It was argued that China should set up a “red line” (Majino Line) against the four nations of the United States, Japan, Australia, and India, and draw out an economic retaliation card against so-called Chinese economies such as Australia.
On the 18th, the Global Times, an English version of the Hwangu Hours, cited remarks from Chinese experts, pointing out that the US administration is trying to block China using a quad, and poured out intense criticism.
Quad is a’anti-China’ security council formed by the Donald Trump administration by checking China’s strengthening influence in the Indo-Pacific region, and the Quad diplomatic ministers meeting was held after the Joe Biden administration.
“The quad is the central axis of the so-called’Indo-Pacific’ strategy,” said Nifeng, a US researcher at the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, with Joe Biden’s US administration trying to block China. He also said that the Biden administration’s Indo-Pacific strategy inherited the strategy of the times of former President Donald Trump.
“President Biden, who is familiar with former President Barack Obama’s’rebalance in Asia'”, said, “President Biden, who is familiar with former President Barack Obama’s’Asian rebalancing’, is using a variety of methods and means to curb the peaceful development of China.”
Researcher Luan pointed out that President Biden is trying to advance US regional interests by using Quad as a means of diplomacy in the Asia Pacific region.
“It’s not just the Chinese strategy on the agenda in the quad,” Luan added, “but we should be concerned about the US making the quad a complete’anti-China’ club and making any words or actions harmful to China.”
The media cited comments from several analysts, saying that the Quad is close to a hedging (risk variance) for the integration of a new China-led Asian order after the signing of the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (RECP), given the relations between the Indo-Pacific countries and the mass economy. did.
He added that the phenomenon of preparing such a countermeasure is taking place in the European Union (EU), and that the US trajectory has gone further than that of the Trump administration.
The media also said that China became the EU’s largest education country last year, overtaking the United States, and that the relationship between China and EU member states this year will further strengthen.
Japan is China’s second largest trading partner for the fourth consecutive year, the largest trading partner of goods for 12 consecutive years, and India is the largest importer and third largest exporter, forcing the quad participants to see how large China is.
The media said that China is the economic center of the Indo-Pacific region, so the US’s geopolitical trick would not work.
Researcher Nifeng said, “Each of the parties to the quad has different national interests, so if the United States attracts them, they will put the United States on the battlefield.
“China should make the most of its economic cards to counter possible provocations,” said Nifeng. “Australia, one of the quad members, has already tasted (economic sanctions) as an anti-Chinese pioneer.”
