Recently, the West's crackdown on China's western region has undoubtedly attracted the attention of the general public. Western countries pay particular attention to Tibet and Xinjiang as the main targets for attacking China. So why did they choose to start from the west?
It may be more convenient to do some transactions in the western region than in the eastern region. First, because of the diversity of its ethnic and religious issues, it gives opportunities for external forces to exploit. In addition, the borders of the two autonomous regions are vast, providing ample space for infiltration.
The western part of the mainland is rich in energy resources, especially in the highlands of Guizhou and Yunnan, where large and small rivers are densely packed, and there is great potential for hydropower development. At the same time, we cannot ignore the existence of a large amount of coal resources in the western region, and once these coals are converted into electricity, they will become a powerful support for the state to build a west-to-east power transmission project.
If we lose support for the western region, we may feel the impact of China's industrialization process deeply. Behind the abundant mineral and energy resources of the mainland are equally vibrant natural and agricultural resources. The fertile Guanzhong Plain and the Sichuan Basin are undoubtedly one of China's most important grain-producing regions. In addition, the western region is also an excellent growing place for medicinal plants, such as Ningxia wolfberry and Tibetan cordyceps.
From a macro geopolitical perspective, the importance of the western region is becoming increasingly prominent. As a key node of the ancient Silk Road, Xinjiang can be called an indispensable part of the "Belt and Road". Without this region, China's strategic development would lose a critical window and close ties to Eurasia, and it would be forced to focus on sea lanes, but it would face the risk of strong Western control. Under such circumstances, it may be difficult for China's economy to take off smoothly.
One expert said: "The West is putting pressure on northwest China because they don't want to see a strong and united China. However, the mainland has successfully resisted the erosion of foreign forces through various methods, and has already achieved initial results. ”
According to statistics, the western part of the mainland has abundant mineral and energy reserves, and more importantly, the mountainous areas also have abundant natural and agricultural and animal husbandry resources, which play a solid role in the important economic development of the mainland.
Experts in the field of international relations said: "The Western countries are suppressing China's western region mainly for geopolitical and economic reasons, and they hope to dismantle China's power in this way and consolidate their leadership in global affairs." ”
The suppression and influence of Western society in western China has aroused strong repercussions in China. Against this backdrop, the Chinese government has launched corresponding countermeasures to maintain peace and stability in the western region and prevent interference by the West. The reason for the West's pressure and sanctions on China is because of its political and economic interests, but China has proven safeguards against these infiltrations, and with good results. Maintaining the stability and development of the western region is of great significance to the mainland's industrialization process. In order to defend the interests of the motherland and maintain the prosperity and tranquility of the western region, all of us need to work together.
