Chinanews.com, Beijing, June 11 (Wen Tianxia) Are you in Europe, but your heart is "connected" with China?

From June 9th, US President Biden visited Europe for the first time as president. It is said that an important purpose of this trip is to form a "team" of transatlantic allies against China.

Foreign media said that China's strength and performance in science and technology, infrastructure, economy, and anti-epidemic have all made the Biden administration anxious.

Before the trip, Biden declared that the purpose of going to Europe this time was to let China and Putin "see how close the United States and Europe (ally relations) are."

　　However, Biden is "eager to eat hot tofu", but Europe is afraid that it will be difficult to follow.

The German "Business Daily" believes that the United States' "decoupling policy" against China may encounter many resistances in Europe.

The German weekly "Focus" pointed out that "the United States and Europe can no longer return to the past."

　　The New York Times analyzed that Europeans do not regard China as a "peer competitor" like Washington. In terms of trade and energy, Europe's dependence on China and Russia is still higher than that of the United States.

Russian experts also pointed out that "Europeans are sticking to their own strategic interests", the essence of which is to build an equal and pragmatic relationship with China and actively develop economic relations.

　　On the issue of China, Europe is unwilling to be the only leader of the United States and is unwilling to be "kidnapped" by the United States.

Some European leaders made a clear statement.

Reuters quoted French President Macron as saying on June 11, “Our policy in the Indo-Pacific strategy is not to align with anyone. On this issue, the policy I advocate for France and Europe is: Don’t Become a vassal of China and don’t form an alliance with the United States."

　　One of the two main leaders of the European Union, the President of the European Council, Michelle, also defended the EU's efforts to reach a China-EU investment agreement with China before the summit with Biden.

　　Europe’s desire for diplomatic independence is growing stronger, but the United States is still wearing the "old sheepskin" that has long exposed its wolf tail, trying to manipulate and use "allies."

　　In fact, the promotion and sale of the anti-China strategy of the United States in Europe is not unwelcome, and it is not unrelated to the decline in its own credibility.

For Europe that wants to win over, the United States is actually "two faces", one face to face and one behind the other.

　　Just before Biden's trip, foreign media cited a bunch of European protests and dissatisfaction with the United States.

For example, long-term monitoring of German Chancellor Angela Merkel and other European politicians, unilateral decisions to withdraw troops from Afghanistan without notifying allies, announcing abandoning the property rights protection of the new crown vaccine, etc. Boeing, steel and aluminum have "punished" European tariffs and trade...

　　Borrowing the evaluation of European officials, what the United States is doing in Europe is "not unconditional love, but a friend of interest."

Biden carefully put a price tag on his strategy, and he hopes "value for money."

A series of disagreements between Europe and the United States have caused Europe to suffer "heavy injuries." During Biden's limited tenure, the wounds may be difficult to heal.

　　It can be seen that no matter where it is domineering or "yin and yang", whether it is manipulating or squeezing or using bondage, nowhere in the world will work.

　　As Wang Wenbin, a spokesman for the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs, said, advocating confrontation is definitely on the wrong path.

Peaceful development and win-win cooperation are the trend of the current era and the common aspiration of all countries.

The practice of forming cliques, engaging in group politics and small circles is unpopular and is doomed to nowhere.
