The more debts are piled up, the more military spending must be increasedExerting maximum pressure on China is the biggest "political correctness" of the two parties in the United States. Biden signed the 2024 National Defense Authorization Act, which was collectively criticized by the Chinese National People's Congress, the Ministry of National Defense, the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council and other departments, and he could not have illusions about the United States.Hello audience friends, welcome to watch Xu Xudao:
The Sino-US summit some time ago gave the outside world signs of easing Sino-US relations, and then military exchanges between China and the United States gradually resumed, and relations between the two countries seem to have stabilized. But we know that the United States has always been the United States, and in the foreseeable future, the United States will never sit idly by and watch China's peaceful rise.
Recently, Biden signed the "National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2024" into law, which was collectively criticized by the Chinese National People's Congress, the Ministry of National Defense, the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council and other institutions and departments. So why is the United States stalking China in today's world?Why does the United States, despite its high debts, increase its military spending by a large amount and use military force?Let's take a closer look:
We know that the United States is the most militarily powerful, the most expensive and the most belligerent country in the world, and 90 percent of the time since its founding more than 200 years ago has been spent in foreign wars. The United States considers itself the world hegemon, and a large part of its annual defense budget is spent on overseas expansion. In the 2024 fiscal year National Defense Authorization Act, there is a lot of content to suppress China.
First, the bill continues to promote strategic competition with China, exaggerate the so-called China threat, and promote decoupling from China in key areas. Such a move has violated the consensus reached between China and the United States at the summit in San Francisco in November, and has therefore met with resolute opposition from China.
During this period of time, the United States has indeed said a lot of "soft words" in order to resume exchanges with China, and Biden has repeatedly said that he will not seek decoupling from China. But we know that the promises of Western politicians are not worth much, and the National Defense Authorization Act for fiscal year 2024 is the real embodiment of the strategic intent of the United States.
Second, the bill also mentions the need to "fully arm Taiwan's armed forces" and enhance Taiwan's "self-defense capability." At the same time, the bill also publicly called for the first time to strengthen cybersecurity cooperation with Taiwan. In the last two Sino-US summits, the United States ** Biden promised China that he would not support Taiwan's "independence", but subsequent facts proved that the United States has been manipulating the Taiwan issue and using Taiwan as a trump card to create trouble for China.
Therefore, Wu Qian, spokesman for the Chinese Ministry of National Defense, pointed out that the US proposal unjustifiably exaggerates the so-called "threat of China's affairs", grossly involves China's internal affairs, and seriously undermines China's sovereignty, security and development interests. The US manipulation of the Taiwan issue is a very dangerous "bet" behavior. We demand that the US stop arming Taiwan and stop "using Taiwan to contain China".
Therefore, what the United States has done has completely proved one thing, the United States is still the arrogant and domineering United States.
At present, the United States is still the world's largest economic and military power, and China must not close itself off from the rest of the world, but still try its best to maintain exchanges with the United States. However, on major issues concerning the future and destiny of our country, we must not have any illusions about the United States, otherwise we may make crucial and subversive mistakes.
The United States is hostile to China, first of all, because of its practical interests. The United States believes that the only country in the world today that has the potential to challenge the United States in the economic and military spheres is China. Although China has no such intentions, for the United States, it is impossible for others to snore on the side of the couch unless China abandons its own development path and completely surrenders to the United States.
Just like US Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin demanded that China immediately disarm 1 million, destroy aircraft carriers and Dongfeng missiles, and stop developing high technology. If China is unwilling to abandon its martial arts, the United States will never stop encircling and suppressing China.
Before the outbreak of the Sino-US war, Sino-US relations had maintained a state of fighting but not breaking for a long time, and the cooperation between the two countries was far more than now. But even Kissinger only opposes that radical approach, not against the United States to contain China's development, he just has a different way of thinking about containing China, and that's it.
Second, the hostility of the United States to China is also related to changes in its own strength. Under normal circumstances, when the imperialist countries are declining in strength and when the gap between them and their competitors is getting smaller and smaller, they will be very anxious and will adopt all kinds of means to maintain their hegemonic status.
The United States, which is on a downward slope, tends to be extreme in its foreign policy and will adopt more means of war. In order to achieve its goal of containing China, the United States has been constantly creating incidents around China, and the more chaotic China is, the more stable the United States will be. China's "One Belt, One Road" initiative to build a community with a shared future for mankind can defuse the United States' attempt to encircle and suppress China.
To put it simply, the United States cannot understand China's idea of valuing peace, because the United States does not understand the truth that "although the world is big, belligerent will perish," nor does it know how to respect other countries, and cannot see countries with different cultures and systems from its own, let alone accept the development and growth of such countries. Unless China stops developing, whatever China does will be wrong in the eyes of the United States.
There is an old Chinese saying that "the husband is not guilty, but he is guilty". How can the United States, which has dominated the world for decades, tolerate China's continuous development and growth in all aspects.
On the core issue of Taiwan, Chinese mainland must rapidly improve its own strength, especially military strength. There must be enough strength to make the United States retreat in the face of difficulties. We cannot be under the illusion that the United States will not interfere in the great cause of China's reunification, nor can we be under the illusion that the United States will have a conscience. Only when China becomes more and more powerful, to the point that the United States feels that it cannot confront it, will he conscientiously abide by the one-China policy.
