In today's world, many countries uphold the principles of courtesy and mutual respect in handling diplomatic relations, but the United States and Britain have attracted attention with their special attitudes. Recently, Biden and British Prime Minister Sunak have been treatedInternationalThe guest adopted an impudent attitude, which makes one wonder if this behavior is in line with itInternationalBasic etiquette for intercourse. This article will explore this phenomenon**.
Prior to this, Argentina and Greece, as two countries with special relations with the United States and the United Kingdom, were also treated unfairly by the United States and the United Kingdom. Argentina's new ** Millet went to the United States for his first foreign trip, but was taken by the United States *** adviserSullivanReceived, without being received in person by Biden. This situation has sparked a lot of controversy, especially since Milley has publicly criticized Biden's remarks, which may be one of the reasons why Biden is reluctant to meet. Similarly, Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis was not received by Prime Minister Rishi Sunak during his visit to the UK, because Mitsotakis had previously asked Sunak that Greece wanted Britain to return the Greek sculptures in the British Museum. These examples are reminiscent of the rude attitude of the United States and Britain towards their guests, which is rare.
Why would the United States and Britain be so rude to their guests?We can analyze it from two levels: one is personal factors, and the other is national interests.
From a personal point of view, Biden's reasons for the delay in receiving Milley may be multifaceted. First, Milley had unfriendly remarks about Biden, criticizing Biden's policies and values. Second, Milley has been jokingly called the "Argentine Trump," which could be an insult to Biden. Moreover, Biden may be busy with other important matters, such as attending the funerals of famous people, etc., so he does not have time to meet Milley. A similar inference can be inferred about Sunak's reasons for not meeting Mitsotakis, perhaps because Sunak was not satisfied with Mitsotakis' request before his visit to the UK.
From the point of view of national interests, the United States and Britain are undoubtedly the great powers in the world, and when dealing with other countries, they can use their strength and position to exert a certain amount of pressure and influence. As a result, their attitude towards guests may depend more on their own interests, and they may choose not to meet guests who are not in their own interests to show their position.
