The Spanish China Policy Observation Website published an article entitled by the West's biggest misunderstanding of China on April 17. The author is Spanish Chinese expert Halio Rioos.Article excerpts as follows:
The biggest misunderstanding of China in China may be in China's strategic intent.There are two views that they will quietly appear in any debate, but rarely discuss it.The first view is that China's success will inevitably mean our destruction.The second point of view is that China's success will lead to intensified conflicts.But let's take a look at the actual situation.
China's modernization process has indeed entered the right track, achieving many goals.China has spent a lot of time for this, and it is basically achieved on the basis of its own efforts, and it has also created huge benefits for other countries.Perhaps sometimes people infer from the information read or hear that China has achieved these achievements overnight, but this is not the case.It began in the 19th century and experienced the entire 20th century, and it will consume most of the 21st century.
Equation and development of backwardness and development are not a goal that can simply slander. This goal is to cure the trauma in the long and complex history.China is now the second largest economy in the world, and calculations are calculated at parity of purchasing power.
External effects show that China is now more like a protagonist, because China's capabilities are more powerful and can make more contributions to global needs.This has the first risk:As a result, they refused to give China a corresponding status in global governance.
However, the fact is that if we look at what has happened in the past 50 years, we will find that China's commitment to multilateralism and the development of modernization are parallel: from the 1970s to the United Nations, to the Cold War to participate in multilateralism after the Cold WarBy the beginning of the 21st century, various initiatives focusing on development and security, as well as accelerating this process in new ways, including the joint construction of the “Belt and Road” initiative, the BRICS cooperation mechanism, and the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank.
In fact, China wants stability, it takes time and space to further develop.Adhering to the needs of sharing development meets the needs of China's own development.Now it is the period when China has the highest dependence in its history (with other countries), so it will never give up opening.Because of this, China's success means opportunities for other countries.
At the global level, China's pursuit of stability and (some countries) incite conflicts in sharp contrast.The community of destiny advocated by the Chinese leadership is based on pillars such as security, development and civilization, which is by accident.(Compilation/Wang Meng)
