Suddenly, the witness to Sino-US relations, former US Secretary of State Henry Kissinger, passed away at the age of 100. Kissinger was a German-born Jew who later emigrated to the United States. He was appreciated by Nixon for his outstanding talent and unique vision, and became a key figure in Sino-American relations. During Nixon's tenure, Kissinger brought two major diplomatic achievements to the United States: the end of the Vietnam War, which lasted for more than a decade, and the restoration of ties with China, and Nixon's historic visit to China. Kissinger was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for his outstanding negotiations with Vietnam.
In the 70s of the last century, the United States was faced with a very difficult situation. The Vietnam War bogged down the United States, and Middle Eastern oil-producing countries banded together against the United States, leading to an energy crisis and causing the U.S. economy to stagnate. In this predicament, Kissinger made a bold proposal to Nixon to restore ties with China. Although China and the United States were once for tat enemies, Kissinger believes that in the face of national interests, there are no permanent enemies and no permanent friends. He secretly flew to Beijing in July 1971 to negotiate with high-level Chinese officials, laying a solid foundation for Nixon's visit to China, the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and the United States, and Sino-US cooperation. Kissinger's many visits to China have played an important role in consolidating Sino-US relations.
However, in the past two years, Sino-US relations have once again faced challenges and difficulties. The two sides were at loggerheads for a while, and relations were tense to the point of saber rattling. Dr. Kissinger, who is almost 100 years old, still flew to Beijing to communicate with the Chinese high-level in disregard of his personal health, expressing his sincerity in easing Sino-US relations. Dr. Kissinger's death is a major loss in the history of Sino-US relations, but fortunately, there are now signs of easing in Sino-US relations, rekindling hopes for Sino-US cooperation.
China is a peace-loving country and does not want to be an enemy of any country. However, some American politicians now regard China as their biggest adversary and enemy, and are trying to force China to submit through containment and coercion. Such choices and actions are doomed to failure. Today's American politicians should Xi humbly learn from Kissinger, the politician of the older generation, and truly understand the good intentions of their predecessors. A country cannot be strong forever, nor can it survive for a long time by bullying the weak. China is not a country that is afraid of power, and only through cooperation can we achieve a win-win situation.
The incident sparked widespread online discussion. Many people have recalled Kissinger's contributions to Sino-US relations and regarded him as a symbol of Sino-US friendship. Some people hope that China and the United States will bear in mind Kissinger's spirit, resolve differences through communication and cooperation, and avoid falling into hostile confrontation. Others are concerned about the current tensions between China and the United States, calling for both sides to remain calm and resolve issues through dialogue and compromise.
This incident has gained huge attention and heated discussions on the Internet. People expressed deep condolences over Kissinger's death, and at the same time were full of expectations for the development of Sino-US relations. Many people have expressed their views on the direction of China-US relations, and some believe that China and the United States should promote the development of bilateral relations on the basis of cooperationSome people are also concerned about the uncertainty of China-US relations and call on the two sides to strengthen communication and avoid escalation of conflict.

Kissinger's death is a great loss to the friendly exchanges between China and the United States, but it has also made people renew the importance of cooperation and peace between China and the United States.
