China News Service, Beijing, March 22 (Huang Yuqin) In response to the US's repeated mention of China's economic and military "coercion" against US allies in the China-US high-level strategic dialogue, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Hua Chunying made a routine on the 22nd At the press conference, it was stated that the hat of "coercion diplomacy" is obviously the most suitable for the United States to wear, and it is hoped that the United States will stop coercing other countries to choose sides.

  A reporter asked that in this high-level strategic dialogue between China and the United States, the United States repeatedly mentioned China's economic and military "coercion" to its allies.

Australian Minister of Trade, Tourism and Investment Tien said that he thanked the United States for standing up and supporting Australia. The United States will not leave Australia alone.

At the same time, we have also seen reports that regional countries are cautious about the formation of an "anti-China alliance" by the United States, claiming that they blindly cater to the US strategic goals and ignore China's concerns and are out of balance.

For example, South Korea said that South Korea will not only view China as a threat, but will further strengthen pragmatic cooperation with China.

What is China's comment?

  Hua Chunying responded that with regard to the so-called "allies" and "coercion" issues, Director Yang Jiechi and State Councilor and Foreign Minister Wang Yi had already made strong responses in the opening remarks of the China-US high-level strategic dialogue.

  She said: First, the United States and its so-called allies cannot represent the international community.

In fact, most countries in the world do not recognize the United States as an international society, do not recognize the value of the United States as international values, do not recognize that the United States is talking about international public opinion, and do not recognize that the rules formulated by a few countries are international rules.

  Hua Chunying pointed out that secondly, China has its own problems and positions with the United States, Australia and other US allies. The merits and merits are very clear.

Attempts to form gangs, engage in "small circles" to pressure and blackmail China, or even frighten China by fakes, are not feasible.

There is a direct flight between Australia and China, and the gains outweigh the losses by detouring the United States to seek further distances.

  She further stated that thirdly, as for coercion, the international community can clearly see who in this world is willing to brandish the sanctions stick, engage in "long-arm jurisdiction," and "coerce" other countries.

China has never launched a trade war, illegally arrested citizens of other countries, or suppressed enterprises of other countries for no reason.

The hat of "coercive diplomacy" is obviously the most suitable for the United States, not China.

  Hua Chunying emphasized that both the people of China and the United States and the vast majority of countries in the world, including the people of some so-called allies of the United States, hope that China and the United States can coexist peacefully and that China and the United States can have a common "circle of friends." It is hoped that the United States will show the self-confidence and demeanor that it should have as a major country, and stop coercing other countries to choose sides, and stop coercing other countries to follow the United States to interfere in China's internal affairs and harm China's interests.
