Sino-US relations have fallen into a trough in recent years due to the hegemonic behavior of the United States. The United States has carried out all-round suppression of China in an attempt to hinder China's development. However, after several years of playing, the power gap between China and the United States has not widened, but has narrowed more and more. The U.S. strategy toward China has failed, and there are only two "cards" left, one of which is already vulnerable. In this context, former US Secretary of State Henry Kissinger, an old man who has just passed his 100th birthday, also chose to stand up and speak out, and put forward suggestions and warnings to the United States.
The United States' suppression of China is all-encompassing and all-encompassing, from science and technology, from system to strategy, from sovereignty to human rights. The United States believes that it is the boss of the world and has the right to interfere in China's internal affairs, to criticize China's system, to restrict China's development, and to challenge China's security. The United States believes that its actions are aimed at safeguarding its own interests and values, and to defend its own justice and morality.
However, these US practices have not only failed to achieve the desired results, but have brought huge losses and risks to themselves. On the ** side, the United States launched a ** war against China, trying to force China to make concessions, but it led to a serious impact on its own ** chain, soaring inflation and a difficult economy. In terms of science and technology, the United States has carried out a scientific and technological blockade on China in an attempt to deprive China of scientific and technological resources, but as a result, it has stimulated China's independent innovation, and China's scientific and technological level has improved rapidly, and the gap with the United States is getting smaller and smaller. In terms of system, the United States has unwarranted smear against China and tried to discredit China's political system, but its own double standards have been exposed, and the American democratic system has also been questioned at home and abroad. On the strategic front, the United States has strategically encircled China and tried to unite its allies against China, only to find that its allies are not reliable, China's military strength cannot be underestimated, and the strategic advantage of the United States no longer exists.
Under such circumstances, the United States no longer has many effective means to suppress China. There are only two "cards" left in the US strategy toward China, one is the "Taiwan card" and the other is the "science and technology card." However, these two "cards" are actually not very easy to use. The "science and technology card" requires the United States to maintain a clear advantage in the field of science and technology, but China has already caught up with or surpassed the United States in many fields, and if the United States plays the "science and technology card" again, it will not only fail to hurt China, but may also intensify Sino-US relations and affect cooperation between the two sides in other fields. The "Taiwan card" requires the United States to maintain a tough stance on the Taiwan Strait issue, but China's attitude on the Taiwan Strait issue is firm, and China's military superiority in the Taiwan Strait is overwhelming.
In this context, former US Secretary of State Henry Kissinger, an old man who has just passed his 100th birthday, also chose to stand up and speak out, and put forward suggestions and warnings to the United States. Kissinger is one of the most influential strategists in the history of the United States, who once contributed to the normalization of Sino-US relations, and he has a deep understanding and insight into the development of Sino-US relations. Kissinger pointed out in an article that the current world is facing a new environment, that is, a world that is the best because of the competition between China and the United States. Kissinger criticized the China policy of the United States, holding that what the United States is doing is wrong, self-righteous, and unjust. Kissinger warned the United States ** Biden that China does not want to rule the world, China just wants to ensure its own security, and the United States should not misunderstand China's intentions and should not unreasonably suppress China, but should engage in dialogue and cooperation with China to jointly maintain world stability and prosperity.
Kissinger's words are a reminder of the United States and a warning to the United States. The United States should heed Kissinger's advice, give up its erroneous ideas, stop suppressing China, shake hands with China, and restore peace to the world. This is what is in the interests of the United States and the world.
