Afghanistan is accelerating its pivot to the East? Isn't that where the former Soviet Union and the Americans killed for decades? Is this a wedding dress for someone else?
In recent days, U.S. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen has come to China again, and before leaving, they have used the same tricks again. Americans still don't understand why the world has become less and less needed for the United States.
The usual trick used by the Americans is to create turmoil and then coerce and induce. Now, they don't even have any inducements for us, only coercion, because the benefits that the Americans can give us are almost gone.
Some people say that the Americans are killing all the way, and we are the Belt and Road, which is very vividly illustrated that the world is proving that they no longer need the United States.
Let's tell a story today to illustrate that the hegemonic thinking and way of doing things of the Americans have fallen behind the times, and then use this line of thinking to look back and see what kind of results Yellen will get from this visit to China.
In July 2023, a major event that shook the world occurred in Afghanistan, and the Sino-Arab joint venture oil field began to be put into production. Earlier, Atta's interim government signed a 25-year oil exploration contract with China with a total investment of more than $12 billion.
The Americans have been fighting and killing in Afghanistan for 20 years, trying to wedge another nail in the Middle East and at the same time stab Iran in the back.
In the end, of course, it's all about oil. What did they end up doing?
Nothing, only the scarred mountains and rivers were left for the Afghans.
The United States has been killing Afghanistan for 20 years, but China finally "picked up" an oil field.
Back then, they also went under the slogan of liberating the Afghan people and making that country democratic, prosperous and strong, so why couldn't they conquer such a poor small place?
In today's world, there are so many things that Americans can't figure out.
Vietnam, which the Americans have killed for more than 10 years, has now become China's largest trading partner in the 10 ASEAN countries, and the largest processing and manufacturing and entrepot trade base.
North Korea, which the Americans killed for several years, has now become one of our most important partners.
Russia, which is dominated by the Americans and is driving the Ukrainians to fight with guns, exceeded $240 billion in trade with us last year.
The Americans sanctioned Iran for decades, and last year, with our help, completed the great reconciliation of the Middle East of the century.
What does this mean? It shows that mankind is evolving into a more advanced civilization and is trying to get rid of the barbaric and backward way of getting along.
Capitalism has been glorious for 500 years, and the world has evolved from the earliest era of murder and land grabbing, supplemented by military conquest and economic plunder, to the era of capital colonization, supplemented by military intimidation.
Nowadays, the world can no longer bear the colonization of capital, and is evolving to a higher level of equality, mutual benefit and common development.
Americans can't understand why the plundering of capital is so bad that military intimidation doesn't work? This is the root cause.
What China is doing is exactly the opposite of what the Americans are doing: we do not export war, but send peace and development.
China is not only cooperating in the extraction of oil in Afghanistan, but also connecting the railway there to make it part of the Eurasian land bridge, giving the country a real path to development.
For a long time now, we have also been very serious about helping the Afghan people in their construction.
For example, China Railway 14th Bureau Group is one of the earliest companies to enter the Afghan market and has done a lot of great things.
After 20 years of deep cultivation, they have successfully completed a number of influential engineering projects, such as the Jalalabad Highway Rehabilitation Project in Afghanistan and the New Main Building Project of the Hospital of the Republic of Afghanistan.
The Chinese people are always kind, and with goodwill from the bottom of their hearts, they help fraternal countries and peoples overseas.
Let's go back and see what kind of outcome Yellen's visit to China will be.
Judging from her words and deeds in intimidating us in the United States before her departure, they are still the same, constantly stirring things up around us with one hand, creating panic and pressure, sending people to coax us to say that they do not want to decouple, and constantly increasing sanctions and even blockades on the other.
The Americans coerce and induce, but they mistakenly regard the reduction of sanctions and damage against us as "benefit" and deceive us.
This kind of barbaric and backward routine is no longer suitable for the new trend and new era of mankind, to put it bluntly, it is the Americans OUT!
However, there are always people who believe that a hypocritical veteran politician like Yellen is right, and she is a politician, not an economic expert.
Even if Yellen came with good intentions this time, she alone is powerless to change the hegemonic way of thinking and acting in the United States.
Therefore, we cannot rule out that Yellen's trip can achieve some small results, but it will not change the general trend between China and the United States, which we must always be sober and see clearly.
