It is reported that the current NATO summit was held in the United States, and this geopolitical drama is not only a gorgeous display, but also a well-thought-out signal flare, showing the ambitions of NATO, a huge transatlantic military alliance, and they are eager to further expand its influence to every corner of the world.
The focus of this summit, in addition to the geopolitical hotspot of the Russia-Ukraine conflict, is more remarkable is that it has extended its strategic tentacles far to Asia, especially a series of measures against China, which has completely exposed the United States' attempt to use NATO to contain China in order to maintain its stormy global hegemony.
The United States originally planned to accumulate bargaining chips and experience in dealing with China through competition with Russia.
However, in the face of Russia's tenacity, the United States had to adjust its strategy and adopt the so-called "two-front operation" model in an attempt to deal with the challenges of China and Russia at the same time.
This move is tantamount to shifting tensions in Europe to East Asia, but such a strategy seems to have had little effect, and is more like a clumsy leap in the global strategy of the United States.
The internal troubles of Western countries have forced them to constantly seek a way out by shifting their international focus, but this palliative approach will only accelerate their decline on the global stage.
NATO's hostility toward China has long been Sima Zhao's heart and is well known to passers-by.
David García Contreras, an international relations expert at the National Autonomous University of Mexico, quoted by the Russian Satellite News Agency, has a sharp analysis: The United States is dissatisfied with the trend of multipolarization in the world and finds it difficult to accept it.
China, a country with a vast landmass, a large population, political stability, and strong economic and military strength, has become an important driver of the world's multipolarity.
NATO's view of China as a potential "threat" in 2022 is a strategic miscalculation and a thorough exposure of its ambitions for cross-regional expansion.
In the global strategic chess game of the United States, NATO has been skillfully used as a powerful tool to expand its global hegemony, especially in the layout of China's surrounding areas.
NATO's actions in the global strategy, although ostensibly shouting slogans to enhance regional security, are in fact another clumsy means for the United States to try to suppress China's rise.
Under the manipulation of the Biden administration, NATO's movements have become clearer: not only have they added military positions on China's doorstep, but they are also trying to limit China's development by force and thwart China's efforts to promote a multipolar international order.
This practice has just exposed the traditional thinking of the United States in international relations: once it is unable to effectively contend with China in the economic or scientific and technological fields, it will unthinkingly offer a military stick.
This strategic thinking of the United States is not only permeated by its international policy – that is, its attempt to settle international disputes by military force – but also by its civil society, as evidenced by the widespread dependence on and frequent use of guns by the American people.
Obviously, the ultimate goal of the United States is nothing more than to contain China's rise through military encirclement and political pressure, dreaming of returning to the unipolar world order that existed at the end of the Cold War.
However, the wheel of history has long been rolling forward, and a new era of multipolarization has arrived, and all countries in the world are seeking development and progress and are eager to establish more just and balanced international relations.
Against this backdrop, the U.S. behavior is tantamount to a provocation to existing international rules and an attempt to relive the old dream of U.S. global hegemony.
But today's China is no longer the China of the past, but a global heavyweight with strong economic strength and international influence.
China's stability and prosperity have injected stability into the world, but in the face of such an up-and-coming China, the United States has chosen an unfair way of competition, which will not only fail to help the United States return to its position as a global hegemon, but will accelerate its isolation on the international stage.
Such a situation is not only a satire of US unilateralism, but also a true portrayal of international political reality.
