>> Steve: A FOX NEWS ALERT.
EVERY MOMENT NOW,
PRESIDENT BIDEN IS EXPECTED TO
DELIVER REMARKS REGARDING THE
HIGH-STAKES MEETING HE JUST
COMPLETED WITH THE XI JINPING.
FIRST FACE-TO-FACE SINCE
JOE BIDEN TOOK ACTION.
THE POST, PIERS MORGAN, GOOD
AFTERNOON TO YOU OVER IN
ENGLAND.
>> GOOD AFTERNOON, GOOD MORNING
TO YOU OVER IN NEW YORK.
>> Steve: THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
WE ARE GETTING THE READOUTS OF A
LITTLE BIT ABOUT WHAT THEY
TALKED ABOUT.
IT SAYS THAT THE UNITED STATES
IS GOING TO CONTINUE TO COMPETE
WITH CHINA.
WE ARE OPPOSED TO ANY SORT OF
NUCLEAR REACTION IN UKRAINE.
WE DON’T LIKE WHAT IS GOING ON
WITH NORTH KOREA, AND WE WILL
WORK TOGETHER WHEN IT COMES TO
GLOBAL FOOD SECURITY,
HEALTH CARE, AND CLIMATE CHANGE.
DOES THAT SURPRISE YOU?
>> WELL, IT ALL SOUNDS GOOD,
DOESN’T IT?
BUT THE REALITY IS THAT CHINA’S
PRESIDENT XI NOW HAS PRETTY
UNLIMITED POWER, PROBABLY FOR
THE REST OF HIS LIFE, AND WE
KNOW THAT HE HAS EXTREMELY
AMBITIOUS PLANS TO MAKE CHINA
THE NUMBER ONE SUPERPOWER BOTH
ECONOMICALLY AND MILITARILY, SO
I WOULD NOT TRUST HIM, FRANKLY,
AS FAR AS I CAN THROW THEM.
THERE IS A BIT OF PRECEDENT HERE
WHERE JOE BIDEN MET
VLADIMIR PUTIN LAST SUMMER, YOU
MAY REMEMBER, AND SIZED HIM UP.
HE THEN WATCHED JOE BIDEN DO
THAT CATASTROPHIC WITHDRAWAL
FROM AFGHANISTAN.
I THINK HE SENSED WEAKNESS.
HE DOES NOT HAVE A STOMACH FOR
THE FIGHT, AND THE REST IS
HISTORY.
INVADING UKRAINE A FEW MONTHS
LATER.
IT’S INCREDIBLY IMPORTANT THAT
PRESIDENT BIDEN STANDS UP TO HIM
PROPERLY AND IT IS NOT JUST TALK
BECAUSE OTHERWISE YOU WILL SEE
CHINA MOVE INTO TAIWAN, AND ALL
HELL WILL BREAK LOOSE.
>> Steve: REMEMBER WHEN HE
SAID TO PRESIDENT PUTIN DON’T
YOU GO INVADING UKRAINE?
AND HE DID, AND WHAT DID WE DO?
SO IT IS TO STOP THEM?
JOE BIDEN CAN SAY LOOK, YOU GUYS
ARE CURRENCY MANIPULATORS,
YOU’VE GOT GLOBAL HUMAN RIGHTS
VIOLATIONS, YOU ARE STEALING OUR
INTERNATIONAL PROPERTY,
INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY, THAT IS,
BUT WE’VE GOT NO LEVERAGE.
THEY MAKE ALL OF OUR STUFF OVER
THERE.
>> RIGHT.
I’M AFRAID AMERICA, LIKE MANY
COUNTRIES, HAS BECOME FAR TOO
RELIANT ON CHINA ECONOMICALLY,
AND THEY PRETTY MUCH HAVE US ALL
OVER A BARREL.
THERE HAS BEEN A LONG PERIOD OF
SEVERAL DECADES WHERE WE’VE
ALLOWED THEM TO GET EVER MORE
POWERFUL ECONOMICALLY AND
MILITARILY.
TO BE FAIR TO DONALD TRUMP, HE
WAS SOUNDING THE ALARM ABOUT
THIS 30 YEARS AGO.
WHY ARE WE ALLOWING CHINA TO
DOMINATE US ECONOMICALLY LIKE
THIS?
NOW WE ARE WHERE WE ARE.
IT IS GOING TO BE VERY DIFFICULT
TO NAVIGATE, PARTICULARLY WITH
THE PRESIDENT WHO FEELS PRETTY
WELL OMNIPOTENT AND FLEXING HIS
MUSCLES AND WANTS TO ESTABLISH
CHINA AS THE NUMBER ONE
SUPERPOWER.
WE WILL SEE WHAT HAPPENS.
AT SOME STAGE, RATHER LIKE THE
EUROPEAN RELIANCE, OVERRELIANCE,
ON RUSSIAN ENERGY, AT SOME
STAGE, AMERICA IS GOING TO HAVE
TO BECOME LESS RELIANT ON
COMMERCE AND ECONOMIC MATTERS
WITH CHINA.
IT IS JUST GOING TO HAVE TO
BECOME MORE SELF-RELIANT, LESS
RELIANT ON CHINA BECAUSE OF
CHINA HAS AN ECONOMIC HOLD ON
THE UNITED STATES, IT’S GOING TO
BE ABLE TO USE THAT TO FLEX ITS
MUSCLE GLOBALLY.
>> Steve: IS SURE.
WE SHOULD HEAR FROM JOE BIDEN
AND A COUPLE OF MINUTES.
LET’S WORK IN A PLUG FOR YOUR
PROGRAM.
YOU TALK TO PERHAPS ONE OF THE
GREATEST SOCCER PLAYERS,
FOOTBALL PLAYERS, TO YOU, IN THE
WORLD.
WHO IS FEELING BETRAYED.
WATCH THIS CLIP, AND YOU WILL
EXPLAIN IT.
>> NOT ALL IN THE COACH, BUT THE
OTHER GUYS AROUND THE CLUB.
>> AT THE SENIOR EXECUTIVE
LEVEL.
>> YES.
>> YOU THINK THAT THEY ARE
TRYING TO GET RID OF YOU.
>> HONESTLY, I SHOULD NOT SAY
THAT.
BUT YES, I FEEL BETRAYED, AND I
FELT THAT SOME PEOPLE DON’T WANT
ME THIS YEAR.
THE LAST YEAR TOO.
>> Steve: SOUNDS LIKE HE IS
TALKING ABOUT THE BUSES AT
MANCHESTER UNITED.
>> IS A BOMBSHELL INTERVIEW.
THE MOST EXPLOSIVE THAT HE HAS
EVER DONE.
FOR AMERICAN VIEWERS WHO MAY NOT
BE ALTOGETHER FAMILIAR, HE IS
THE TOM BRADY OF SOCCER --
FOOTBALL, THE MOST FOLLOWED
HUMAN BEING ON INSTAGRAM.
HALF OF THE BILLION FOLLOWERS,
SO WHEN HE SPEAKS, THE WORLD HAS
LISTENED.
HE HAS CAUSED HUGE RUPTURES OVER
HERE AND AROUND THE WORLD,
PARTICULARLY WITH THE WORLD CUP
STARTING.
MY GUESS IS THAT HE IS PROBABLY
GEARING UP TO LEAVE
MANCHESTER UNITED, WHICH WILL BE
HUGE.
>> Steve: YOU CAN WATCH ON
"FOX NATION" WEEKDAYS AT 4:30.
THE FULL 90 MINUTE INTERVIEW
WITH CHRISTIANA RENALDO DROPS IN
