The hostileness of the Trump administration has been continuously improved.On May 20th, the White House announced a 16 -page Page of USA's strategic policy to China.In the newspaper, the White House acknowledged that the contact policy of China in the past few decades has failed, and stated that it will adopt a comprehensive pressure to curb China's expansion.

The Trump administration released the National Security Strategy Newspaper and National Defense Security Strategic Report in December 2017 and January 2018. ComparedThe China Strategy Report is very strong targeted.

Inheritance and expansion

The overall tone of this report was to attack China and believe that China challenged the United States in terms of economic, values and security.This is the same as China ’s evaluation of China in China and the National Defense Security Strategy. It is believed that the United States is facing political, economic and military challenges from China, Russia and other.

The Trump administration positioned China as a strategic opponent in the previous two strategic newspapers. This time the newspaper followed the positioning. For example, in the introduction of the instructions to deal with Beijing's challenges, the government has adopted the government to China to China.The competitive policy, (the United States) needs to win in strategic competition with China, and needs to cooperate with multiple stakeholders.

The four pillars of the National Security Strategy Newspaper MDASH; mdash; protect the security of the United States, promote economic prosperity, maintain peace with strength, and expand American influence MDASH; MDASH; it is also reflected in this newspaper.

Specifically, this report has listed the challenges that China brought to the United States in detail. It has both economic levels, such as Chinese intellectual property theft and incomplete economic reforms.A scary behavior adopted by the South China Sea, Taiwan Strait, and the China -India border.

These contents are the refinement and expansion of the previous two reports, and the National Security Strategic Report also mentioned China's infrastructure investment and intellectual property issues.The National Defense Strategy also believes that China is using its military modernization, influence operations and plunder economic activities to coerced neighboring countries and reshape the order of Indo -Pacific region that is beneficial to it.

Sensitive time

The White House's report on China is an expansion of previous reports, and there is no new tough substantial policy or measure for China.But it seems unusual to publish such a newspaper in China.

Some US officials revealed to the Washington Post that the Trump administration drafted the report before the crown disease outbreak.Prior to the release of the newspaper, every institution related to the US government supported the newspaper.

It can be seen that Trump chose to announce at this time that the newspaper was obviously considered.

It was only half a year before the Presidential election in the United States in 2020, and the struggle between the Republican and Democratic Party was even more intense.Both parties chose the same strategy in disputes mdash; mdash; attacking China.The senior consultant of the Democratic President's candidate and former Vice President Biden has revealed the election strategy of Biden: accusing Trump of talking to China, soft actions, and packaging himself as a tough person to China.

The same is true of the Republican Party, especially when Trump's inadequate resistance to the crown disease, China has become a pressure on their domestic criticism.

Trump and U.S. Secretary of State Pompeo repeatedly pushed the epidemic to China. The new crown virus sources China claim from China and continuously rendered China's theory of responsibility.

Earlier, the Republican Senate National Committee was exposed to send 57 pages of memo to campaign agencies, suggesting that Republican candidates responded to the epidemic by actively attacking China.On May 7, the Republican Party established a special working group in China to respond to China's challenges to all levels of the United States.

U.S. warships continue to cruise the South China Sea and Pompeo on May 20 congratulate Cai Yingwen's re -appointed President of Taiwan, and on May 21, the United States against Taiwan's $ 180 million in military sales, etc., all show that the Republican Party is competing with the Democratic Party, which is more than anyone else to China.tough.

Under such a background, even if this report is not only the more direct attitude of the United States to China, it is more and more advocating for competition.The meaning of changes and as the display of all walks of life.

Dangerous signal

From a practical point of view, this time, China is a step in Trump to meet the political ecology of the country.But it should pay more attention to the non -friendly gesture.

Sino -US structural contradictions have become more and more prominent, and the trade war between the two countries has made the US government a strong consensus on China.The US election is approaching, and the United States is difficult to control the epidemic, which has continued to strengthen the hostility of the United States to China.The United States announced its strategy to China with a formal document such as newspapers. This detailed and clearly lists the Chinese threats in the eyes of the United States, which means that the United States has set a overall strategy to China from the top.

The United States constantly feels the threat from Beijing, and it is exaggerating China's role in the political ecology of the United States from all levels.When the United States thinks that the strategy adopted in the past fails, we have to ask: What is the strategy of success in China that the United States thinks?The United States will take a more aggressive and confrontation strategy to China next. It will inevitably lead to a fierce rebound in Beijing. Where will Sino -US relations go next?
