If you do the first year of junior high school, don't blame me for doing the fifteenth.
On Wednesday, U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken will begin his visit to China.
A media statement issued by the U.S. State Department on April 20 outlined Blinken's main mission for the trip.
U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken will visit the People's Republic of China from April 24 to 26. The secretary will meet with senior Chinese officials in Shanghai and Beijing to discuss a range of bilateral, regional, and global issues, including the Middle East crisis, the Russia-Ukraine war, cross-strait issues, and the South China Sea. The Secretary will also discuss what is being done to fulfill the commitments made by the two heads of state at the Woodside Summit last November to resume counterdrug cooperation, military-to-military exchanges, artificial intelligence, and strengthen people-to-people ties, and will reaffirm the importance of the United States and the People's Republic of China managing competition responsibly, even in areas where our two countries disagree.
Blinken is not a good person. One of the most important tasks of his trip is to "convict" and create public opinion for the so-called Chinese aid to Russia.
The effect he wants to achieve can be referred to Yellen's hype about the so-called "overcapacity" issue during her visit to China. Although it is completely illusory, the ability of US politicians to cooperate with the media to build momentum is very worthy of vigilance.
Like the problem of overcapacity, the so-called Chinese military aid to Russia is also a crime that the United States wants to add.
During the recent G7 foreign ministers' meeting in Italy, Blinken began to build momentum on the issue of so-called military aid.
"Speaking about the defense industrial base of Russia, the main contributor at the moment is China. We've seen China share machine tools, semiconductors, and other dual-use products that have helped Russia rebuild its defense industrial base, which has been severely weakened by sanctions and export controls. ”
What is this? This is a sin of desire, a kind of nonsense.
According to Blinken's standard, it is better for China not to sell even a single screw to Russia, because this is also an important dual-use product that can be used to rebuild Russia's defense industry.
The US "Politico" website further confirms the US ability to fabricate facts.
According to the website, there have long been reports that China is exporting dual-use technologies such as vehicle parts and bulletproof vests to Russia.
The website quoted a U.S. Department of Defense official as commenting that China's support means that Moscow "has largely rebuilt its defense industrial base, which not only has an impact on the battlefield in Ukraine, but also what we believe poses a greater threat to broader European security." ”
A briefing by U.S. officials this month also said China had sent parts and microchips to Russia for the production of drones, cruise missiles and armored vehicles.
From all these accusations, what we see is that China only exports certain spare parts to Russia, and it does not matter what these parts are, in short, the Americans insist that these spare parts can also be used for Russian military purposes. There's nothing you can do. Because the production of missiles and armored vehicles will require the use of screws.
So even if China exports doves of peace to Russia, the Americans can say that Russia uses doves of peace for military reconnaissance. The crime is not because of the dove of peace, but because of China. In the eyes of the United States, China is the original sin.
Most laughablely, Blinken also alleges that "now, if China, on the one hand, claims to want to maintain good relations with Europe and other countries, on the other hand, it cannot contribute to the greatest threat to European security since the end of the Cold War." ”
Is this a familiar recipe, a familiar taste?
Think about how the United States claims to maintain good relations with China on the one hand on the issue of relations with China, but on the other hand, it repeatedly plays to the death and constantly steps on China's red line on issues involving China's core interests and security threats.
At this time, the United States knows that this kind of impotence and disobedience makes it heartbroken?
On the one hand, the United States claims that it wants to compete with China, and on the other hand, it is desperately trying to suppress China in science and technology; on the one hand, it claims that it is not targeting China, and on the other hand, it is constantly pulling together and forming exclusive cliques to disrupt the regional situation.
The United States can even do such a split personality thing like a fish in water, so why should China not maintain normal economic and trade exchanges and cooperation with Russia?
In particular, the cooperation between China and Russia is completely different from the nature of the hegemonic competition of the United States against China.
Foreign Ministry spokesman Lin Jian noted:
"China is not a party or a participant in the Ukraine crisis, and we have always adhered to an objective and fair position, actively promoted peace talks, and never added fuel to the fire or seized the opportunity to make profits. China and Russia have the right to carry out normal economic and trade cooperation, and such cooperation should not be interfered with or restricted. ”
Lin Jian also said, "In fact, the United States, Europe and some other countries are still trading with Russia. ”
This is a real slap in the face of the United States.
If it is said that the goods exported by China to Russia can be used for both military and civilian purposes, the goods sold by the United States to Russia cannot be used for both military and civilian purposes? This is the naked double standard of the United States.
How China responded
First, China and Russia are friends, and China and the United States are now competitors and business partners, which is just an ordinary relationship, and if you and the United States do not have a heart-to-heart relationship with me, of course we do not have to pay our hearts and lungs to be good to you, let alone strategically cooperate with the United States to cater to the United States.
Second, China and the United States have different views and understandings of the nature and causes of the Russia-Ukraine conflict. China views the conflict in the light of the historical context of the conflict and the legitimate security concerns of all parties, rather than blindly taking the rights and claims of one party as the whole issue.
Third, the United States plays a different game against China, and China can theoretically deal with it in the same way. Again, if you are the first year of junior high school, don't blame others for doing fifteen. When you come out to mix, you always have to pay it back.
Fourth, we are now able to deal with this set of the United States with ease. No matter what cards the United States plays and how it plays, our coping strategy is the same: you talk about yours, and I do mine. If you want to talk, we will accompany you, clarify our position and principles, and not give an inch. After talking, what to do, don't have any hope for you.
Finally, Blinken's visit to China is still a big gift. Huawei's newly released Pura mobile phone is quite good as a gift to Blinken, letting Blinken know that all the bitter fruits brewed for China are most likely to be eaten by the United States itself in the end.
