Janet Yellen, the current US Treasury Secretary, is considering a visit to China in the next few months, an important milestone in assessing both countries' attitudes towards the trade war and whether the US will remove punitive tariffs on Chinese goods.
However, the Delta Variant COVID threat has not yet abated, which could be the main risk for Yellen's assessment. If the trip could take place, then a visit to China would be the highest official manifestation of the Bidden government.
Janet Yellen, who headed the Federal Reserve from 2014 to 2018, became the first woman to head the U.S. Treasury Department.
