The United States is doing two bad things, which are very bad for China!
Has the United States given up promoting a "new Cold War"? The Biden administration has been fooling China by saying that it does not seek to contain China and has no intention of a "new Cold War." It calls Beijing at every turn to explain and sends leaders to visit China from time to time to explain it. No, as soon as U.S. Treasury Secretary Yellen left, Blinken came again. Yellen came to try to cheat China out of money to buy US Treasury bonds, but she didn't succeed, and Blinken came to fool China into believing that the United States does not seek to contain China.
However, at a time when senior U.S. officials are visiting China one after another, the Biden administration is doing two things that are extremely harmful to China, and it will be a nightmare for China if China does not fight back and contain the United States. Please listen to these two things and judge whether they are extremely bad and evil!
First things first: the deployment of medium-range missiles in the Philippines
Can you imagine? The United States has actually deployed a "medium-range strike capability" in the northern part of Luzon in the Philippines and very close to Taiwan Province on the mainland. Luzon Island is less than 400 kilometers away from Taiwan Province on the mainland, and it is not as far as Zhengzhou to Shijiazhuang, which can be described as a step away. The medium-range missiles deployed by the United States are modified versions of the "Typhon" weapon system, which are mainly used to launch Tomahawk cruise missiles, as well as the RIM-174 "Standard" SM-6 ballistic missile, which is compatible with anti-surface targets, which can hit both sea and land targets, and can also carry thermonuclear warheads with low TNT yield.
According to information disclosed by the United States and the Philippines, this deployment is still in the nature of participating in military exercises for the time being, but it is difficult to say whether they will be evacuated after the actual military exercises. Regarding this deployment, the US military said that it was a major event of "milestone significance". Is an exercise a major event of "milestone significance"? What the US military said was, of course, not just an exercise, but its success in bringing and deploying medium-range missiles to the Philippines, and this was a major breakthrough, and this breakthrough was political in nature, which meant that the United States had greatly strengthened its political and military control over the Philippines.
In terms of power, frankly, Zhan Hao does not think that this missile is very advanced, nor is it that he can hit China's warships and homeland, because its missiles are not advanced enough, so the threat to China is manageable for the time being. However, the great strategic significance of this matter lies in the fact that he has deployed intermediate-range missiles in the Philippines, and the United States will not have more than this relatively less advanced medium-range missile in the future. More importantly, once a breakthrough is made at this level, he can quickly move forward with two things in the future: first, he is more likely to deploy more advanced intermediate-range missiles and even nuclear weapons in the Philippines, which would greatly threaten China's security and influence in the Asia-Pacific region, and second, he may deploy intermediate-range missiles and nuclear weapons in Japan, South Korea, and even Taiwan Province of China.
So, if we look at this military deployment, is it the deployment of intermediate-range missiles, even nuclear weapons, and anti-missile systems around China that the United States has been pushing all along? Is all this preparing for militarily containing China and ultimately promoting a new Cold War?
The essence of all this is a very insidious premeditation, because once medium-range missiles and nuclear weapons are deployed in the Philippines, Japan, and South Korea, the United States can pull NATO to the Asia-Pacific region at the same time, and then go all out to deal with China, and then the decisive battle between China and the United States will be in the Taiwan Strait, and China will have the risk of facing the entire NATO headed by the United States alone. With regard to the deployment of medium-range missiles by the United States, we cannot ignore it and cannot fail to take countermeasures, because it is too dangerous.
The second thing: large-scale sanctions against Chinese banks are being prepared in an attempt to kick China out of the global financial system
At the regular press conference of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs on April 23, a Reuters reporter asked: According to the Wall Street Journal, the United States is drafting draft sanctions that threaten to remove some Chinese banks from the global financial system. U.S. officials said they hoped the measure would stop China from providing commercial support to Russian military production. At the same time, the head of the Department of American and International Affairs of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs called on the US side to immediately stop imposing unilateral sanctions on Chinese companies and individuals, saying that the Ukraine issue is not an issue between China and the United States. What is the Foreign Ministry's response to the Wall Street Journal's report, and what countermeasures will China take if the sanctions against banks are enforced?
The Reuters question and the appeal of the head of the Department of American and International Affairs of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs show that the draft that the US is drafting sanctions against Chinese banks and trying to remove China from the global financial system is not groundless. Because the U.S. has intrinsically motivated reasons, and the rhetoric of U.S. officials is a good explanation of the logic of the draft, which is to prevent China from providing commercial support to Russian military producers. In fact, not only Russia?
