Kurt Campbell, the highest official of the White House in charge of Asian affairs, believes that China and the United States may live peacefully together; but as Beijing becomes more confident and tough, the relationship between the two countries is facing a huge challenge.Even so, he still opposes the use of "New Cold War" to define Sino -US relations and hints that leaders of the two countries may have contact soon.
The scholars of the interviewees believe that Campbell's speech reflects Washington's exploring new policies for China, but the tone of the two countries in China and the United States will not change.Essence

Campbell said that there may be an uncertainty in the future, and even occasionally there may be tensions."Do I think that the United States and China may coexist and get along peacefully? Yes, I think this is possible. But I also think that the challenges faced by this generation and the next generation are extremely difficult."
He believes that the Chinese government has become more and more tough recently. It has taken action on many countries including Australia, which is in sharp contrast to the 1990s' approach, and such foreign policies may continue.
Xi Jinping, General Secretary of the Communist Party of China and Chinese President Xi Jinping, strongly responded to the external pressure faced by China at the CPC's Centennial Conference last week.He shouted to the United States, saying that the external forces of delusions to bully, oppression and slavery in China must "bleed their heads."

Cheng Xiaohe, an associate professor of the School of International Relations of the Renmin University of China, analyzed the United Zaobao that Campbell's speech explained that the Bayeng government has diagnosed the relationship between the relationship between the two countries after reviewing the policy of China, but has not found the right medicine."It is certain that the past guidelines and policies are no longer adapted to the current Sino -US relations. Both countries need to pass more interaction and find a new balance point in the next year or two. Leaders of the two countries are a good starting point."
James Char, assistant researcher at the Nanyang University of Technology Rajerinan International Research Institute, believes that Campbell's speech helps to ease the tension between China and the United States.However, it is not expected that relations between the two countries will usher in a turning point with the contact of the leaders.
