The U.S. claims that the security cooperation between China and Solomon Islands will pose a threat to the Chinese side: Does the U.S. regard the island countries as independent sovereign states or appendages? -Chinanews.com video

　　Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Wang Wenbin hosted a regular press conference on April 20.

　　A reporter asked: In response to the signing of the security agreement between China and the Solomon Islands, the spokesperson of the National Security Council of the United States issued a statement on the 19th saying that the United States, Japan, New Zealand and Australia are concerned about the security framework agreement. The Pacific region poses a serious threat.

What is China's response?

　　Wang Wenbin: China and Solomon Islands will carry out security cooperation on the basis of equality, mutual benefit, openness and transparency, and help Solomon Islands maintain social order, respond to natural disasters, and carry out humanitarian assistance. It will not target any third party and will not replace the existing bilateral and multilateral security. cooperation mechanism.

I don't understand how this poses a serious risk to the US side?

　　According to the logic of the US, are Pacific island countries only able to carry out security cooperation with the US?

Or can it only carry out security cooperation with a few of its allies, including the United States?

Is security cooperation with other countries a threat?

Does the US regard the island country as an independent sovereign country, or as its own appendage?

Is it to develop equal relations with the island nation, or seek to control the island nation?

These are the questions the US needs to answer.
