Rahm Emanuel draws attention for tweets on China
Rahm Emanuel, the US Ambassador to Japan, has been reprimanded by the White House National Security Council for his critical comments on Chinese President Xi Jinping and his social media posts that may strain relations with China.
The tensions between China and the United States have escalated during the summer months. President Biden, however, has expressed his desire to work together with China on common issues, expressing a non-confrontational stance.
Emanuel's social media activity has angered China, and the National Security Council officials have asked him to cease posting such statements online, claiming that it undermines the government's efforts to repair its relationship with China.
