Blinken in China: China Shows Off Nuclear Might in a Video | Vantage with Palki Sharma

Amid growing tensions between the US and China, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken has arrived in China today. During his three-day visit, Blinken could meet Chinese President Xi Jinping and some senior Chinese officials. Ahead of his visit, the US cleared a military aid bill worth $8 billion for Taiwan - a move that triggered a sharp reaction from Beijing. A bill to ban TikTok in the US and complaints over China's support to Russia could further intensify tensions between the two arch rivals. Before Blinken's arrival - China released a video, which showed a nuclear submarine firing a ballistic missile. Palki Sharma tells you why Blinken's visit may not lead to a diplomacy breakthrough.
