Le Yucheng, Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs of China, said that when he entered 2021, he hoped that the world was "Vientiane updated", and Sino -US relations would also "resign and welcome the new."He pointed out that the real enemy of the United States is a new crown virus rather than China.
According to the website of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of China, Le Yucheng attended the online "New Era Lecture Hall" event with the theme of "Sino -US relations in the New Era" and delivered speeches on the theme of the China Daily.
Le Yucheng said that the new year has begun, and the new American government has just worked. At this time, it is very meaningful to discuss Sino -US relations.The past 2020 is an extremely extraordinary year. The sudden new crown virus has brought unprecedented impact to human beings. Sino -US relations have also experienced the most severe situation in the past 40 years.Entering 2021, I sincerely hope that the world is "Vientiane Update", and Sino -US relations must also "resign and welcome the new."
Le Yucheng pointed out that the real enemy of the United States is the new crown virus rather than China.In the past four years, the Trump administration's wrong China policy tells us from the opposite side: Faced with human challenges like a new crown epidemic, China and the United States, as the main country in the world, must be regarded as teammates rather than opponents; they must illuminate each other;Instead of compete with each other; we must do an example, not the comparison.
Le Yucheng explained four expectations of the development of Sino -US relations in four "R" in English: Respect (mutual respect), REVERSAL, renewal, and Responsibility.
Le Yucheng quoted Shakespeare's famous saying at the end of his speech, "It is not a constellation that masters our destiny, but ourselves."He said that whether Sino -US relations will fall into the so -called "Xiu Xidide Trap", it is by no means destined, but on our field of vision and choice.
