Since China's space power has developed by leaps and bounds in recent years, Western countries have risen from vigilance to anxiety, and they have done their utmost to smear China's actions in outer space, with the intention of repeating the old events of the united States and the Soviet Union in space hegemony. Quoting the news of the Global Network on the 2nd, some US defense media disclosed that as China's heaviest and most advanced communication satellite, "Shijian 20" was once approached by the US space surveillance satellite "Us 271".
The report quoted information provided by the space tracking agency, saying that after the Chinese satellite detected the approaching of the US satellite, it began to calibrate the operation, and carried out extremely small but extremely difficult maneuvers in orbit, avoiding the surveillance of the US satellite. The US media believes that although this is not the first time this has happened, it shows that China's current space strength can already compete with the United States.
In fact, these clashes are not only in outer space, but also in the United Nations, and on the 1st of this month, the 76th session of the Disarmament and International Security Committee of the General Assembly voted to adopt two resolutions, "No first placement of weapons in outer space" and "further practical measures to prevent an arms race in outer space", in which the concept of "a community with a shared future for mankind" proposed by China was included. Although this is the third consecutive year that the attempt to prevent the concept from being included in the resolution of the General Assembly has been thwarted, Geng Shuang, China's Deputy Permanent Representative to the United Nations and also head of a delegation to the General Assembly, still expressed his views on this action before the vote, saying: There is a saying in China that "there are no more than three things", and individual countries create antagonism and are not interested in self-deprecation, and call on relevant countries to abandon the Cold War mentality at an early date and devote themselves to true multilateralism.
It is not difficult to guess that the reason why the "community of shared future for mankind" will be prevented from being included in the RESOLUTION of the UN General Assembly is not because there is a problem with this concept, but that these Western countries do not want to see the "China Concept" become the content of the UN resolution.
Compared with not wanting the Chinese concept to become the consensus of the United Nations, Western countries, especially the United States, are probably more reluctant to see their space status shaken, even if China, as a challenger, is still inferior to the United States in terms of overall strength. For a long time, the United States has regarded space as its own land, after all, as the victor of the Cold War, it lost the pressure of the Soviet Union, and no one in the world could catch up with the United States even for a long time, until the rise of China's aerospace in the 21st century, this situation was truly broken.
Whether it is a landing on the far side of the moon, or the first landing on Mars exploration is declared successful, it means that at the technical level, China's catch-up speed is not only fast, but also shows amazing stability, if you compare the investment of China and the United States in the field of space, it can be found that China is far lower than the Investment of the United States, but can launch an impact on the us space status in cutting-edge technology.
And all this seems particularly harsh in the eyes of the United States, so the United States first hyped up the "China threat theory", and then led this topic to space, in fact, the purpose of the United States is very obvious, that is, it hopes to create an excuse out of thin air, set off a new round of space race, and fantasize that China will follow the example of the Soviet Union, invest massive resources into space at any cost, and eventually drag down its own finances and economy.
It is a pity that China has obviously done a better job than the United States in drawing lessons from history, but the United States has now shown signs of "exhausting military force," and this is why former Russian President Vladimir Putin commented that the United States is "unswervingly following the old path of the Soviet Union." This routine of exhausting means to create an imaginary enemy for itself is no longer in line with the current era, and this kind of words and tricks of the United States can be put to rest.
