The United States ranks first in the world in terms of overall strength, mainly based on its strong economic and military strength. The United States usually uses three tricks to put pressure on disobedient countries. The first is to use the hegemony of the dollar to hit the target country by means such as blockading the economy and freezing assets. Second, the U.S. will attack each other's strengths, such as restricting oil exports to suppress Iran's wealth and economic development. Third, the United States will flex its force, such as having twelve carrier battle groups and advanced warplanes, to maintain superiority at sea and in the air.
However, the influence of the United States has declined in recent years. In addition to the economic impact of the epidemic, the bipartisan struggle has also hindered the development of the United States in all aspects. Some states even have the idea of seceding from independence, especially Texas. If the U.S. really does, this could be an opportunity for China, because China can have more time to develop its own power and gain more voice in the international community. However, the United States** is not entirely in favor of China.
The U.S. presence has kept some small, restless countries relatively stable, knowing that if they exceed the U.S. bottom line, they will be warned and sanctioned. Although China has the strength to counterbalance these countries, it is more concerned with its own development than it is about challenging other countries. In addition, the United States, as the global leader, needs to use force from time to time to demonstrate its authority in order to maintain its position. To sum up, the United States is still the first in the world, but its influence has declined. The U.S. may create opportunities for China, but it may also pose some challenges for China.
China is more concerned with its own development than it is about challenging other countries. The U.S. Presence: Keeping the Peace or Balancing Power? There is a saying in the world that China has always emphasized that "peace is precious" and will not take the initiative to provoke war. However, some countries may have a misunderstanding of China's power and believe that without U.S. constraints, China may not hesitate to start a war and invade the territory of other countries. Is this view correct?
First of all, we must admit that the presence of the United States in international affairs does play a certain deterrent role. As one of the most powerful military forces in the world, the existence of the United States can make some small countries shy away from provoking easily. This is beneficial for maintaining peace and stability in the region. Second, although the current relations between China and Russia are friendly, if the United States is lost as a common adversary, Russia may regard China as its greatest rival and take targeted measures. After all, relations between countries are often based on interests.
Without U.S. checks and balances on China and Russia, tensions between the two countries could escalate, creating instability for the entire world. However, we also cannot simply assert that the presence of the United States is good for China or other countries. In fact, international relations are complex and volatile, and the existence of a country can bring both benefits and troubles. We must realize that US intervention in some international affairs is often criticized as interference in the internal affairs of other countries, and such an act will cause many controversies.
In addition, if we think about it from a different perspective, if the United States happens, will it be good or bad for China or other countries? This is a question worth pondering. The United States may lead to a geopolitical realignment, bringing uncertainty to the world landscape, but at the same time, it may also provide more opportunities and space for other countries. After all, a strong and internally united country often becomes a restraining force for other countries. To sum up, the existence of the United States has indeed played a certain role in maintaining world peace and stability.
However, we cannot simply see it as the only counterbalance, nor can we ignore the confusion and controversy it can bring. The relationship between countries is complex and changeable, and we should understand and evaluate it with an open mind. Most importantly, we should take into account the legitimate interests of other countries while pursuing our own interests, and work together to build a more stable and prosperous world based on peace and cooperation.
