Deputy Secretary of State Kurt Campbell testified on strategic competition with China before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. Topics included China competing with the U.S. for influence in the Global South, the country assisting Russia with its war against Ukraine, clean energy dominance, and the U.S. not having ambassadors in more than 20 countries where China does have ambassadors. In regard to the last issue, Mr. Campbell said, "I find it embarrassing," when the U.S. engages in diplomacy with nations that do not have U.S. ambassadors, saying it was antithetical to strategic interests. Moreover, the committee's chair, Sen. Ben Cardin (D-MD), condemned Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro for holding onto power despite losing the popular vote to his opposition.
