In a few days, it will be the college entrance examination for our senior students, here I wish all candidates in advance a stable performance and a gold list title. Recently, China and the United States have also ushered in a big test, that is, the high-profile Shangri-La Dialogue.
Although this is a dialogue, it is a dialogue platform on a global scale. But for China, this is also a "battlefield". Against the background of today's fierce and open game between China and the United States, China is fighting back against the battlefield of public opinion of the United States, and it is also a diplomatic battlefield for China and the United States to confront each other.
As the mainland's new defense minister this year, General Li Shangfu attended the dialogue for the first time, and as a Chinese general included in the US government's sanctions list, it was itself a-for-tat confrontation with US hegemonism. As China has made clear before, the Chinese and American defense ministers did not have any form of separate meeting at this dialogue.
In the face of China's tough diplomatic attitude, the United States has also begun to break the can, changing its previous pleasant and pleasant face. U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken claimed that China's refusal to meet was an unfortunate event, and that China's lack of communication could lead to a rapid spiral out of control. It sounds like the United States has become angry after being rejected by China, and Blinken's words reveal a threat to China.
Subsequently, at the incense meeting, the United States also launched a diplomatic offensive against China from many directions in accordance with past practice, attracted the strength of various countries, and took the opportunity of the dialogue meeting to win over and consolidate its own small groups towards China. According to media reports, during the meeting with the United States, the United States, Japan, South Korea, the United States, Japan, and Australia held trilateral talks one after another, as well as multilateral defense ministers' talks between the United States, Japan, Australia and the Philippines.
It is worth mentioning that the United States is engaged in containment diplomacy against China in Shangri-La. On the other hand, the United States, Japan and the Philippines are also simultaneously conducting joint military exercises in the South China Sea. It is clear that the United States has just established a US-Philippine military alliance, and is now accelerating the expansion of the alliance to form a complete encirclement of China's southeast coast.
As I said at the beginning, this incense meeting is a diplomatic battlefield between China and the United States. The response of mainland defense minister General Li Shangfu is eight words: "You hit yours, I hit mine." Although refusing to meet with the U.S. defense minister, General Lee Sheung Fock met bilaterally with Singaporean Foreign Minister Ng Eng Hen and established a direct and secure telephone line between China and Singapore.
During the talks, General Li Shangfu also stressed the key "Taiwan Strait issue" between China and the United States. This is also a response to the crazy provocations of the United States in the Taiwan Strait in recent times.
General Li stressed three points: The mainland will do its utmost to strive for peaceful reunification of the two sides of the strait. However, the mainland will never allow the Tsai Ing-wen authorities to "seek independence by coercing foreigners" and "relying on the United States to seek independence"! We will never allow external forces, such as the United States and other Western groups against China, to attempt to "contain China with Taiwan"! Moreover, China will never promise that it will not take military measures to resolve the Taiwan Strait issue and reserve the right to regain Taiwan Island by all means of force!
It is clear that what is called you hitting yours and I hitting mine? That is, no matter what small group the United States is engaged in against China, it does not matter whether it is to win over Japan and South Korea, to drag Australia, or to call the Philippines. China is only grasping one issue, and it is only concerned about one issue, that is, cross-strait reunification!
This is the core issue of the Asia-Pacific situation and Sino-US relations, China must complete the battle and solve the "Taiwan Strait issue", Japan, South Korea, the Philippines and the like are not afraid, the US camp against China is not afraid, and the island chain blockade plan planned by the United States for many years will also be solved by China.
It can be said that at this Shangri-La Dialogue, China's early handover of the papers caught the United States by surprise. And China still handed in a full score answer sheet, which caught the United States off guard. As the saying goes, one force will fall ten times, and in the face of China's determination to complete the great cause of reunification, no amount of intrigue and trickery by the United States will be in vain!
