U.S. Secretary of State, Antony Blinken, heads to Asia before US-China meeting

In advance of the meeting later this week in Anchorage between U.S. and Chinese government officials, U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken, and his delegation, stopped through Anchorage yesterday on their way to Japan and Korea for consultations with these American partners in Northeast Asia prior to the Anchorage meeting.

During their stopover, WTC Anchorage Executive Director, Greg Wolf, had the opportunity for a meet and greet with Secretary Blinken, and his staff, and discuss Alaska's international trade posture with Asia-Pacific.

Blinken, and other high-ranking U.S. officials, will return to Anchorage later this week for the meeting with their Chinese foreign policy counterparts.
