“US-China relations, before Mao-Nixon”… Chinese frenzy over’first encounter conflict’

At the high-level US-China talks held in Alaska, USA on the 18th (local time), major Chinese media broadcasts the news in real time, showing keen interest. After the inauguration of the U.S. administration, the public opinion in China, which was “half concerns and half expectations,” at the meeting of the first diplomatic heads after the inauguration of the U.S. administration, is intensified as the two sides wage a “brawl battle” from the beginning.

The state-run CCTV reported, “The US side exceeded the allotted time to speak and made an unreasonable attack and criticism on Chinese policy,” citing a spokesman for the Chinese delegation, saying, “This is an act that violates diplomatic customs.” In addition, it quickly delivered news that the diplomatic dinner schedule, which had been scheduled between the two countries after the first meeting for about 90 minutes, had been canceled through local broadcasts.

Xinhua news agency said Wang Yi gave a great deal of remarks in all of the meetings of the foreign minister. Director Wang Yi said, “At the invitation of the United States, I came to Alaska, which is located between the United States and China.” Said. Director Wang Yi said, “China announced sanctions on Hong Kong just before leaving the country to participate in high-level strategic dialogue, which is not a normal hospitality method,” said Wang Yi. “If the US wants to increase its superiority over China through this, it is a complete miscalculation and weakness. It only reveals power and helplessness.” The displeasure of China was revealed without filtering.

Such an atmosphere was announced the day before. The US State Department said on the 16th (local time) that “the reorganization of the Hong Kong election system, which was recently passed at the National People’s Congress of China, has greatly damaged Hong Kong’s autonomy.” . In an unusual case, the NPC’s commerce committee issued a statement and criticized “It is a very violent and violent move for the US side to intervene in Chinese internal affairs under the pretext of the Hong Kong issue.”

The state-run recovery time, which gives a glimpse into the atmosphere of the Chinese government, has taken a step further. “This meeting is strategic communication, not a stage in which the United States exerts unilateral pressure,” through a paper review on the 19th, criticizing that “the advantage that the United States thinks can have no effect on China’s core interests.” Will China revert the Hong Kong security law or will it withdraw the Hong Kong election law determined by the NPC? did.

“The United States is completely misjudged about China,” he said. “China has no ambition to exert its geopolitical influence in the Asia-Pacific region, and the United States must understand China’s way of governing differently from the West.”

In an interview with Hwangu Sibo, senior researcher at the Institute for International Affairs in China, Si-wi Yang diagnosed “the worst situation since the handshake between Mao Zedong and Richard Nixon,” and that “China-US relations are at a crossroads.” “There are only two ways in the future. Going back to the situation before the establishment of diplomatic relations, or the Cold War or War.” This reflects the prospects of Chinese experts that the conflict between the two countries, which began under the former Trump administration, has reached the edge of a cliff, and that China will not withdraw any further.

The analysis analyzed that the reason the United States comes out with a strong attitude is to break through the pressure of Chinese critics in the country. “Because if China abandons the talks, it can prove that’conversation is useless’, and if it keeps the talks, at least it can prove that the current government is right to the forces in the United States that are opposed to the talks.” The high-level talks between the two countries will continue until the morning of the 20th.
