The ambassador to South Korea's statement is not wrong, and he will definitely regret it in the future. He said, "Those who bet on the United States winning or China losing will have a regime | China | the United States."
The sentence by Chinese Ambassador to South Korea Xing Haiming is correct.
In May of last year, South Korean President Yoon Seok yeol was sworn in. A year has passed, and under his leadership, the once resilient and dynamic relationship between China and South Korea has reached a freezing point. Recently, there have been frequent diplomatic disputes.
Surrounded by the earnest advice of Chinese Ambassador to South Korea, Xing Haiming, the South Korean government was "furious", and Yoon Seok yeol even personally stepped down, angrily accusing the Chinese Ambassador of inappropriate remarks on South Korean policies.
What did the Chinese ambassador say to stimulate Yin Xiyue like this?
According to the official website of the Chinese Embassy in South Korea, Ambassador Xing Haiming stated during a meeting with Lee Jae ming, the leader of the South Korean Democratic Party, on the 8th that the Chinese government has always attached great importance to South Korea and China South Korea relations, and is wholeheartedly committed to developing good China South Korea relations. He has devoted a lot of effort to this. But currently, China South Korea relations are facing significant difficulties, and to be frank, the responsibility for this lies not with China.
He emphasized that China has always respected South Korea's core concerns, and South Korea should also respect China's core concerns.I hope that the South Korean side can abide by its commitments and truly respect China's core concerns on Taiwan and other issues.
According to a report by Yonhap News Agency, Ambassador Xing also said, "The United States is doing its best to suppress China. Some people bet that the United States will win and China will lose, which is clearly a misjudgment and a failure to see the historical trend clearly." "Those who bet on China now will definitely regret it in the future.".
The Governor of Chang'an Street noticed that Xing Haiming, the Chinese Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary to South Korea, is a diplomatic expert who has been engaged in Korean and North Korean diplomatic affairs for 20 years and has rich experience in this field.
Ambassador Xing's advice is reasonable, well founded, and requires the South Korean side to pay attention to China's legitimate needs and eliminate external interference when dealing with issues with China, which is not excessive.
Starting from the relationship between China and South Korea, and considering the actual situation of the South Korean side in every sentence. But even with such rational statements, there was a deafening sound of frogs in Seoul.
The next day, the South Korean side urgently summoned the Chinese ambassador and made a series of threatening remarks towards the Chinese ambassador. The diplomatic demeanor had long been thrown into thin air, leaving only the frustration and anger of taking the throne. It can be said that you can't wake up a person who pretends to sleep no matter what.
Since Yoon Seok yeol took office, the current South Korean government has completely abandoned its previous balanced foreign policy, and has engraved pro US and pro Japanese sentiment in its heart and implemented it in its actions.
South Korea not only cooperates with the United States on Taiwan related issues, demanding that China not "unilaterally change the status quo", but also cooperates with the United States in export controls on chips and semiconductors, and invites US nuclear submarines to enter the military.
Facing the boiling domestic grievances, he chose to side with the United States without any hesitation.
However, what is the United States doing when the Blue House is "infuriated"?
Recently, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken has repeatedly hoped to visit China; Before the Shangri La Dialogue, US Defense Minister Austin personally requested to meet with the Chinese Defense Minister at the meeting; White House spokesperson Kirby previously stated that President Biden also wants to have exchanges with Chinese leaders. Although still forming small circles in various fields to curb China's development, at least on the surface, Washington is urgently seeking to ease relations with China.
The other side of the ocean is busy restoring relations, while the neighbors at their doorstep have not yet woken up. The strategy of leaving no room for hindsight like the blue tile platform is truly eye opening. In the end, it is both unclear about the overall situation and lacks the art of governing from a historical perspective. It is simply ignorant and fearless.
Betting on Korean national transportation and betting on the United States, what do you get?
The United States has introduced the Inflation Reduction Act and the Chip Act, which have dealt a heavy blow to South Korean companies. During Yoon Seok yeol's visit to the United States, he not only dared not mention this, but also had to sing a song in front of Biden and perform on the spot.
Even such loyalty has not earned the trust of the United States, as American intelligence agencies have been monitoring South Korea.
In terms of trade with China, data released by the General Administration of Customs on May 9th showed that the total import and export value of goods trade in China increased by 5.8% year-on-year in the first four months of this year. Among them, exports increased by 10.6%; Imports increased by 0.02%; The trade surplus has expanded by 56.7%. Under the complex and severe external environment, foreign trade imports and exports have continued to show a positive trend, highlighting China's resilience in foreign trade.
However, South Korea, which was originally the first country to receive the moon, was unable to get a share of the pie. According to preliminary statistics released by the South Korean Customs Agency on May 22, as of the 20th of last month, South Korea's cumulative trade deficit this year was $29.548 billion, with exports plummeting. China has also transformed from South Korea's largest source of surplus to the largest deficit country.
South Korea's actions towards China are not only driven by the United States, but also due to strategic misjudgment. The Yin Xiyue regime's desperate bet on the United States winning and China losing will only lead South Korea's national fortune astray.
The Cato Institute in the United States has found that in recent years, the United States has generally shown that the mainland is the winner in military chess simulations on the Taiwan Strait issue. The Economist also points out that China is becoming an increasingly popular diplomatic partner. As a member of the BRICS countries, China supports developing countries in enhancing their independent development capabilities and strengthens relations with multiple African and Latin American countries. Among dozens of multilateral development banks worldwide, four are headquartered in China.
Russian President Putin once said that Asia is the region with the fastest economic development in the world, and China is the undisputed leader in the world and Asian economies.
Betting that China loses is actually an extension of the "China collapse theory". It has been proven that after so many years, China has accelerated its rise in this argument. China has proven the mistakes of those people with tangible achievements, and those who bet on China losing now will surely regret it in the future. This is precisely: the sound of apes on both sides cannot stop singing, and the light boat has already crossed ten thousand mountains.
As Ambassador Xing said, China and South Korea are inseparable neighbors and partners that cannot be separated. For thousands of years, the peoples of the two countries have learned and learned from each other, jointly creating a brilliant and splendid Eastern civilization. 31 years ago, both sides broke the ice of the Cold War, crossed ideological barriers, and established diplomatic relations. The original intention of establishing diplomatic relations was to support and achieve mutual success among neighbors, and to get along friendly. This has led to remarkable and fruitful achievements in cooperation between the two countries in various fields. From the past, present, and future, there are millions of reasons to improve China South Korea relations, and not a single reason to ruin them.
