In order to contain China, the United States has extended its tentacles to this country, but this time it will be closed
In order to squeeze out China, the United States has set its sights on this country, who is it? Why focus on it? And can the goals of the United States really be achieved? Let me take you through it briefly.
The United States, frightened by China's growing global influence, thinks all day long about how to trip up China, and sees China's increasing influence in the Middle East, and even promotes the Shai-Iran reconciliation. It forced the head of Japan and South Korea, vainly trying to show a "Japan-South Korea reconciliation" at China's doorstep to show muscles to China, but the result made Japan and South Korea unwilling, unwilling, completely did not reach the level and atmosphere of China's promotion of Shayi reconciliation, this is not, in order to suppress China's influence in the Middle East, the United States this time thought of pulling Saudi Arabia together, saying what mutual defense treaty to sign, why Saudi Arabia?
Because Saudi Arabia can be said to be the world's most important oil producer, has a huge influence on the global economy, the dollar is tied to oil to a certain extent, oil is an important basis for dollar hegemony, the United States can not lose such a core ally as Saudi Arabia, and the signing of a defense agreement with Saudi Arabia will help ease Arab-Israeli tensions, which is also in line with the strategic interests of the United States in the Middle East, on the other hand, Saudi Arabia, in defense does need American-style weapons, especially when the Houthis increasingly threaten Saudi Arabia's national security. Since the United States and Saudi Arabia have their own needs, it is not difficult to understand that the United States wants to use the hands of Saudi Arabia to contain China at this time.
But can this careful thinking of the United States not be seen? I don't think the Saudi leadership can even see this little nine-nine, so can Saudi Arabia automatically cooperate with the United States? In fact, even the Americans themselves may not believe it, and some lawmakers even say that Saudi Arabia cannot be trusted, they will not serve the interests of the United States, and even Secretary of State Blinken himself has no illusions. Indeed, eggs should not be in one basket, this applies not only to business, but also to politics, imagine if the United States were to dominate the Middle East, would that be good for Saudi Arabia? Is there still a bargaining capital? Of course not, and China is not seeking regional hegemony like the United States, China is developing relations with countries on the basis of mutual benefit and win-win, and the relationship with Saudi Arabia is no exception, Saudi Arabia also knows that there is no "Chinese hegemony" in the world, so "drive away good guests and usher in the jackal", Saudi Arabia may not be able to do it, no wonder Blinken has no illusions.
