Recently, the foreign ministers of China and the United States met again at the East Asia Summit Foreign Ministers' Meeting. This meeting revealed a lot of new information, so let's talk about what's behind it.
Foreign Minister Wang Yi and Secretary of State Blinken did not seem to have a good atmosphere when they met. Wang Yi directly pointed out that the United States' suppression of China has not been relented at all, but has intensified. This is plain enough, and it seems that the Chinese side is very dissatisfied with the United States approach.
Xiao Wang commented: When these two people meet, it's like a blind date for each other, and it's not polite at all. It seems that it is difficult to make a major breakthrough in Sino-US relations in the short term.
Wang Yi also specifically mentioned the South China Sea issue this time. He said that China has been exercising restraint and has signed many documents for the sake of regional peace and stability. However, some countries have come up with the so-called "South China Sea arbitration", which is invalid in China's view.
Wang Yi also specifically named the Philippines in Ren'ai Jiao, and asked the Philippine side to stop tossing. This is hard enough, and it seems that China has no intention of backing down on the South China Sea issue.
Lao Li's comment: The pot of water in the South China Sea seems to be getting hotter and hotter. China is drawing a red line for the Philippines, and if it makes any more trouble, there will be a big incident.
Blinken was not idle this time, saying that United States would take action against Chinese companies that support Russia's military industry. This sounds like the idea of continuing to sanction Chinese companies.
It seems that United States still wants to use sanctions against China, but the effect may not be too good. After all, China is much more resilient to pressure now than it was before.
Xiao Zhang complained: United States wants to flip the table if it can't win. However, this trick probably won't scare China, so let's talk about it.
Some experts have analyzed that the game of going back and forth between China and the United States may be coming to an end. Why?
First, the drama of provoking China in the South China Sea, as the Philippines has done, may be running out. China can cope with it with only the coast guard, and it does not need to use the military at all. This shows that China's strength in the South China Sea is already very strong.
Second, China is not only competing with United States in East Asia, but is also beginning to meddle in the Middle East and Ukraine issues. This shows that China's influence is expanding, and it is becoming more and more difficult for the United States to unilaterally dominate the situation.
Lao Wang's comment: It seems that China wants to play with United States on a larger scale. This game of chess is really high, and the world pattern is estimated to change in the future.
@海阔天空: After so many years of fighting between China and the United States, United States is really a bit of a Jiang Lang talent. Now it's not easy to even make a little brother like the Philippines, and it seems that it's really a bit difficult.
United States is now suffering from internal and external troubles, and its energy is insufficient. However, the United States has a thick foundation and can still be tossed in the short term. The key is for China to calm down and take every step of the way.
@春天来了: Foreign Minister Wang Yi spoke very hard this time, and it seems that China is really not afraid to United States. But I think it's better to exercise restraint and not make things bigger.
Foreign Minister Wang Yi's statement is indeed very tough, which shows that China has more confidence. But you're right, you still have to pay attention to proportion, don't make things stiff. After all, China and the United States will benefit both sides if they cooperate, and they will hurt both if they fight.
@小明同学: I feel that China is getting more and more powerful now, and even dares to meddle in the Middle East issue. But I'm worried about whether I'll get involved too?
China is now indeed expanding its influence on a global scale. This shows that China's strength and self-confidence are rising. But your worries are justified, and participating in international affairs comes with taking risks. The key is to have wisdom and contribute to world peace and development while safeguarding our own interests.
The meeting between the Chinese and US foreign ministers revealed a lot of new information. It seems that the game between China and the United States will continue, but the pattern may change. We, ordinary people, will continue to pay attention and see how this great power game will evolve. What do you think? Welcome to leave a message in the comment area to discuss!
