Recently, an interview video that went viral on the Internet attracted a lot of attention, and Indian media people delved into the country's former ambassador to Russia, Pankaj Saran's unique insights on the relations between China, Russia, India and the United States. In this interview, Ambassador Saran spoke sharply, not only bluntly saying that China has surpassed Russia in strength, but also analyzing the deep-seated contradictions between China and Russia from the perspective of sociology and political science. He mentioned that although China and Russia are friends, China maintains contacts with Europe and the United States at the same time, which makes him feel that the fundamental contradictions between China and Russia are difficult to reconcile.
As for the argument that "China has no friends", Ambassador Saran bluntly stated that "China only has friends who are at pain". Such an opinion has undoubtedly caused an uproar on the Internet. However, when we dig deeper into this view, we will find that it is actually biased and one-sided.
First, we need to recognize that interactions between countries are not simply an exchange of interests, but a complex relationship involving multiple aspects. As a country with a long history and culture, China has always adhered to the principles of peace, cooperation and win-win results in its foreign relations. Whether it is with its Asian neighbors, Africa, Latin America and other regions, China has established profound friendship and close cooperative relations. These countries have given great support and assistance to China in the process of development, and they are China's true friends.
Second, we also need to think about the statement that "China only has friends who are bad", and we need to think from multiple angles. In international relations, every country may face some challenges and difficulties, but this does not mean that the countries with which it interacts are all "bad friends". In fact, China has always adhered to the principles of equality, mutual benefit and win-win results in its exchanges with other countries, and is committed to promoting the building of a community with a shared future for mankind. Although some differences and contradictions will inevitably arise in the process, this does not prevent us from working together to solve problems and promote the development of cooperation.
Finally, we need to recognize that relationships between countries are complex and changeable. In different historical periods and international environments, the relationship of interests and cooperation between countries will also change accordingly. Therefore, we cannot simply define a country as a "friend" or a "bad friend", but should conduct an objective and comprehensive analysis on a case-by-case basis. Only in this way can we better understand and grasp the essence and laws of international relations.
