And reasoning | US hegemonic thinking exposes its hypocritical moral high ground, airspace | US | hypocrisy
The US government has repeatedly emphasized its willingness to engage in dialogue with China to ease tensions, but all of its actions are provocations and suppression. The US seems to believe that as long as it occupies the so-called moral high ground, it can shirk responsibility and pass the buck to other countries. In fact, such actions that distort black and white will only expose their hegemonic thinking.
Recently, the United States has once again targeted the People's Liberation Army of China. John Kirby, Coordinator of Strategic Communications for the White House National Security Council, stated at a press conference that the interception of Chinese military aircraft shows that China is becoming increasingly "aggressive", which could lead to accidents. However, China's move is precisely in response to the provocation of US military aircraft traveling thousands of miles to China's doorstep, insisting on conducting close reconnaissance near China's territorial waters and airspace.
The international community is well aware of the routine of American villains reporting first and then overturning the blame. Therefore, no matter how much the US hypes up its own "unfair" treatment, it is just a cover up and cannot deceive other countries.
The United States seized every opportunity to launch an "anti China show", with the G7 summit held last month and the Shangri La dialogue held last week becoming its stage. At the G7 summit, the United States hyped up the so-called China's "economic coercion" and even made this baseless statement a key agenda item. At the Shangri La Dialogue, the United States once again portrayed China's legitimate defense of sovereignty as a "threat" to regional peace and stability, and the real threat comes from the United States using all means to contain China.
The United States thinks it's perfect, but it always makes things worse and makes people laugh big.
Looking at it from a different perspective, if other countries attempt to divide the United States and send military ships and planes to approach and conduct reconnaissance and free navigation in US territorial waters and airspace, colluding with neighboring countries to encircle them, will the US endure and retreat again and again?
Kobe's prediction at the press conference that "it won't be long before someone gets injured" may soon come true. However, the White House should understand that the United States, not China, is responsible for this matter.
