<Anchor> At a



high-level meeting last week, the US, which had a slanderous war with China, mobilized Western allies to step into sanctions against China.

As China seems to be looking forward, it seems that the US-China conflict spreads in the form of force consolidation as North Korea and Russia are in close contact.



This is Beijing Songwook's correspondent.

Britain and Canada also announced sanctions against China, and the United States also added two Chinese officials to the list.



The sanctions came ahead of US Secretary of State Blincoln's visit to Europe, and it is analyzed that it has given power to the US to pressure China by restoring the alliance.

China showed off its close contact with North Korea by revealing the exchange of oral letters between President Xi Jinping and Chairman Kim Jong-un.



President Xi said that he would contribute to peace on the Korean Peninsula and that he could leverage the issue of the Korean Peninsula in the face of US-China conflict.



Conflict between the United States and China spreads into a confrontation between the forces and the camp, raising concerns about the New Cold War.
