Behind the twenty years of waiting, the opening ceremony of a grand Asian Games, and an unprecedented invitation, lies the intricacies of international politics. Recently, China specially invited Syrian President Bashar al-Assad and his wife to visit China, once again pushing the Middle Eastern country into the international spotlight. However, this decision has attracted the anger of the West, and foreign media have accused China of violating US law, and American F35 fighter jets have even flown over the Syrian capital.
China's friendly relations with Syria were not established overnight. Over the years, the two countries have maintained close diplomatic ties, which are based on mutual respect for national sovereignty and non-interference principles. However, the move to invite Syrian President Bashar al-Assad to visit is clearly more than a diplomatic courtesy.
China sends a strong message to the international community: China will not be swayed by the so-called "bill" promulgated by the United States. In 2019, the United States passed the Caesar Act, which imposed comprehensive sanctions on the Syrian government and countries that support it. This bill prohibits any form of military and economic cooperation with the Syrian government in order to force the international community to cut ties with Syria.
However, the position of Western countries on the Syrian issue is deeply different from China's. The United States and its allies have long insisted that the Syrian government has brutally cracked down on anti-government protests, resulting in thousands of civilian casualties. Therefore, they took a tough stance against the Syrian government, imposing a series of sanctions. Western media are unhappy with China's invitation to the Syrian president, even accusing it of violating U.S. law.
In international relations, this incident provoked an interesting contest. China has made it clear that it will not be swayed by external pressure and will continue to develop friendly relations with Syria. However, some Western countries have threatened that countries that continue to cooperate with Syria may face "international" isolation and sanctions. This distorted phenomenon of international politics has led people to think about what is justice and what is the right to interfere in the internal affairs of other countries?
The day after President Bashar al-Assad's arrival in China, the United States flexed its military might, sending F35 fighter jets and F16 fighter jets over the airspace of the Syrian capital, Damascus. This action is regarded as a direct violation of Syria's sovereignty and has aroused widespread concern and concern in the international community.
This military demonstration is not only a response to China's invitation to the Syrian president, but also a manifestation of the United States defending its position on the international stage. However, it also raises a series of questions: Should the United States intervene in the internal affairs of other countries? Should the international community adopt a confrontational approach to military issues rather than resolve disputes through dialogue and diplomatic channels?
China's invitation to the Syrian President to visit China is not only a diplomatic move, but also a challenge to international law and the principles of international relations. The positions of Western countries and China on the Syrian issue are obviously different, but the use of extreme methods such as military confrontation and sanctions, and even the blatant violation of the territorial sovereignty of other countries, is really disdainful!
