Chinese FM Qin Gang went on the record on Tuesday that the US would not find it pleasant if they won't back off. Beijing has been criticized for siding with Russia, which has not been affected by any sanctions.
Chinese FM Tells the White House To Back Off
Qin, the Chinese ambassador to the US, is known as a skilled diplomat overseas known for his carefulness in his position. But as the Chinese FM started with a stern warning to Washington during the annual China parliamentary meeting. He said the US is not thinking right about dealing with China and warned that it's a mistake how they view their superpower status, reported CNN.
While the National People's Congress in Beijing was in full swing giving his opinion on what their competitor was doing, he added America is speeding the wrong way, and whatever it does, it will be a showdown of the sort, noted Bloomberg.
The event set the backdrop to determine Beijing's foreign policy for this year and beyond. Called tension authored by the US to set up China in a negative way. Inevitably the US called out its ties with the Kremlin.
The clashing of these two biggest economies is the low point that is nothing compared to previous years. Washington and Beijing are still at loggerheads after alleged Chinese spy balloons got shot down by F-22 fighter jets.
FM Qin called it a heavy-handed reaction by the US that could have been handled delicately. It merely demonstrated the incapability of its officials to avoid a diplomatic crisis, but it did happen that way.
The US wants to start a ruckus in the global scene even as Beijing prefers diplomacy and discussion. But the US wants to dominate and suppress that will end nothing gained by their approach. Try as America can by containing and suppressing China to make a difference for glory-seeking Washington, and China will be rejuvenated.
US Claims Beijing Copying Russia
Washington has accused Beijing of anti-American propaganda, which is less aggressive than Russia. The Kremlin was accused of cyber espionage and covert operations during US elections and attacking alleged rivals, cited AP News.
A general atmosphere in Washington is that the Chinese are ramping up tactics like Russia that are getting noticed. Some think that more needs to be done about it.
US officials and experts claim that actors connected to China are producing fake news. They are supposed to use AI and post on social media, which is directed against the US. The west is now in an information war that the Chinese are engaging in, which is not always easy. Washington says that Beijing uses Russian-style propaganda as it becomes more dominant in several areas.
Another aspect that bothers the White House is the tandem of Moscow and Beijing, which is the last thing it wants. The Chinese FM Qin wants the US to know Beijing wants them to back off, or the consequence will not be favorable.
