/ world today news/ On June 4, the website of the Hong Kong publication South China Morning Post published an article stating that the leaders of AUCUS prefer “posturing and provocations, not dialogue.”
The old tactic of the US towards China, which is also used by the Biden administration, is to pretend on the one hand that they want negotiations, and then to attack. The latest example is this year’s Shangri La Dialogue in Singapore, which provided a good opportunity for dialogue, but US Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin and Australian Defense Minister Richard Marrs showed belligerence and duplicity, the author writes.
According to the article, America’s so-called “defense” is extremely aggressive in the eyes of other countries, and security as the United States perceives it is a cause of insecurity in other countries. When the US encourages its allies to act to “contain” and “encircle” China, it calls it “strengthening the alliance.” When China takes countermeasures, the US says it is engaging in “bullying and coercion”. When the US puts pressure on other countries with economic means, they call it “sanctions”. And when other countries do the same, the US calls it “economic coercion.”
