After many twists and turns, US Secretary of State Brosky's special plane finally arrived in Beijing on the morning of June 18.China did not use flowers and red carpets at the airport to greet Brinken, which might make Brinken feel a little cold in the hot weather in Beijing.
In fact, public opinion, including China and the United States, is not optimistic about Brincken's trip to China. Some Taiwanese media even claimed that Brinken went to Beijing to "send death".
Indeed, it is difficult to make people optimistic about Brincayan since 2018, which has fallen since 2018.Not to mention anything else, in the news that China announced the visit to China, it was said that Brintken's visit to China was "agreed on both sides" instead of normal invitation to China, indicating that the Chinese side was not enthusiastic about visiting, and even there was even there was any.Chinese public opinion said that Brinken's visit was "forcibly chanting."
On June 14, the Chinese State Councilor and Foreign Minister Qin Gang "responded" with Brinken. This call clearly finalized the date of visiting China to visit China.However, the press release issued by China was only Qin Gang's tone talked about the "solemn position" of China on issues such as Taiwan. He did not say anything about Tonorins, showing that the two sides did not reach any consensus.
After the "balloon incident" broke out in February this year, Brinken announced that it was delayed to visit China. The relationship between the two countries that had eased the two countries after the meeting of the Bali Island last November last year again fell to the freezing point.After that, the United States increased its military sales against Taiwan, and the Chinese military refused to connect to the US military. The China -US aircraft warships had a dangerous confrontation between the South China Sea and the Taiwan Strait. China Defense Minister refused to meet with the US Chief of Defense in the Shangri -La dialogue in Singapore.China sanction US chip giant Micron, the United States continues to sanction Chinese companies.You come and go, and go further and further on the road of confrontation.
Although both China and the United States have said that they must avoid the "New Cold War", the current Sino -US relations have actually begun to enter the "New Cold War" state.One of the pioneers of contemporary Sino -US relations, former US Secretary of State, Kissinger, recently expressed pessimism to Sino -US relations, saying that Sino -US relations have stood on the "cliff", and the two sides may erupt military conflicts in the Taiwan Strait.
On the eve of the visit to China, Bloomberg published a comment article entitled by China on June 16, entitled that China ’s best listening to what Brinton must say, saying that China is“ making mistakes ”.The article said: "Although China's military capabilities have grown rapidly, it still lacks the advantages of upgrade." "As far as experience, training and weapons and equipment are concerned, the US military is still the most powerful in the world."The gap between the power of the species (China and the United States) will still be a long -term reality in geopolitics. "
Hua Chunying, Assistant Minister of Foreign Affairs of China, pushed Bloomberg's comments on June 17.She said: "For many Chinese readers, this article is coercion. The author of the article may need a history and geographical lesson."
Hua Chunying said toughly: "(Article) asserting that China does not have a means of counterattack and willingness? I don't know if the author understands the heroic performance of the Chinese aggression against American aggression in the Korean War? In addition, the United States in Vietnam, Iraq, or AfghanistanIs there any victory in the war ...? "" If someone wants to hurt China and it is unscrupulous, it is fantasy. In short, China always has an open attitude towards negotiations, but at the same time, we willDo not hesitate to defend our legitimate rights. "
The tough posture of both China and the United States allows some Chinese media to infer that Brintken may "run in vain" this time.However, this inference may be too simple.
On the whole, China and the United States have indeed entered a long -term game and even confrontation.However, it is also impossible to ignore that games and confrontation are not all of Sino -US relations, and there are huge common interests between the two sides.Regardless of whether both parties are willing, this common interest that has long been bundled is not that any party can break.
Because of this, the United States has repeatedly emphasized that it is necessary to establish open communication with China, install "guardrails" for Sino -US relations, eliminate misunderstandings and avoid misjudgment, and explore the potential for cooperation between the two countries to carry out cooperation in cross -border challenges.
Although China has not resigned on criticizing the "domineering act" in the United States, it has repeatedly claimed that the door to the Chinese dialogue and communication is open. I hope that the United States and China will be able to move back and promote Sino -US relations to gradually return to the stable development track.
Some public opinion in China said that Brinken's visit to China is nothing more than allowing China to buy US debt, asking China to stop changing the status quo of the Taiwan Strait unilaterally, asking China to stop assisting Russia, etc., indicating that Brinton is "a bad belly". China cannot China cannotpromise.
This statement obviously only sees the side of the Sino -US game confrontation, which underestimates the importance of the common interests between China and the United States to the two sides, especially the importance of China's development.
In fact, Chinese officials explicitly stated during the meeting with the US President's Biden last November that under the current situation, the common interests of China and the United States are not reduced, but more.China and the United States do not conflict, do not confront, and coexist peacefully. This is the most basic common interests of the two countries.The in -depth integration of China and the United States needs to benefit from the development of the other party. This is also a common interest.
No matter how much contradictions between China and the United States have, it is impossible for both parties to be completely decoupled.The visit to China ’s visit to China marks that the gate of China is open to senior American officials. Next, there may be ministers or higher -level officials from both sides.Without a major accident, Chinese officials would likely attend the Asia -Pacific Economic Cooperation Organization Summit in San Francisco in November this year and meet again with Biden.
Sino -US restart high -level interoperability, of course, does not mean that Sino -US relations can return to the past, but the dialogue can reduce the confrontation between China and the United States, which is conducive to China's alleviating external pressure.Good benefits.In this sense, even though Brincken and Chinese senior officials still speak, visiting China has no major results, but it is definitely not "running for a while."
