Beijing alleges NATO expansion close to China using the Ukraine strategy due to waning US hegemony feared by Washington. Chinese leaders are wary that the US and its allies are planning to sow the same chaos via surrogate states just like Ukraine. Precisely like Russia, China is viewed by Washington as a threat, and it has formally supported Moscow in snubbing the US president.
Failing US Hegemony in the Indo-Pacific
Developments in Eastern Europe started a US-backed power grab in Ukraine in 2014, a chaotic financial and security crisis since the end of World War II, reported Sputnik News.
To contain China, the west might use the same strategy to cause trouble near the People's Republic of China. The North Atlantic Treaty Organization will have a summit in Madrid with members remarked by state media as an allegedly suspicious plot. Neoconservatives in Washington and their allies want to spread the seed from a security crisis driving European to energy and financial situation; all to take down Vladimir Putin, noted CGTN.
According to an op-ed on the site, when the first bullet was fired at the Moscow border, the United States and NATO had been working to develop ties with Asia-Pacific governments.
Citing Secretary Antony Blinken's call for regional allies to attend the summit, the UK Foreign Secretary Liz Truss's saying last week about the need for a global overreach to stop threats in the Indo-Pacific. NATO expansion has called China several times a systemic challenge to the security in the region or US hegemony and pushes the need to be done about it for a global outlook using the Ukraine handbook.
The western alliance should have ended after the Cold War. The US has been busy causing instability in Global affairs since 1945, looking for a valid reason for all its activities after the Cold War and the fall of the Soviet Union when it should have dissolved.
Its hegemonic expansion towards the east about five times from 1999 with 30 members; from only 15 nations. Russia asked the Western Alliance to stop, but it won't with Ukraine.
NATO Expansion Plots To Destabilize
Until now, the US and its allies deny their actions but blame Vladimir Putin for what is caused by their alleged acts. According to the media outlet, NATO is means by Washington to steer allies to do the alleged dirty work to perpetuate its hold in the east and the west. It is joining its allies to show a front that allegedly benefits the US and still is the main superpower globally and denies a multi-lateral world order. NATO will be the main beneficiary and no one else.
The outlet remarked after the statement of US Indo-Pacific Command chief John C. Aquilino; he stated it was a pretty good model for the region for those nations that value freedom. He went on to say those nations had been partners for many years. There will be a rise in collaborative events from partner nations, within and without the area, noted Fars News.
Last month, Chinese President Xi Jinping suggested a "Global Security Initiative" to challenge the United States' Indo-Pacific Strategy. Also, unilateralism and hegemony-seeking efforts in geopolitics, in general, mentioned Asia Nikkei.
Russia and China published a joint statement in early February condemning NATO membership and the Western bloc's 'Cold War approach to world affairs. NATO expansion, according to China, is dangerous, especially if they use their Ukraine strategy to allegedly further US hegemony via a surrogate; with the support of their allies.
