Today I read an article in which I said that I do not understand why the Chinese oppose the Russian gas pipeline Power of Siberia 2 passing through Mongolia.
The reason is that in the context of Outer Mongolia's comprehensive anti-China and Russian affairs, this pipeline is one of the few projects that can contain Outer Mongolia; The distance over which natural gas is transmitted is shortened; Furthermore, Outer Mongolia seeks a balance between the West and China and Russia, and will not completely turn to the West;
The article believes that we do not have many means at our disposal to Outer Mongolia, and we cannot prohibit Outer Mongolia from using the port of Tianjin, because that would be contrary to the UN Charter.
For this article, the netizens' follow-up post disputed this, and the points of contention are as follows:
One. Resolutely do not pass through Outer Mongolia.
Some netizens commented: "Why do you want to go to Outer Mongolia? He can't jump up in that place, what's the use of it falling to the west? "The implication is that he can't jump up without going through Outer Mongolia."
But as soon as it passes through Outer Mongolia, it may jump up, and there is a post saying: "You see the Russian pipeline to Europe passing through Ukraine, you will know!" "In the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, Ukraine did take the lead in closing the valve of a branch line of the "brother line" through its territory, and the daily gas transmission capacity of the line reached more than 30 million cubic meters of natural gas per day, and in the end Nord Stream was blown up, Russia and Europe can only be transported through this line, and Russia transports 100 million cubic meters of natural gas per day, so it is stuck by Ukraine.
Distrust of Mongolia's westward move has led netizens to resolutely oppose the passage of Power of Siberia 2 through Mongolia.
Two. About the use of Tianjin Port.
Regarding the provisions of the UN Charter, Mongolia can use Tianjin Port, and netizens followed more posts: "Tianjin Port is Chinese, why lease it to it!" "Britain is under pressure from the United States and would rather harm itself than give up Huawei 5G, what do you understand? "Why can't it be banned, it is already endangering China's security, and the ban should be completely deserved!" ”…
It seems that netizens are very angry about Mongolia and the West, but I can't know whether Mongolia's lease of Tianjin Port belongs to the provisions of the UN Charter.
Three. About the Charter of the United Nations.
In the post, netizens are dissatisfied with the UN Charter, and some posts say: "The UN Charter, what is it." ”
This is about the same as netizens' comments about the recent scandal of the United Nations in charge of UNRWA, but the United Nations is the United Nations, and the Charter is the Charter, two different things.
Four. About Power of Siberia II.
It is reported that the Power of Siberia 2 is the largest project under negotiation between China and Russia, with an annual gas transmission capacity of 50 billion cubic meters, comparable to the "Nord Stream", after the Prime Minister of Mongolia revealed that the project will start in 2024; The Russian Deputy Prime Minister also believes that the project is being actively promoted; On the contrary, the Chinese side is not in a hurry.
When the Russian-Ukrainian war continues and the world is in turmoil, it is also best to invest in such a huge project to calm the brakes, and how are the comments of netizens not fist-hearted.
