Since the beginning of the Trump era, the United States has launched a series of "** wars" and "chip wars" against China, aiming to limit China's development, and even promulgating the so-called "chip science law" to suppress China's high-tech industry. Behind the "China is not allowed to change the status quo" is actually the concern and dissatisfaction of the United States with China's rise. The United States is trying to unite and put pressure on China by co-opting other countries to establish a system that excludes China in order to prevent China's development and rise. However, the United States faces various challenges and contradictions in its attempt to decouple from China. Although the United States verbally denies decoupling, in fact it cannot completely get rid of its dependence on Chinese components, especially in the field of advanced equipment, such as the American F-35 Lightning II fighter jet, which has to import parts and materials from China. This situation shows that in the face of China's rise, it is difficult for the United States to achieve complete decoupling and reverse the momentum of China's rise.
Against the backdrop of the United States not allowing China to change the status quo, the United States is trying to limit China's development through means such as "** war" and "chip war". However, this approach instead exposes the weakness of the United States, especially in the field of equipment. The reason why it is difficult for the United States to get rid of its dependence on Chinese parts and materials is, on the one hand, because China has a dominant position in the refining and export of global gallium materials, and on the other hand, it also highlights a series of dependence and contradictions accumulated by the United States in the process of globalization. In the face of China's technological superiority and industrial strength, the United States has found itself unable to unilaterally pressure China, let alone completely decouple. This dilemma has forced the United States to re-examine its China policy and think about how to safeguard its own interests while cooperating with China for a win-win situation.
The U.S. policy of "not allowing China to change the status quo" is essentially a countermeasure to China's rise. Through a series of restrictive measures, the United States has tried to stop China's development in order to maintain its position and influence in the global landscape. However, this policy of containment against China has not been as expected, and on the contrary, to a certain extent, it has exposed the shortcomings and dependence of the United States in the process of globalization. If the United States wants to maintain its leading position in the current international landscape, it must face up to China's rise and re-examine its own development strategy and China policy. In the face of the reality and challenges of China's rise, the United States needs to be more open and inclusive, seek the possibility of cooperation with China, and achieve mutual benefit and win-win results, so as to better cope with the challenges of the era of globalization.
Although the United States has tried to contain China's rise through a "decoupling" strategy, it has actually found itself facing enormous challenges. The problem of the dependence of the United States in the field of equipment, especially the reality that the F-35 fighter needs to import components and materials from China, makes it difficult to achieve complete decoupling from China. This situation not only exposes the fragile position of the United States in the global industrial chain, but also highlights its helplessness and weakness in the face of China's technological strength. The United States, having to import the required materials from China, has been unable to completely avoid contact and cooperation with China. Therefore, it will not be easy for the United States to completely decouple from China, and it must face up to this reality and seek a more pragmatic and cooperative policy path towards China.
3. The assistant secretary of the U.S. Air Force admitted that it is difficult to completely decouple: in the face of reality, it is necessary to re-examine the China policy.
US Air Force Assistant Secretary Hunt's statement openly acknowledges the reality that the United States cannot completely decouple China in the field of equipment. This statement not only reveals the contradictions and challenges existing in the US China policy, but also suggests that the US needs to re-examine its own development strategy and China policy. As China rises on the global stage, the United States must face up to reality, abandon outdated confrontational thinking, and seek more pragmatic and cooperative ways to engage with China. While maintaining its hegemonic status, the United States needs to recognize China's status and influence as a global power, and achieve mutual benefit and win-win results through cooperation, so as to better adapt to the challenges and opportunities of the era of globalization.
In the face of China's rise and changes in the global landscape, the United States should re-examine its China policy, abandon all non-cooperative measures, and seek a win-win cooperation with China. If the United States wants to achieve greater development and influence in the international landscape, it must face up to the reality of China's rise, combine its own advantages to carry out extensive cooperation with China, and promote the construction of a more open and inclusive international system. Only on the basis of mutual benefit and reciprocity can the United States and China achieve a truly win-win situation, jointly address the challenges of the era of globalization, and make positive contributions to world peace and prosperity.
The United States does not allow China to change the status quo and tries to contain China's development and rise through a series of restrictive measures and decoupling strategies. However, in the process of practice, the United States has found it difficult to achieve complete decoupling, especially in the field of equipment. China's technological and industrial prowess has put pressure on the United States to re-examine its China policy and seek ways to achieve win-win cooperation with China. In the face of the challenges and opportunities of the era of globalization, only through openness and cooperation and mutual benefit can the United States maintain its competitive advantage in the international landscape and make greater contributions to maintaining world peace and prosperity.
