Economic and trade cooperation between China and the United States is an important topic in the development of the world economy today. Recently, the resumption of cooperation between China and the United States in the field of agriculture has attracted widespread attention. Although the United States has repeatedly stated that it wants to "decouple" from China, the economic and trade relations between China and the United States are still very close. According to recent statistics, within 24 hours of the 7th meeting of the U.S.-China Joint Commission on Agriculture, China purchased 297,000 tonnes of soybeans, which is also a huge consumer market in China. This is taken very seriously all over the world.
China has become the world's largest exporter of soybeans. China needs more than 100 million tons of soybeans every year, but only about 30 million tons in China, and the lack of supply has become a problem that needs to be solved urgently. Most of the soybean exports are concentrated in North and South America, with the United States, Canada, Argentina and Brazil being the largest importers from China. From this point, it can be seen that China's large-scale procurement of US soybeans is not just a coincidence, but more out of the need for the market, and it is also an ordinary trading activity.
Unfortunately, just after China purchased large quantities of American soybeans from the United States, the United States began to impose a new round of economic sanctions on China. According to the observer**, the U.S. Congress approved a Defense Authorization Bill for Fiscal Year 2024, which would prevent the Department of Defense from acquiring batteries from six Chinese companies, but did not ask U.S. companies for purchasing anything from Chinese companies. Such double standards are the discrimination and injustice of the United States in its fight against China. The United States has been trying for years to prevent China from entering the chain of its defense industry in order to undermine China's development and influence, but all of its efforts have been at the expense of its own interests.
This accident once again proves that China's role in the world chain is so critical and irreplaceable. The United States tried to use a restraining order to stop China's economic growth, but its real effect was to backfire. China is the world's largest manufacturing country, with huge scale and high quality goods, and has formed a complete chain in the world. US politicians have lost their minds about China's understanding and their prejudices and stubbornness in China's policies, which has led to increasingly serious tensions between China and the United States.
Faced with a series of measures taken by the United States, China must take corresponding countermeasures to defend its national rights and interests. At the same time, we must have a firm strategy, not to be affected by the "enthusiasm" of the United States, and to unswervingly move forward to ensure that our pace of development will not be affected. Only with firm conviction can we gain a firm foothold on the world economic stage and achieve greater development. We firmly believe that through the joint efforts of both sides, China-US relations will surely embark on a more stable, healthy, and harmonious path.
In short, in today's increasingly complex world situation, it is very necessary to strengthen the economic development of China and the United States. In bilateral economic and trade activities, agriculture is an indispensable part of bilateral economic and trade activities. The resumption of agricultural cooperation projects between China and the United States has brought new opportunities for agricultural products between the two countries, as well as new vitality to the global economy and trade. We look forward to further deepening cooperation between China and the United States on the basis of mutual respect, equality and mutual benefit, deepening bilateral cooperation in the field of agriculture, and making positive efforts to maintain the stability and prosperity of the world agricultural market.
In the future development process, we must always adhere to the strategic determination, strengthen independent innovation, improve the quality of enterprises, and improve the value of enterprises to meet the growing market demand. On this basis, we will further strengthen China's integration and integration in the global industrial chain, share resources on the basis of globalization, enhance the competitiveness of enterprises, and achieve a win-win situation. Only by upholding the principles of openness, cooperation and win-win results can we embark on the path of sustainable development and promote prosperity and peace in the global economy.
Third, the development of China and the United States is not only an issue between the two countries, but also a matter of world peace and development. It is necessary to further deepen strategic exchanges, enhance mutual trust, and seek common development. Through dialogue, consultation, and cooperation, we will resolve differences and promote the stability and prosperity of the international community. I firmly believe that through the joint efforts of both sides, the relationship between China and the United States will become even better. Let's work together to create brilliance!
