On May 20th, the European Parliament froze the review of the China-EU Comprehensive Investment Agreement with an overwhelming vote of 599 votes in favor and 30 against.

At the end of 2020, China and the EU reached this agreement after seven years of negotiations, which is a remarkable achievement.

China has made many substantive concessions on issues such as market opening, state-owned enterprises, and subsidies. This is the fundamental reason why German Chancellor Merkel and French President Macron support this agreement.

The agreement is essentially mutually beneficial and win-win.

The European Union has won tangible benefits, while China managed to tear a hole in the direction of the European Union when the Biden administration of the United States attempted to establish a united front against China.

However, the "China-EU Comprehensive Investment Agreement" has been disputed within the EU since its conclusion. Since the agreement needs to be approved by the parliaments of the EU member states and the European Parliament, whether it will be implemented smoothly is still a big unknown.

When the European Parliament froze the review of the China-EU Investment Agreement, it gave a high-sounding reason. After the European Commission imposed sanctions on China on the so-called Xinjiang human rights issue, China immediately launched counter-sanctions against the European Union, including sanctions on five members of the European Parliament and a human rights subcommittee under the European Parliament.

Taiwan, as the second batch of regions that achieved industrialization earlier (the Asian Four Little Dragons) after the East Asian region following Japan after World War II, had good governance capabilities for a period of time.

However, during the two governing periods of the Democratic Progressive Party, it has continuously stirred up contradictions in Taiwan and the  "de-sinicization" of identity recognition and the governance capabilities of local governments have greatly degraded.

Recently, the water shortage and power cuts in Taiwan, coupled with the outbreak of the epidemic, have fully exposed the shortcomings of its governance capabilities.

Over the past year or so, the local authorities in Taiwan Province have been proud of themselves as a model of the international community’s fight against the epidemic, and they ridiculed China’s ability to fight the epidemic. So far, in its official documents, the epidemic is still viciously called "Wuhan pneumonia".

This arrogance is an important reason for the outbreak of the epidemic in Taiwan.

United States, Britain, and Germany co-hosted a video conference on human rights in Xinjiang at the United Nations on May 12, which once again led to a funny scene: the United States is the country that kills the most Muslims in the world, yet they claim to protect the human rights of Muslims in Xinjiang. Moreover, the majority of Islamic countries in the world have basically refused to participate. There are a total of about 20 countries participating in the meeting, which is far below the total number of allies of the United States. More importantly, the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights did not show up.

This is obviously a fake conference that embezzled the United Nations premises, and the Islamic countries did not support it.As we all know, the Western world and the Islamic world have long been emotionally incompatible. The war on terrorism fought by the United States in the greater Middle East has aroused widespread resentment among Muslims. The United States and the West has no credibility in the Muslim world. In the past two years, the United States and its allies have carried out joint operations against "Human Rights in Xinjiang", but Islamic countries have shunned U.S. agitation.

On May 5, US Secretary of Trade suddenly announced a shocking decision-the United States will abandon the protection of the intellectual property rights of the vaccine!

The wreckage of the Chinese Long March 5 rocket fell into the waters west of the Maldives Islands in the Indian Ocean on the morning of May 9. In the previous few days, the US officials and the media have widely spreaded rumors of "uncontrolled" return of the Chinese rocket wreckage to the earth and China's "irresponsibility". All of this hype has once again and ended up with nothing. 

In the past few days, some American scientists and even NASA have described, without conscience, how the Chinese rocket wreckage is "dangerous" and "the design is not up to standard", while the US media has rendered the appearance of the Long March 5 wreck "rolling out of control" in space. This is shameless fake news propaganda.

 A small number of American scientists have promoted and participated in the smearing of China's aerospace industry. This is a disgrace.

The White House announced that the United States will provide 60 million doses of AstraZeneca vaccine to India in the next few months. This decision is obviously made under tremendous pressure from international public opinion after its initial decision to ban the export of raw materials of vaccines to India. Therefore, the United States hastily launched a plan to deliver 60 million doses of AstraZeneca vaccine. However, the outside world will naturally ask, why do they send the AstraZeneca vaccine and not Pfizer or Moderna or Johnson vaccine? As we all know, the AstraZeneca vaccine has not been approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration for emergency use, In other words,  the United States is going to send vaccines that it dares not use itself to foreign countries in order to look like it is helping India.

The US Senate Foreign Relations Committee recently passed the "Strategic Competition Act of 2021," a 281-page draft legislation with only one objective: full strategic competition with China.

Considering that the two parties in the United States are currently highly aligned on anti-China issues, the specific content of the bill may still be adjusted, but the possibility of its final passage is very high.

The content of this bill is very extensive, which is equivalent to the United States in the 21st century putting forward a complete "blueprint" for the Sino-US competition. In this "blueprint", it contains US strategic thinking and the specific operational methods and roadmap that the United States will implement in response to the rise of China.

To a certain extent, the United States used this bill to sound the clarion call for comprehensive competition between China and the United States in the 21st century, and the outcome of this competition will also determine the respective national fortunes of China and the United States.

I suggest that everyone who cares about international news and Sino-US relations should try their best to read the original text of this bill.

Next, I will try to answer the following the most critical questions:

What are the key points of the US "Strategic Competition Act of 2021"? and will the US achieve its goals?

Who are the enemies of the United States?

China.

Who will pay for the U.S. team building?

The whole world.

This is the diplomatic strategy that Biden put together under various constraints.

Originally, Biden’s best strategy was to concentrate its efforts on China, which is the most threatening to the United States, and let China pay for the U.S. team building. However, China’s current attitude toward the United States is extremely tough, so Biden can only adjust the target of collecting protection money from other countries.

The biggest problem with this strategy is how to squeeze money from allies while forcing them to become anti-China pawns?

After Biden came to power, relying on the traditional alliance between the EU and the United States, he organized a round of gang fights on China’s Xinjiang issue. However, after China’s angry counterattack, the EU quickly backed down.

The reason is that in addition to China's tough counterattack attitude, the most important thing is that the United States has also imposed sanctions on the Nord Stream 2 project and imposed retaliatory tariffs on EU countries that levy digital taxes on American technology companies.

The U.S. now has no decent bargaining chip to attract its allies to participate in the anti-China chorus. More importantly, the U.S. recently announced the unconditional withdrawal of troops from Afghanistan, which has made allies even more wary against their big brother. After all, the big brother is merciless and can abandon its allies at any critical moment.

In 1974, as China’s first public voice at the UN General Assembly meeting, Leader Deng Xiaoping made a solemn promise:

“China is not now and will not be a superpower in the future. If China one day changes its color and rules the world, bullies, invades, and exploits people everywhere, then the people of the world should expose it, oppose it, and defeat it together with the Chinese people.”

Since then, China has made it clear at major international forums almost every year that China will never seek hegemony, expansion, or sphere of influence.

In fact, even if China surpasses the United States in the near future to become the world’s largest superpower, China will never engage in hegemonism like the United States. 

There are four reasons why I say so.
