The outbreak of the new crown epidemic that began in 2020 has also exposed the ills of many countries in the world. For example, before this, Western countries have always been arrogant, but under the test of this period, they have also been forced to show the shortcomings of the Western model.
Today, combined with the impact of various situations, the US price is soaring, the supply chain is broken, the inflation problem is serious, and various crises continue to intensify. On the contrary, China, which has always been regarded as a thorn in the side of the United States, has shown a strong ability to deal with the epidemic during this period, and has also become a model for the world's fight against the epidemic, and even when countries around the world have not resumed work and production, China has taken the lead in making a name for "Made in China".
This is also reminiscent of what Duterte once said: If you follow the United States, you will eventually only lead to war, and if you follow China, you will move toward development. Even before, many countries have listened to the self-proclaimed lies of the United States, but in the face of such facts, we need not say much.
Since the beginning of 2020, the epidemic crisis has seriously damaged the national strength of the United States, and the United States has had to rely on the support provided by the Chinese side when dealing with various international issues and restoring domestic economic development. The recent G20 Leaders' Summit was successfully held, and the theme of this meeting is still focused on fighting the epidemic, development, promoting economic recovery and global climate change.
On October 31, U.S. Secretary of State Blinken visited the Chinese delegation. It is worth noting that on that day Blinken deliberately chose to enter through the side door and then arrive at the conference hall. When Foreign Minister Wang Yi met with Blinken, the two sides did not "touch their elbows" or shake hands, but only took a group photo according to the procedure, and then the two sides held a 50-minute meeting.
It is worth noting that after the meeting, when the door of the conference hall was opened, the reporter photographed Foreign Minister Wang Yi and Blinken patting each other on the shoulder, and through this simple small detail, it can also be seen that this time the sino-US conversation should have achieved certain results.
In any diplomatic situation, a small gesture is enough to illustrate a problem, from Blinken's initiative to visit the Chinese station, and then from the low-key entry through the side door, it can be seen that in this confrontation, China is the main one, and the United States is the guest. As for why the United States rarely shows such a humble posture, it is nothing more than that the United States is now looking to China, and this kind of appeal is still very urgent.
Judging from China's diplomatic attitude, as long as it is willing to cooperate with China, if the other side has any difficulties, China will try to help as much as possible if it can help. However, the paradox lies in the fact that although the United States now has a good attitude toward China, it is still unwilling to abandon the Cold War mentality, and in addition to sending aircraft carriers to constantly show off force in the South China Sea, it has also expressed its support for the Taiwan authorities in "confrontation and reunification," which also makes the progress of Sino-US relations particularly embarrassing.
However, now out of consideration for his own interests, Blinken has once again reiterated that "the US side will continue to adhere to the one-China policy," which also means that the "US backers" expected by the Taiwan authorities are now unreliable.
