In his speech to China and Russia, Biden said, "The American leadership must confront this growing dictatorship, including China's growing ambition and Russia's resolve to damage and disrupt democracy. We face challenges Including pandemics, climate crisis and nuclear proliferation. "

Trump had raised tariffs during his tenure, causing the US to face resentment from Asian and European leaders and damage to the global alliance. Trump had done little to push back authoritarianism in some countries. After the violence on Capitol Hill on 6 January, global leaders, including allies and rivals, expressed doubts about the health of American democracy. 

Trump has been accused of instigating his supporters for the violence on Capitol Hill, and Biden's speech on Thursday was an attempt to create a ruckus to dispel those doubts and convince Americans of their country's values.
