The National Security Advisor of the US Jake Sullivan has said that G20 Chair India, the US, and other members will encourage China to set aside geopolitical questions and play a constructive role. He said that the United States and every other member of the G20 will encourage them to come-in in a constructive way, and really focus on problem-solving and delivering.
The White House official said that it was up to China, whether it wants to come in, or play the role of spoiler. This comes after Chinese President Xi Jinping decided to skip the G20 Summit in Delhi.
