leaders of some of the world's most advanced economies as the US remains under threat of a default. But, Biden has decided to skip side trips to Australia and Papua New Guinea.
But Biden's decision to skip side trips to Australia and Papua New Guinea to take part in the debt ceiling negotiations with House Speaker Kevin McCarthy is now also being criticized for handing a political win for China in the Indo-Pacific.
Former White House deputy national security adviser Victoria Coates contended,"It's hard to argue with the fact that China is coming out on top of this particular exchange." "The added foot stomp of the Quad in Sydney would have been both symbolically and substantively very important, but that has to be canceled now he decided to push the debt ceiling issue to the last minute," she said."We're looking at India hosting the G-20, which does include both China and Russia, in September in New Delhi, and that's going to be the far trickier meeting, so I very much hope that they come out of Japan with something fairly concrete that can be built on.
White House aides have similarly dismissed the idea Biden's standing will be diminished in Japan amid the debt ceiling negotiations. International democratic leaders respect U.S. leadership, even after former President Bill Clinton also scrapped plans to attend Japan's G-7 in 1995 because of a federal government shutdown, according to National Security Council spokesman John Kirby.
Biden is traveling to Japan to participate in the G-7, which includes Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the United Kingdom, and the European Union, in addition to Australia, Brazil, Comoros, Cook Islands, India, Indonesia, South Korea, and Vietnam this year.
