The various measures taken by the United States against China are just a piece of "chicken ribs" that it is a pity to discard and tasteless.
The game between China and the United States now seems to be in a stalemate. Perhaps this statement may not be accurate. It is more likely that the United States is in a state of ineffectiveness in encircling and suppressing China, but he is unwilling to give up, and in the words of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", the various measures of the United States against China are a "chicken rib". It's a pity to throw it away, and it's tasteless to eat.
The United States is now doing its best to co-opt its so-called allies against China. NATO is a big circle pulled out by the United States, and Okus is a small circle pulled out by him. However, the United States now feels that this small circle is not strong enough, so it wants to bring Japan into it, and this small circle has become a second circle compared to the larger circle. The United States also believes that other forces should be brought in, and that is the Philippines. It seems that the United States thinks that it is not enough to let the Philippines enter the small circle of Aukus, so there seems to be no place for the Philippines in this second circle. No matter how small the mosquito is, it is meat, so if Japan and the Philippines are brought together, it seems that it is not so important what kind of circle is called, and they can play their role if they can add chaos and blockage to China.
Originally, the United States wanted NATO to enter the Asia-Pacific region and directly participate in the encirclement of China. Now it seems that the Ukrainian side has not been able to deal with it, and NATO cannot spare its hands internally, and secondly, it is not so powerful now, so although the United States hopes that NATO will play a greater role, it seems that it is a little impossible to count on at present. But the United States still needs to take advantage of Europe. The United States has spoken harshly about China, saying that China can only choose between Europe and Russia. If China chooses Russia, don't think about doing business with Europe. If you want to choose to do business with Europe, you must not have economic and trade relations with Russia. This move of the United States seems to be quite bluffing, but China will certainly not accept the American trick. China doesn't want to do a two-way option at all, what can the United States do with China? What's more, there are some countries in Europe that do not want to be the object of this either-or, and they do not want to give up economic and trade ties with China. This cruel remark by the United States is the same as not saying it.
Over the years, the United States has repeatedly used the method of encircling and suppressing China, which does not seem to have been effective, but the United States does not seem to be able to think of other more effective methods. This is a bit confusing as to why the United States is doing this. In addition to pulling a small circle to suppress China, it is also imposing various sanctions on Chinese companies. These measures have had little effect, but the United States is just not willing to give up. The reasons for this are intriguing.
The first reason may be that the United States still feels that it is very strong, and although China seems to have a hard bone, in the eyes of the United States, the strength of the United States will sooner or later make China weak. The reason why China is not succumbing to weakness is not because China's bones are hard, but because the United States has not put enough pressure on China. The United States feels that it still has a lot of cards in its hand that it has not played, so it still wants to keep putting pressure on China until China relents and concedes defeat. In China's view, this is not going to work. But the United States does not seem to see it that way. They always overestimate their own power and underestimate China's power. So these sets that they use repeatedly, although they don't work, they still don't plan to give up. After all, they really didn't have much else to do.
The second reason may be that the United States believes that he has many hidden supporters in China, or, to put it bluntly, American undercover agents. Among these undercover agents, some may be academics, while others may be officials. Although these undercover agents do not have the final say on China's major policies today, the United States believes that these undercover agents may play a role at some critical moment. In the eyes of the United States, the United States now uses round after round of methods to contain and suppress China, which does not seem to have much effect, but the United States insists that if the United States exerts more pressure on China in the future, some people in China will feel that they cannot stand it, especially those hidden undercover agents, who may stand up and shout for the United States and exert tremendous pressure on the Chinese government. Perhaps the United States also believes that the pressure is increasing little by little, and it is impossible to see any changes in China now, and it is impossible to stand up to the possibility that one day, when the pressure accumulates to a certain extent, China may be crushed. If one day the Chinese government loses its nerve and is forced to give in to the United States, then the United States' goal will be achieved.
It's hard to say how likely this is right now. But the possibility exists. We cannot turn a deaf ear to this, let alone take it lightly. It is known that the fortress is the easiest to breach from the inside. The harm they can do to these hidden undercover agents, or as we could call them the fifth column, is something we can never underestimate.
The third reason is that the United States has never wanted to give up inciting color revolutions in China. In the past two years, it seems that the United States has not found a grip to incite color revolutions. But before the pandemic, the United States did a lot of such incitement in Hong Kong. Later, the riots in Hong Kong were suppressed by the Hong Kong National Security Law, and the United States fabricated rumors about the so-called forced labor in Xinjiang out of thin air in an attempt to destabilize China again. Of course, this time the United States still failed. The United States has always wanted to use the pressure exerted by the United States on China to cause a backlash within China, so that those opposition within China will jump out and create a Ukrainian-style color revolution, and then China will face this complicated situation. If the United States takes advantage of this situation to exert pressure on China, the possibility of China giving in will increase a lot.
The fourth reason is that the United States has never been willing to resign itself to their failures. There is a word in English called try (pronounced "kick" in Chinese), which means "to try". In the eyes of the British and the Americans, to do anything, you have to kick it. If you don't kick, how do you know you can't? In the past, when China negotiated with Britain or the United States, the British and American sides would always make obvious and unrealistic demands to the Chinese side that China would have to reject. Afterwards, the Chinese personnel asked the British and American negotiators, knowing that we would not accept such unreasonable demands, why did you make such unreasonable demands? Their answer was, "If we don't kick it, how do you know that you won't answer?" If we bring it up and you accept it, won't we earn it? If you don't accept it, there's nothing to lose us. There are no dates to hit three poles, this is the psychology of the Ansar people. There is nothing that cannot be kicked in them. For them, there is no such thing as an insurmountable bottom line.
Chairman Mao said, make trouble, fail, make trouble again, fail again, and make trouble again...... Until extinction, this is the logic of imperialism. Every time they make trouble, they keep kicking, they fail once, they kick again. Keep kicking, keep losing, this is the logic of imperialism. We also need to recognize and understand the logic of imperialism. This logic is a shameless logic, the logic of a robber. We must understand that imperialism is so shameless and shameless. Imperialism doesn't matter if you want to save face.
We also need to keep a clear head about the ugly manifestations of imperialism. Among the Chinese, it is more or less necessary to talk about a little gentleness and frugality. But with the Ansars, the Chinese do not need to understand or learn this way. So we don't need to tell them about this in our civilization. As for the Ansars, when playing with them, they only need to grasp one point, that is, grasp the interests they are concerned about, which is their bull's nose. Catch the bull's nose, and they will be much more honest.
The game between China and the United States looks like it will be a relatively long process. In this regard, we need to be mentally prepared to fight a protracted war. As long as we stand firm, as long as we do the right thing, we can't fail. But we should not expect a quick victory, nor can we expect the game between China and the United States to end in the short term. Meals must be eaten one bite at a time, the road must be walked step by step, and the battles must be fought one by one. Small victories are big victories, and the final victory will belong to us.
