U.S. President Bynden on May 21 After the member states of the Seventh Kingdom Group (G7) Group (G7) in Hiroshima, Japan and formed the Anti -China Alliance, U.S. -China relations immediately thawed it, emphasizing that the seven major economic national ideas in the West are reducing risks andNon -decoupling with China.Biden's prophecy seemed to be a soon. The frequency of high -level interaction between foreign and foreign trade in China and the United States increased again last week, increasing the expectations of Beijing and Washington to accelerate out of the haze of the balloon incident in February this year.
However, the momentum of restarting the dialogue between China and the United States quickly encountered cold again.The Wall Street Journal quoted the Pentagon State on Monday (May 29) that the United States wanted to actively promote the Chinese Defense Minister Li Shangfu and the US Defense Minister Austin in early May this year.Meeting, but was rejected by China.
This means that since Li Shangfu served as the Defense Minister in March this year, he continued to maintain a zero interaction with Austin, and put a stronger posture than his predecessor in his military dialogue.
When Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs spokesman Mao Ning was questioned on Tuesday, he did not deny the news that the Sino -US defense ministers met this week, and twice stated that the reason why the current Sino -US military dialogue faced difficulties "the United States is clear."She urged the United States to respect China's sovereignty, security and interests, immediately correct the wrong practices, show sincerity, take practical actions, and create necessary atmosphere and conditions for the two armies and communication.
Mao Ning's response seems to leave a cyclone space, but Xianghui will appear on Friday (June 2). Ask the United States to take out specific actions to show sincerity, in order to promote the meeting of China and the United States.It's late.
In fact, the obstacles between Li Shangfu and Austin are not easy to dismantle in a short time. Li Shangfu and the US government have long been buried more than four years ago.
The Trump administration accused the PLA for buying weapons from Russia, ignoring Washington's comprehensive sanctions laws formulated by Moscow's annexation of Crimea and intervention in the 2016 US election, etc. In September 2018Li Shangfu, the Minister of Equipment Development of the Military Commission, performed sanctions.
For the first time the United States used this legal punishment for a third -party country with arms transactions with Russia, the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs expressed "strong indignation" at the time and proposed a serious negotiation, saying that the United States seriously damaged the relationship between China and the United States and the two armies.
After Li Shangfu served as the Defense Minister in March this year, the US State Department that announced the sanctions that year did not submit an olive branch, saying that there was no intention of revoking sanctions. He also believed that sanctions did not hinder the official meeting of senior Chinese military.
From the current results, the assessment of the US diplomatic system two months ago was obviously too optimistic.
Chinese State Councilor and Foreign Minister Qin Gang met with the United States Ambassador to China in Beijing on May 8th. It was considered that Beijing had been prepared to turn the balloon events.However, Qin Gang also reminded the United States at the time that he could not talk about communication on the one hand, but on the other hand, he kept curbing China.
Qin Gang also urged the Bayeng government to respect the red line of Beijing's bottom line, especially to properly handle Taiwan's issue, stop continuing to hollow out the "one China principle", and stop supporting the "Taiwan independence" division forces.
But the United States has not recently reduced the pace of stepping on the Beijing Red Line.The Biden government was exposed to the "Ukraine model". After the President's appropriation rights will bypass the 500 million U.S. dollars (S $ 678 million) in Congress's military military in Taiwan, the first batch of US "poisoning" portable air defense missiles last Wednesday (May 24)The arrival of Taoyuan Airport and delivered the Ministry of Defense of Taiwan, which triggered a high degree of vigilance in Beijing.
Mao Ning criticized the United States on Friday, "extremely wrong, very dangerous", and he had proposed a serious negotiation to the United States for the "destroying the Taiwan".
Mao Ning also said that China will pay close attention to the development of the situation and firmly maintain national sovereignty, security and territorial integrity.The next day, the Chinese aircraft carrier Shandong and two ships who had participated in the "Lianli Sword" trap in April this year passed the Taiwan Strait, and then issued a warning to the US Taiwan with military deterrence.
The United States has also continued to increase the scale and frequency of the allies around the Taiwan Strait in the near future.The latest time is the first time with Japan and the Philippines to hold joint co -defense exercises with Japan and the Philippines in the South China Sea. Through the union of the Taiwan Strait and the South China Sea Crisis, the allies to unite the South China Sea Crisis to form a more effectively containment of the enclosure in Beijing.
China and the United States have also continued to launch military efforts in the South China Sea. The United States India Command issued a statement and short film on Tuesday (May 30), accusing the Chinese fighter in the South China Sea International Airspace on May 26, to the United StatesThe reconnaissance aircraft conducts "unprofessional interception" and "unnecessary provocations".
Mao Ning criticized the US military's long -term shipping aircraft on Wednesday to conduct nearly reconnaissance against China, which seriously endangers China's national sovereignty security. This provocative dangerous action is the root cause of maritime security issues.Essence
It is conceivable that Li Shangfu has not seen much of Austin's motivation in private in private, and it is difficult to thaw in the short term of Sino -US military relations.However, as the head of the two major military forces in the region, even when they meet, they will not communicate.The biggest value of the China -US Defense Minister's meeting is still the bottom and reduction of misjudgment to avoid miscalculating the situation.
Bynden government recently only adjusts the use of speech, trying to reduce the tension with China in order to create an atmosphere of favorable dialogue.If China is looking forward to showing sincerity in the United States through specific actions, it can be expected that Sino -US restart security dialogue will be far away.
