　　A reporter asked questions on the same day. On the 13th, US Secretary of State Blincoln and Australian Foreign Minister Payne said when they met with reporters in Washington that the United States would not allow Australia to face China's "economic coercion" alone.

China's "economic coercion" of US allies will hinder US-China relations. What's China's comment on this?

　　"The term'coercion' has recently appeared more frequently, but I don't know where the U.S.'s so-called "economic coercion" to its allies started?" Hua Chunying asked rhetorically.

　　Hua Chunying said that "economic coercion" and "coercive diplomacy" are the strengths and characteristics of the United States. Through its own policies and actions, the United States has provided the world with classic textbooks and cases of coercive diplomacy, which means that the United States uses force to threaten the world. , Political isolation, economic sanctions, and technological blockade to achieve their own strategic goals.

　　Hua Chunying said, in fact, in 1971, Stanford University professor Alexander George first proposed the concept of "coercive diplomacy", which was used to summarize the U.S. policy towards Laos, Cuba, and Vietnam, and the U.S. government itself has never shy away from using "coercive diplomacy". "The word is even very proud of it.

　　Hua Chunying pointed out that when it comes to "economic coercion", the United States has been waving a "sanction stick" against Cuba, North Korea, Iran, and Venezuela for many years, provoking a "trade war" against many countries at will, and abusing national security to arbitrarily suppress other countries. Technology companies.

She said that whether it is Alstom in France, Toshiba and Toyota in Japan, the aerospace industry in the former Soviet Union, or now China's telecommunications industry and other high-tech industries, they are all victims of "economic coercion" in the United States.

　　"I have noticed that many people in the United States hope that China and the United States will strengthen dialogue and cooperation, calling on China and the United States to meet each other halfway to improve relations, and believe that a healthy, stable and sustainable Sino-US relationship is in the interests of the American people." Hua Chunying asked, Secretary of State Blincol The meaning of this sentence is that the interests of Australia are more important than the interests of the United States? If this is the case, when did the US policy change from "America first" to "Australia first"? (Finish)
