According to Beijing**, a spokesman for the China Coast Guard issued a statement on the Philippines' airdrop of supplies to the illegal "beach"**.
Gan Yu, spokesman for the China Coast Guard, said that recently, a small Philippine aircraft airdropped supplies to the illegal "beaching"**, and the Chinese Coast Guard followed the monitoring in real time, controlled and disposed of it in accordance with laws and regulations, and made temporary special arrangements for the Philippine side to supply necessary daily necessities. The relevant Philippine side has disregarded the facts, maliciously hyped up, and deliberately misled the international perception, which is not conducive to easing tensions in the South China Sea. We are urging the Philippines to stop provocative speculation, and the China Coast Guard will strengthen rights protection and law enforcement at Ren'ai Jiao and its adjacent waters, and resolutely defend national sovereignty and maritime rights and interests.
According to the Philippine defense secretary, Japan and the Philippines are planning to formally sign a "reciprocal access agreement" this year. After the agreement was implemented, Japan also had similar military cooperation documents with Australia, the United Kingdom, and the Philippines.
Obviously, the United States is encouraging Asia-Pacific countries that have bilateral military cooperation with itself to sign similar military cooperation agreements with each other, and in fact to build a framework similar to NATO in the Asia-Pacific region, while the Philippines is willing to act as a "**."
As a NATO, a "small Asia-Pacific NATO," the United States seems to be dealing with China in the same way as the Soviet Union, but the actual situation is completely different.
Recently, NATO's military alliance, led by the United States, has set its sights on the Asia-Pacific region, trying to move a model similar to the Ukraine crisis to this strategic location. At the same time, the Philippines, as a key player in the Asia-Pacific region, has also made a clear statement on this issue, showing a position that has nothing to do with the great power game. China responded to this development, stressing that the Asia-Pacific should not become a battlefield for political games.
NATO's "Ukraine model" essentially forces neighboring countries to tend to join or cooperate with NATO by exaggerating the military threat of a certain power. Under this expansionist strategy, local conflicts could escalate into regional conflicts, as is the case with the Russia-Ukraine conflict.
The other day, NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg paid a visit to the United States. He hopes to convince some politicians in the United States to support the bill to continue providing aid to Ukraine.
In an interview with Fox News, Stoltenberg said: "It is important that Ukraine continues to be supported, because we need to realize that this is being closely watched by Beijing." ”
Perhaps feeling that his words were not convincing enough, Stoltenberg later added: "So if Putin gets what he wants in Ukraine, it will make not only Europe more vulnerable, but all of us, including the United States." ”
**Spokesperson Mao Ning presided over the regular press conference. A reporter asked about the NATO Secretary-General's statement on China's issue of Ukraine.
In this regard, Mao Ning pointed out that unlike NATO, China has never interfered in the internal affairs of other countries. China's position on the Ukraine issue is very clear and consistent. NATO should put away this trick of exaggerating tensions, interfering in the internal affairs of other countries, and seeking to expand its own power, stop distorting and smearing China, stop inciting confrontation, and do something tangible for peace and stability in Europe.
Looking at the whole world, NATO, as the most powerful military organization, can be said to be devastating and sweeping away the leaves in the autumn wind when it fights most countries, and only China is qualified to make NATO seriously prepare for war.
What NATO countries say about "there may be a war in five years" is true, but it is not with Russia, but against China. Although the purpose of the existence of NATO, a military organization, was aimed at the Warsaw Pact, and NATO should have disappeared with it after the collapse of the Soviet Union, in order to maintain its military influence in Europe, the United States made NATO regard Russia as an enemy and began to expand eastward step by step.
At a regular press conference held by China's Ministry of National Defense recently, a reporter asked Senior Colonel Wu Qian, spokesman for the Ministry of National Defense. NATO began to hold a large-scale military exercise for more than four months, with more than 90,000 troops participating, and this reporter hopes to know how China views NATO's largest military exercise since the Cold War.
In response to the large-scale military exercises held by NATO, the Chinese side made the most solemn statement, and Senior Colonel Wu Qian directly rebuked NATO by name, believing that NATO is a walking war machine, and the reason for this statement is also based on various considerations.
A few days ago, Dai Qi, the representative of the United States, publicly stated that tariffs are not the only strategy of the United States to deal with China, and Dai Qi is responding to Trump's remarks in the sprint to 2024. Trump publicly said at the campaign rally that if he is elected, he will impose 60% tariffs on all Chinese goods, in fact, it is not difficult to see from Tai Qi's remarks that the United States has suppressed China in many areas in order to prevent China's rise.
Later, NATO held a meeting of NATO defense ministers in Brussels, Belgium, and just before the NATO defense ministers' summit, NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg had already made a war letter to China.
NATO is the hegemonic bloc's largest and most effective strategic tool. Now, the hegemon has launched a strategic competition against China, and a new Cold War between China and the United States has officially begun, but this new Cold War is by no means just a matter between China and the United States, and NATO will not and cannot be a bystander or a spectator. Under the manipulation and domination of the United States, NATO is bound to turn its spearhead more and more strongly at China and adopt more and more hostile policies and actions against China. NATO is destined to become China's strategic enemy, and this is the inevitable outcome of the in-depth development of the new Cold War.
Just a few days ago, Putin gave an interview to Russian TV correspondent Pavel Zarubin. He said in an interview:
I don't think NATO is already of any use, it doesn't make any sense. There is only one meaning - it is an instrument of American foreign policy. ”
As the supreme leader of the so-called world's second military power, Putin's words and deeds have long attracted the attention of the international community, and his statement is very easy to cause an uproar in the international community.
So, when Putin swore that NATO was useless, the international community couldn't help but start thinking about it.
According to the report, Putin also commented on the recent remarks of the former US ** Trump that European countries should pay "protection money" to the United States. "Let them solve it themselves, it's their own problem," Putin said. From his (Trump's) point of view, though, there may be some logic. There is no logic in this from the point of view of the Europeans, who want the United States to continue to perform without compensation certain functions that have been formed since the creation of NATO. It's their business. ”
"If the Americans think that they do not need this tool, it is their decision," Putin concluded. ”
In general, China's relationship with the Warsaw Pact and NATO can be seen as a microcosm of the international political landscape during the Cold War. In this process, China has always adhered to its own path, actively participated in international affairs, and promoted world peace and development. Now, as the international landscape continues to change, China will continue to play a constructive role and contribute to building a more harmonious and just world.
This forgotten history teaches us that cooperation and confrontation between nations are eternal themes in international relations. In this process, upholding independence and safeguarding national interests is the fundamental prerequisite for the development of every country. China's performance in this process undoubtedly provides a valuable reference for the world.
