International Roaming
In the face of an era of lack of international leadership in China and the United States, it is difficult for us to expect a superpowers to lead the world to respond to challenges, and other countries can only hold group heating.
The 2019 Coronatte Virus was outbreak in China last December. It has been half a year. There are more than 5.3 million confirmed cases worldwide and more than 340,000 people have died.Among them, the U.S. and Europe have the worst epidemic.This has become the latest reason for US President Trump and China.
Sino -US quarrel, the world suffered.The Video Summit of the Leaders of the G20 (G20) leader shouted temporarily; the United States suspended the funding for WTO on the grounds that the World Health Organization favored China, and also retired from the group;Adhere to the new coronal virus in the text without issuing a joint statement.It can be seen that the confrontation between China and the United States has led to regional organizations and international non -governmental organizations, and it is difficult to play a coordination role at this critical moment.
When the global financial market was storm in 2008, the G20, together with international and regional organizations such as the International Monetary Fund and the European Union, coordinates the central banks of various countries to respond to the financial crisis, and the world can survive the difficulties smoothly.The crisis of crown diseases, because of the disagreement between China and the United States, these international and regional organizations cannot play a leading role.We can only look at the media of the WHD every day, watching the Director -General Tan Desai and the United Nations Secretary -General Guterres, and scattered calling for China and the United States to let go.
What Trump does is in line with his consistent behavior.He has never cared about the obligations and responsibilities of the US leadership.As a businessman, he cares about the short -term interest gains and losses on the book, not long -term national interests.This is very different from traditional political leaders from realism.
This time he was obviously unable to resist.In addition to confirmed cases and the number of deaths in the United States, the world is the largest, and the economy has also been greatly affected. The unemployment rate is the highest since the Great Depression of the 1930s.Trump's bows are obviously in the focus of diverting resistance to some states and health officials in the United States, Obama, China, World Health Organization, and European allies. After all, there are less than half a year.It's right.However, what is worrying is that this extremely instigated means to split the international community to the outside world and split American society internally.
In the era of globalization, the international community must have a large country that can play international leadership in order to achieve the tasks and obligations that provide various public products in the world.The emergence of the World Trade Organization, G7, World Bank, and International Monetary Fund, is the international community led by the United States in the past to play the results of leadership in the process of globalization. They all promoted the development of the world economic development.The United Nations has maintained world peace in the world for more than 70 years. WHO has assisted countries to fight epidemic diseases for many years, and UNESCO coordinates the protection of human cultural heritage.Without the support of big powers, these tasks are difficult.
However, the United States led by Trump has shifted right in the past four years and gradually abandoned the role of leading the international community.Those who can retreat, he wants to let the United States retire; those who can pay for the meeting, he wants to tighten the American pocket; he can catch him immediately.Therefore, this crisis crisis, it is difficult for the world to expect the United States to play a leading role. One is that the United States is in a timeless, and the other is that Trump does not want to do this order without direct benefits.
Can China replace the role of the United States?Of course, China can, but the time is not the time.Although different leaders of China have emphasized on different occasions that China has never thought of challenging the United States or replacing the United States, but it is a superpower in Chinese history. It naturally wants to restore this status, and its development trajectory also moves towards this direction.
The 2019 Asian Power Index Report of the Australian Institute of Institute of Institute of Institute of Institute of Think Tank (Lowy Institute) pointed out that China is a superpower after the United States.One is conducive to your own international environment.
Although China emphasizes that it advocates the world's polarization and the democratization of international relations, reality is another matter. The superpower always follows power, that is, the truth, so international relations do not have democratization conditions.China's domestic system experience also illustrates the advantages of power governance, and it is even more impossible for international relations to be democratized.The international order naturally moves towards the era when China and the United States are resisted. The international community must be the first to look at these two super nations.
However, China is obviously not yet the strength of the United States. After all, leading the world is a huge responsibility.Taking the crisis of the crown as an example, China has always faced the question of virus diffusion in the face of the initial suppression of the epidemic information.China cannot raise the trust of the international community, and its international leadership must be discounted; but to gain the trust of the international community, it must be lowered, but the process is time -consuming.
In the face of an era of lack of international leadership in China and the United States, it is difficult for us to expect a superpowers to lead the world to respond to challenges, and other countries can only hold group heating.However, the threat of crisis crisis on human civilization is already the same. What should the world do in the face of climate change crisis?
