Li Zhengxiu: Dont be complacent in the United States and China

Author: Li Zhengxiu

The US -China Economic and Security Council (USCC) authorized by the United States Congress released the latest annual report last month. From Beijing's internal and external challenges, US -China competition, and China Global Ambitional 3 aspects, we will deeply explore the words and deeds of Beijing in recent years.The report also mentioned the current situation of Taiwan and Hong Kong, and proposed how the US government should counter the CCP and ensure the two democratic society.

The Chinese dream just happened to make the United States great again, and the top two economies in the world could not avoid competitions at all levels after all.In fact, in the later period of Obama's administration, the United States determined that China had ambitions to challenge the current international order, accused Beijing abuse the achievements of economic reform in the past 30 years, and gradually increased the threats of politics and forces in democratic countries through the initiative of the Belt and Road Initiative.The success of economic reform will bring a gap in political reform. This is the main reason why the two parties of the United States are gradually forming China is the consensus of China's strategic competitors.

The USCC report pointed out that China ’s manufacturing capabilities such as high -tech, biotechnology, military technology, and artificial intelligence have made rapid progress, which will become a tool for the CCP to achieve its global ambitions. Therefore, it is reminded that the US administrative department needs to pay close attention to the future trends of the land.

Mainland China has achieved great success in all aspects of the above aspects. Indeed, it is concerned about whether these technologies will be converted into military expansion and internal control momentum. Recently, the United States has successively passed the human rights bill on Hong Kong and Xinjiang Uighurs, which is the best example.

This report is detailed in the potential ability of mainland China, but it also exaggerates the substantial threat.The mainland does have improved in 5G and other industries, but it still needs to have a period of time to catch up, because many key technologies are still in the hands of American companies.It is foreseeable that the two strongs will continue to compete in these high -end technology.

Although the United States has vigorously shaped China as a potential opponent, it is necessary to threaten countries to cooperate with its seal strategy's crushing policy, but it has not been as expected.Countries are still wary of China, but they are unwilling to become a victim of the United States and Lu. They hope to continue to maintain a traditional balance model of economy and the United States.It just depends on whether such expectations can continue. It depends on Trump's personal preference.

When Cai Yingwen met with the United States, he was optimistic that he is the best time for Taiwan and the United States.Basically, since Trump took office, the United States has supported Taiwan's democratic politics whether it is the administrative department or Congress, and also assisted Taiwan to resist various measures that Beijing to suppress Taiwan's international space.The Huafu meeting of the national security consultants on both sides did allow Taiwan to receive a little warmth after losing 7 diplomatic relations.

However, the Tsai government cannot be complacent. It is thought that these goodwills of the United States are the results of their work on the United States. Instead, ignoring the deadlock on both sides of the strait is the subject that Taiwan must face seriously.In order to elect the operation, the DPP will definitely push all the issues of the Taiwan Strait to Beijing to shape the troublemaker of the Taiwan Strait.The benefit of the inverted policy is not the scope of Cai Yingwen's thinking at all.

The United States and China have the tacit understanding of the trap of Xunxida, and maintaining the fight without breaking the policy choice at this stage.Tsai Ing -wen ignored the compromise of the two strongs and was eager to take the middle line of the love of the love. It did not conform to the interests of the people of Taiwan. Voting on January 11 next year, choosing to remove Cai Yingwen is the way to protect Taiwan.
