US Secretary of State Antony Blinken recently met his Chinese counterpart Wang Yi when he raised concerns about China's destabilizing actions in the South China Sea, officials said.
During the interaction, Blinken emphasized the importance of maintaining peace and stability across the Taiwan Strait.
"The Secretary made clear that the United States, together with our allies and partners, will advance our vision for a free and open Indo-Pacific," read the statement issued by the US Department of State.
The leaders interacted during their recent meeting in Laos on the sidelines of the ASEAN foreign ministers meeting.
"The Secretary reiterated serious concern with PRC support for Russia’s defense industrial base and made clear that if the PRC does not act to address this threat to European security, the United States will continue to take appropriate measures to do so," the US State Department said in a statement.
