It occurred in Jishishan County, Linxia Prefecture, Gansu Province 6After Level 2**, Russia became the first country to send condolences to China. This is not surprising, as China and Russia have always maintained a close partnership. During his visit to China, Prime Minister Mishustin expressed his condolences to the Chinese side as soon as the incident occurred, and expressed condolences to the victims on behalf of Putin. In addition, Russia** is ready to provide all possible assistance, including sending experts and equipment from the Ministry of Emergency Situations to support China's earthquake relief efforts. This reflects Russia's sincere friendship with China and its confidence in China's response to the disaster.
It is worth mentioning that Russia's condolences and support in this event also let people see a new height of Sino-Russian cooperation. The partnership between China and Russia is not only reflected in the political and economic spheres, but also in the sincere friendship of mutual support and mutual assistance in times of disaster. The development of this friendship has also provided a solid foundation for the further deepening of relations between the two countries.
In addition to Russia, China has also received condolences from the United States and Israel to **. Although the Chinese side did not specifically mention which US and Israeli leaders expressed their condolences, this also shows that the US and Israel have expressed their condolences to the Chinese side in different ways. This unexpected condolence shows that the spirit of a community with a shared future for mankind has been more profoundly embodied in the face of disasters. Friendly relations and mutual support between different countries set an example of a common response to disasters.
This condolence also once again proves the international community's recognition and concern for China. As a country with the world's second largest economy, China has received condolences and support from all countries in the world in the face of disasters. This recognition of China by the international community not only reflects China's important position in global affairs, but also demonstrates China's responsibility to actively participate in global governance and maintain global stability.
However, in the list of condolences released by the Chinese side, the number of condolences from ASEAN countries is relatively small. Only Vietnam, Thailand, Cambodia and Laos have expressed their condolences to China, while Brunei, Indonesia, Malaysia, Myanmar, the Philippines and Singapore are not on the list.
This comes as a surprise, especially given the close economic ties and deepening ties between China and ASEAN countries in recent years. China and ASEAN have been each other's largest partners for three consecutive years, and the two sides have extensive cooperation in the economic, security, and people-to-people fields. However, in the face of this disaster, ASEAN countries did not express their condolences to China at the first time, which is somewhat unreasonable in terms of etiquette.
Nevertheless, the position of ASEAN countries can be understood. ASEAN has always emphasized maintaining a neutral and objective stance and maintaining a balance among major powers. They are reluctant to take sides in international affairs, and they do not want to be exploited or drawn into any conflict. This stance also reflects the attitude of ASEAN countries in their desire to conduct international relations in a commercial and rational manner.
Although there may be some omissions in the condolence list, it doesn't matter. Importantly, more and more countries are sending their condolences to China in different ways, which reflects China's growing influence on the international stage.
In the context of globalization, China has enhanced its soft power by building partnerships with different countries. China's economic growth and globalization strategy have made China play an increasingly important role in international affairs. Despite the many challenges, China is actively shaping its image and working to elevate its position in international affairs.
Adversity sees the truth, and this disaster has made people see the recognition and support of the international community for China. Regardless of whether there were differences and contradictions in the past, the international community is now actively expressing its condolences to China, which reflects China's important position and increased influence in global affairs.
In general, the countries and organizations on the condolence list, although there may be some unusual, do not affect China's growing influence in the international community. In the face of disasters, the friendship and support of all countries are precious, which demonstrate the spirit of a community with a shared future for mankind, and also reflect China's social status and international image.
