In the past year, the United States has begun to provoke at the same time in both Europe and the Asia-Pacific region, and the United States has targeted the two major powers of China and Russia at the same time. In the direction of Europe, the United States desperately supplied weapons to Ukraine, and co-opted European countries, encouraging Ukraine to try to provoke a border war and let Russia fall into the trap of confrontation with Europe. In Asia, the United States cannot win over countries like Ukraine, and can only provoke the Taiwan Strait and try to provoke regional military conflicts, thus disrupting China's economic rise.
The United States wants to open its bow in two directions at the same time, attack China and Russia at the same time, and let China and Russia fall into the dilemma designed by the United States. Obviously, China and Russia cannot sit still and will inevitably come up with the toughest countermeasures against the United States at the appropriate time, and today we have seen China and Russia countering the United States in two directions at the same time. Just after hearing about Russia and Belarus to hold military exercises, followed by China, Russia and Iran to conduct joint military exercises at sea. This is obviously the beginning of a military counterattack between China and Russia, so that the United States can see whether it can fight on two fronts, the two major powers of China and Russia.
The Russian Pacific Fleet Information Service said on Tuesday (18th) that Russia, Iran and China will hold joint maritime exercises. The three countries will hold the CHIRU Joint Naval Exercise in the Persian Gulf from late 2021 to early 2022, the main task of which is to conduct operations to ensure international shipping safety and combat 3 pirates. It is worth noting that on the 17th, a fleet of the Pacific Fleet was moored at the docks of the Iranian port of Chabahar. The 40th escort formation of the Chinese Navy set sail on the 15th and rushed to the Gulf of Aden and Somali waters. The escort formation consisted of the guided-missile destroyer Hohhot, the guided-missile frigate Yueyang, and the comprehensive supply ship Luomahu, with a total of more than 700 officers and men.
And also on the 18th, the Belarusian Ministry of Defense released a message that the Russian-Belarusian joint military exercise "Alliance Determination -2022" will be held from February 10 to 20. Pavel Muravíko, deputy chief of the general staff of the Belarusian Armed Forces, said earlier that the Belarusian side would work with the Russian side to conduct a surprise inspection of the response forces of the Russian-Belarusian union countries, and would hold the "Alliance Determination-2022" joint military exercise in the final stage of the surprise inspection. Obviously, the joint Russian-Belarusian military exercise can easily be understood as an aggressive counterattack against NATO, after all, the United States is trying to instigate Ukraine to provoke war.
In addition to the military field, China and Russia have begun to counterattack, and in the economic field, China and Russia are also breaking the blockade and encirclement between the United States and Europe. The latest news is that the Russian Kremlin Information Bureau released news on the 18th that Russian President Putin and Iranian President Ibrahim Lehi plan to discuss the implementation of joint economic projects and international issues during the talks on January 19. "It is planned to discuss all issues of bilateral cooperation, including the implementation of joint projects in the economic and trade fields, as well as current international and regional issues," the message said. In addition, attention has been given to the implementation of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action".
This also means that the Iranian president's visit to Russia is not only to negotiate the purchase of Russian military equipment, but also to strengthen the implementation of economic cooperation between the two countries. After all, russia is passive in the United States and Europe's attempt to block energy cooperation with Russia, then Russia will inevitably have to find a new economic breakthrough point, and obviously Iran's Middle East direction is also a good choice. At the same time, the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action is the "Iranian nuclear agreement", and Russia also hopes to resolve this outstanding issue as soon as possible so that Iran has a normal development track.
Prior to this, Chinese State Councilor and Foreign Minister Wang Yi held talks with visiting Iranian Foreign Minister Abdullahyan in Wuxi, Jiangsu Province, on the 14th, and the two sides jointly announced that the 25-year comprehensive cooperation agreement between China and Iran was launched. China and Iran have reached cooperation, and China will invest $400 billion in Iran within 25 years to help Iran tide over difficulties under US sanctions. China's investment in Iran covers economic, strategic, security and other fields, while Iran provides China with a stable oil supply. It can be said that the comprehensive cooperation between China and Iran will open up the focus of China's Belt and Road construction in the Middle East, and will further promote the construction of a free trade area between China and the Middle East.
It can be said that China and Russia have shown their swords to the United States in the two major military and economic fields, breaking the strategy of containment and containment that the United States is trying to carry out. The simultaneous strengthening of military and economic ties with Iran between China and Russia is to increase their influence in the Middle East, where the United States has relatively weak control capabilities. In particular, on the 15th, Wang Yi received the visit of the foreign ministers of Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Turkey and Iran and the secretary-general of the GCC to China, and China will promote the comprehensive economic development of the Middle East countries. Through the cooperation of technology and funds, we will strengthen the infrastructure construction of Middle Eastern countries, so as to help Middle Eastern countries establish new economic growth points and break the industrial chain of the United States.
The United States obviously does not want to admit the decline of strength, and insists on confronting the two major powers of China and Russia at the same time. This time, it is good that China and Russia have begun to counterattack in the two major military and economic fields, and the military exercises have already made their attitude clear, but the counterattack in the economic field is going to give the United States a headache. After all, if the United States wants to engage in confrontation, it must come up with more funds to do the corresponding economic development strategy, and I really don't know how to solve the $29 trillion debt of the United States? Moreover, China and Russia are studying a new monetary settlement system, and the dollar hegemony will not run wild for long! (The picture in this article comes from the network)
