“We don’t know. Literally so,” Sullivan said in response to a question about what had happened to the Chinese minister.
Sullivan noted that Foreign Minister Anthony Blinken should have met with Qin Gang at the ASEAN forum in Indonesia, but China was represented there by Wang Yi, another representative of the Chinese Foreign Ministry.