Why did such a draft sanction suddenly come out recently? I had never heard of it before. In fact, the reason is very simple, because the United States has already done this to Russia, and the United States has always wanted to do the same to China, but he does not have the ability, so he does not dare to do it. However, China's recent stance in the Middle East has made the United States and Israel very embarrassed, and Israel will inevitably ask the American Jewish consortium to push for this draft, and this draft is deliberately revealed to China and asked questions at the press conference, which is actually threatening China, and if China complies, sanctions can be temporarily shelved. To put it bluntly, the United States wants to scare China and force China to make concessions.
But, frankly speaking, China was terrified! Didn't the United States think that at the beginning of the Korean War, China did not dare to send troops? The Soviet Union did not dare to send troops, so how could the newly established New China confront the United Nations forces led by the United States? In the end, the United States was wrong, and China used millet and rifles to beat the US troops all over the ground and fled in confusion. Now, the United States wants to scare China, so how can it succeed?
Regarding the US threat, Foreign Ministry spokesman Wang Wenbin said: When I answered a question from a reporter from Beijing Youth Daily just now, I actually answered your question. I would like to stress once again that we firmly oppose the hypocrisy of the US side to add fuel to the fire while shifting the blame to China. China's right to conduct normal economic and trade exchanges with other countries, including Russia, is inviolable, and we will firmly defend our legitimate rights and interests.
What does that mean? That is, if you want to make trouble, China will accompany you to the end! You, the United States, have pulled all its Western allies and imposed more than 10,000 sanctions on Russia, what is wrong with Russia? Isn't it not at all bad? Is China's economic strength worse than that of the United States? What if China just doesn't use your payment system? The cross-border payment system of Chinese and RMB has taken shape, and the result of the real sanctions imposed by the United States on Chinese banks is to force more countries to settle directly with China's local currency, and finally settle in RMB, and the world will abandon the dollar as a payment currency and reserve currency faster. The United States should not forget that the reason why the dollar can still thrive in the world is because it is supported by Chinese manufacturing. Let me ask you, if there is no Chinese dollar to support you, what can you buy with dollars? When China only accepts the renminbi, the damage to China and the United States is only half a pound and eight taels. Of course, the harm to other countries is even greater. But in the long run, it's not a bad thing for China. Therefore, China is not afraid of US sanctions at all, and the United States should not want to threaten China. Wang Wenbin's short response is not even as long as the Reuters question, that is, China is not afraid of you at all, and the United States sanctions will really start if you have a kind!
China should fully understand the strategic intention of the United States to accelerate the promotion of the "new Cold War"!
The United States now does not admit that it wants to promote a "new Cold War", and diplomatically it is also "very friendly" to China, senior officials continue to visit China, and Biden calls at every turn to "shh As far as China is concerned, of course, we are also fighting for time and space in communicating with the United States, because compared with the United States, time is on China's side, and as long as China can gain more time, then space will also be on China's side. However, we must also realize that the bottom line of our struggle for time and space is not to allow the United States to succeed on major issues. For example, if the United States wants to impose sanctions on China's commercial banks, China must not be at its mercy.
In Zhan Hao's view, China does not necessarily have to play the same tricks as the United States to deal with the United States, and China often needs to find its own way to counter the United States, and needs to target the soft underbelly of the United States, and at the same time have to fight-for-tat in some aspects.
For example, in the case of the deployment of medium-range missiles, China must not only carry out targeted military deployments, but also formulate and publish the rules for missile targeting and some basic rules for engagement, and tell neighboring countries that if you and the United States target China, the result will be that China will be forced to aim missiles at you, and at the same time, China will have the right to carry out preemptive strikes once the relevant countries do something harmful to China. If you don't be tough, others will think that we are weak, and they will do things to bully China, and when we do it, we will take countermeasures, and the effect will be greatly reduced.
In fact, the most fundamental military countermeasure against the United States is not-for-tat, but a unique way. What is the biggest weakness of the United States? China has military equipment and technology, and wouldn't it be nice to have an "oil-for-fireworks" activity with relevant countries? If you are not benevolent, I will be unjust. Aren't you going to deploy medium-range missiles in the Philippines? Then let your weak underbelly blossom everywhere! As far as Iran is concerned, if you support it, he will dare to do it, and his younger brother will dare to go to the opponent's grandmother's house!
As for financial sanctions, China doesn't have to be afraid at all, if you do that, we can target de-dollarization, negotiate with relevant countries for exports, and gradually switch to RMB settlement. As long as the settlement is in RMB, we will provide RMB loans. If you want to make trouble, of course I can make it bigger!
Frankly speaking, the United States is now a paper tiger! Not to mention making trouble with China, do you have the ability to take down the Houthis? Do you have the ability to dare to attack Iran? If you can't do all this, you want to use this pediatric method to suppress China? Naïve and naïve! To deal with the United States, you must have a soft side, a steel side, and a step-by-step side!
