Against the backdrop of the increasingly "blocization" of the great power game, according to a recent report by Xinhua News Agency, the SCO held a meeting of defense ministers of its member states in Astana, the capital of Kazakhstan. Dong Jun said that "in today's world, where changes in a century are accelerating" and "global governance is unstable and disorderly", the SCO needs to be a "demonstrator of solidarity and cooperation", "a promoter of dialogue promotion" and "a guardian of common security", and that all member states should adhere to "solidarity and mutual trust, share security and danger, and gather common ground to overcome differences" to "safeguard common interests" and "safeguard regional and world peace". #MCN首发激励计划#
In order to strengthen communication and cooperation among member states, in addition to meeting with Kazakh President Tokayev, Dong Jun successively held "talks" with the defense ministers of Pakistan, Iran, and Russia, and also "exchanged views" with the defense ministers of Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, and Tajikistan on issues of common concern. You know, there are only 9 official members of the SCO, and it can be seen from the above that in addition to India, Dong Jun has seen 7 SCO defense ministers (presidents) everywhere, so why does China want to "put India aside"?
In fact, the reason is very simple: in order to please the United States and obtain technology and capital from the West, India has recently made frequent moves against China, which has seriously affected Sino-Indian relations and undermined the unity within the SCO. At the end of March, Indian Foreign Minister S Jaishankar made a big deal of nonsense, falsely claiming that southern Tibet is a "natural part of India" and that China's name change "has no meaning"; India's defense minister also jumped out and accused China's sovereignty claim over southern Tibet as "absurd," and even the United States recognized it as Indian territory; India even got involved in the Taiwan issue and openly interviewed Taiwan's "foreign minister," which was broadcast throughout India.
Under such circumstances, it will be very difficult for China to have a "face-to-face" meeting with India, so what can we talk about? Could it be that there will be a "big quarrel" at the SCO meeting, or will it be a "chicken-and-duck talk"? As India actively betrays China's interests and flatters the West, any initiative by China to show goodwill will only make New Delhi "worse." Therefore, during Defense Minister Dong Jun's visit to Kazakhstan to attend the meeting of the defense ministers of the SCO member states, he met with the defense ministers of all the member states, including the Belarusian defense minister, but ignored the Indian defense minister.
Some people may say that since the contradictions between China and India are so deep that they simply "can't urinate in a pot," why do they still want to absorb India? This is why we have to talk about Russia, India's "introducer to join the party." At the beginning, China did not intend to absorb India, but only planned to develop Pakistan to become a member of the SCO, but Russia strongly pushed India, and there is a situation that Pakistan and India must also join. Russia is the "original shareholder" of the SCO, and China is not easy to oppose if it insists on it, so India joins the SCO together with Pakistan.
Russia's move, to put it bluntly, is still worried that China's "right to speak" in the SCO is too heavy, after all, after Pakistan and Railway join the SCO, it will definitely favor China, so it will draw India in to "balance" Pakistan, and India has close relations with Russia and is "pro-Russian". As a result, the "destabilization" factor within the SCO has been planted, not only India and Pakistan have contradictions, but conflicts have broken out in Kashmir from time to time, and China and India have also been constantly frictional, and even caused serious confrontation, so that the United States and NATO "see jokes".
At the SCO Defense Ministers' Meeting, Dong Jun's speech was very clear, that is, all member states should "unite and trust each other, share security and danger, and gather common ground to overcome differences", but India may not listen to it, and China can only "beat the drum and hammer". According to a report by the Observer Network on April 27, the launching ceremony of the "Hanguo" conventionally powered submarine built by China for Pakistan was held at the Shuangliu base of Wuchang Shipbuilding Heavy Industry, and the chief of staff of the Pakistani Railway Navy, Admiral Navid Ashraf, attended the launching ceremony, he said that the "Hanguo" class submarine "adds a new dimension to the long-tested friendship between China and Pakistan."
It is reported that in July 2015, China and Pakistan reached an arms sales agreement on 8 S20P submarines, and the "Hanguo" is still only the first boat, and 7 more will be delivered to Pakistan in the future, of which 4 will be built in Pakistan. In addition, China has also sold 4 054AP frigates, 20 J-10C fighters, 240 Thunderbolt-15E long-range air-to-air missiles to Pakistan Railway, and may also sell J-31 fighters to Pakistan Railway in the future. India frequently challenges China's bottom line, and China has its own way to deal Modi with a hard blow.
