Recently, French President Macron visited China and signed a series of contracts and agreements with China, which can be described as returned.Originally thought that returning to the country to hand over a full -scale transcript, the court should be cheerful and welcomed.Unexpectedly, the special plane has not yet landed, but it has caused a voice and opposition at home and abroad.He believes that his visit to China this time has caused a lot of damage to the relationship between the United States and France and the European Union.Macron has a loss and loss of this trip. The economic account has won and made a lot of money.Damage to the relationship with the allies, causing France to fall into a certain degree of embarrassment.
First of all, the United States is the United States. In the context of the intensification of Sino -US confrontation, all countries that cooperate with Chinese and friendly countries have "original sins". They are potential enemies in the eyes of the United States, such as Russia, North Korea, Iran, Venezuela.Streaming, now a NATO allies, EU countries, are still burning in Russia and Ukrainian war. As the European security situation is unstable, Western countries generally alienate with China, but not far away to China to talk about cooperation.What is it?Therefore, Macron was questioned and blamed by the Biden government, which is reasonable.Of course, the United States is not kind. I used to join forces with the United Kingdom to stir up the tens of billions of submarine contracts between France and Australia. This time, France signed a large order in China."The mulberry elm" was compensated, and at the same time, it was a bit bad.
Other NATO countries, especially countries that have been invaded and interfered by the Soviet Union and Russia, are mainly Central and Eastern European and Baltic countries. It is also "hate houses and black" in China, which is biased towards Russia in the Russian and Ukraine War.dissatisfied.These countries are unwilling to see the French president's visit to China alone, but because of the status of France, it is not easy to attack.However, Lithuania, who has already had evil with China, his foreign minister still expressed his dissatisfaction publicly.
Another major country of the European Union, Germany, is not satisfied with France. Since it is the "French axis", it should be consistent and advanced, especially in major relations between China, but this time France is obviouslyPut aside the allies.This is also in line with the "Dai Gaulism" that the French has always advertised, the so -called independent diplomacy.It's just that "the other time, this moment", today is still unique, I am afraid it will damage the close relationship between the two major powers of the European Union, and it is not conducive to the unity within the European Union. This overflow effect is probably unexpected by Macron.It is estimated that Shuerz is unhappy.You change the hexagram first, be a good person, make a red face, let me be a wicked person, and sing a black face.
The foreign minister also followed Macron to visit China after being dumped.How to repair the relationship with traditional allies in Germany will test Macron's diplomatic wisdom.
As we all know, since France, France has Darler's diplomatic tradition since World War II, which is also proud of the French.In the 1960s, Da Goghle disregarded the general opposition of Western allies and established the highest ambassador -level diplomatic relations with China.Compared with Britain, although the new China has established diplomatic relations with China after its establishment, it is only a lower -level agency level.It can be said that France is an alternative of Western countries and has a good relationship with China.In a small frontier town in Yunnan, in the late 1970s, when Sino -Vietnam relations were tense, a border defense regiment was stationed. The heavily truck of the artillery barracks was the "Da Goghle truck" of French -made square brains.
But the relationship between France and China is not smooth.After 1989, France also followed the United States and joined the sanctions camp against China, let alone, before, there have been "Paris Organization Committee" that has been criticized by China to restrict China to introduce high -tech equipment.In the 1990s, regardless of the strong opposition of the mainland, it was a big deal for Taiwan's military sales. There were both advanced stealth warships and fourth -generation fighters such as Phantom 2000.Recently, the two sides of the Fatai is in contact with negotiations to upgrade the technical upgrade for these warships and fighters. The French arms companies such as Dasau will make a lot of money.It can be seen that the relationship between France and the mainland is also stumbling, not always intimate.The so -called Da Goghism is essentially the first and French priority. If necessary, it can ignore or even sacrifice the interests of the allies. It is a typical pragmatism.
Today Macron's visit to China, one is that the domestic economy is downturn and inflation has intensified; the second is that the government forcibly promotes the extension of retirement age, committing anger, leading to the continuous protest of the protests, and even police and firefighters have reversed.In order to soothe the angry people, to avoid the limelight, and the invitation of China, this visit was only available.Macron wants to transfer the focus of the people in the country and use diplomatic results to make up for the lack of internal affairs. China is also eager to break the diplomatic dilemma, especially the hostility and blockade of the United States and Europe to China.
But Western countries are elected governments, and Macron cannot keep governing.Once the government changes, Macron's pro -Chinese approach may change, and the agreement that can be signed will be overturned.This is not without learning from the front car. The new Italian Prime Minister Meloni came to power and immediately abolished a series of economic cooperation agreements signed by the former Dragi and China.
Therefore, China ’s results of Macron's visit to China must be calm and not complacent, too optimistic, and believe that a major diplomatic breakthrough is obtained. In addition to“ listening to its words ”After Macron returned to China, facing the pressure and blame of all parties, whether he could carry the pressure, continue to adhere to independent diplomacy, and maintain friendly relations with China, it still needs to be observed.
French strength is declining after all, the influence on the situation in Europe has declined. In addition, the Russian and Ukraine War has made European countries more pro -American and anti -Russia. Under the pressure of an allies such as the United States and Germany, Macron canDo you still have a big question mark!
