How can the US election in 2024 impact Sino -US relations?In one of the discussions of the Asian Foreign -looking Summit, Chen Qingzhu, a Singaporean Ambassador, threw this problem at the Sino -US former diplomats and scholars on the same stage.Both guests did not answer very clearly, but the words they responded to the lines showed that Sino -US relations would inevitably be affected.
Former US Ambassador Jon Huntsman and Professor Jia Qingguo at the School of International Relations at Peking University attended the Asian Foreign -looking Summit 2023 entitled "Seeking Balance in Geographical Political Tension".
Hon Bopei, who has also made envoys in China and Russia, emphasized when responding to Chen Qingzhu that Sino -US relations must go out of the trough. First of all, we must understand the restrictions in each other's political system and have real expectations.
Hong Bopei called on the Chinese and US government to start from the most basic work, and the two countries need to carry out the most basic communication to ensure that there is no conflict.He suggested that the two sides formulate the agenda based on political restrictions and pragmatic, and understand that there will be a lot of future discussions about the future when the United States holds an election. Sometimes what politicians say on the stage, others may not agree.
He also emphasized that China and the United States must operate in restrictions.He said: "Unfortunately, our long -term considerations and short -term considerations are opposed. In the United States, the campaign cycle makes the situation more complicated ... This makes it difficult for the United States to move forward to the policy of consistent and uninteresting."
Chen Qingzhu then asked Jia Qingguo, how will China respond to the US campaign language during the election?
Jia Qingguo said that China takes a serious look at the campaign language during the US election because these languages can affect the policy.Especially for the campaign commitment, once the promise is promised, it must be put into action, even if it is only for political purposes, it will bring problems to Sino -US relations.
Jia Qingguo also quoted Hong Bopei as saying, "We also have politics."He explained that "our people will also be dissatisfied and urge the Chinese government to take a strong position in the United States."
Jia Qingguo reminded that when the United States continues to repeat certain campaign languages, people will begin to question the real intentions of the United States."As an expert, of course, we know that some campaign commitments are impossible, but most people do not know that some people do not understand the complex election procedures in the United States, which will cause problems."
