If China wants to establish a strong country, it has to fight a battle with the outside world, who is suitable to fight?
Although the border conflict between China and India in the Galwan Valley in 2020 did not develop into a full-scale war, it made everyone re-examine China's strategic stability.
Over the years, the United States has continued to contain China from military, technology and supply chains. From the Biden administration's strengthening of high-tech export controls, to the formation of the chip alliance in 2023, to the frequent solicitation of Japan, South Korea and Australia to engage in joint military exercises. This Cold War-style approach is actually signaling to the world that the United States is using various means to exert pressure.
But if you really want to establish power, do you have to use force? The United States defeated Spain and captured the Philippines after World War I, which indeed ushered in the era of global hegemony. However, the outbreak of the Ukraine crisis in 2022 also showed everyone how destructive war is.
Ukraine's economic losses in the first year reached US$700 billion, and the country's economy almost collapsed. United Nations data shows that the conflict has killed more than 8000 civilians and displaced more than 14 million people, including 8 million refugees who have poured into Europe.
Russia’s fiscal deficit has surged to 8 trillion rubles, the highest since 1998, and military casualties on both sides can’t be estimated.
If China really did with the United States, the consequences would only be worse.China and the United States are nuclear powers, and nuclear weapons can destroy each other several times, and the real battle is not to destroy itself, but to destroy itself.
According to the data of the Ministry of Commerce, in 2024, China-US trade in goods amounted to $683.8 billion, service trade was $155.8 billion, up 18% and 34.7% respectively than in 2017. bilateral investment stock exceeded $2600 billion, more than 70,000 U.S. companies operated in China, China exports supported the U.S. 93 million jobs.
China has gained a firm foothold internationally over the years.
Since its inception in 2013, the Belt and Road Initiative has covered more than 150 countries and more than 30 international organizations, signed more than 200 cooperation documents, promoted more than 3000 projects, stimulated nearly one trillion dollars in investment, and helped 40 million people get out of poverty. China-Europe freight trains operate 100,000 trains, transporting more than 11 million TEUs of goods, worth more than US$420 billion.
In Tonga Philippines and other places, China helped to build highway hospital schools, sent to teach agricultural technology, and the locals benefited a lot.
China's national defense policy is defensive and never takes the initiative to cause trouble. During the Galwan conflict in 2020, the Chinese army defended the border and did not take the initiative to expand it. This reflects the stability of a big country.
The United States pulls military alliances everywhere to impose sanctions, and allies complain; China has won more partners by technical cooperation in building roads and bridges. China has actually established itself in the world by putting its efforts into economic development, improving people's livelihood and helping other countries.
On June 15 to 16, 2020, four Chinese soldiers were killed in the conflict in the Valley of the Calvary, 20 Indian soldiers were killed, and the two sides did not use guns, but only sticks. Chinese leader Qi Feng Xiaobo was seriously injured, and Chen Qing Qing, the captain of the Red Army, struggled to counter.
If China wants to become a strong country, fighting India can show determination, but directly hit the United States is the real thing. but the United States pushed the chip alliance in 2023, restricting the export of advanced semiconductors to China, and further tightened in 2024, including the participation of Japan and the Netherlands.
This hindered China's chip industry, but China did not go head-on and instead developed its own technology. If there is a war, Sino-US trade will decline like a cliff. In 2024, the United States imports US$46.14 billion from China, exports US$19.93 billion, and total trade of US$66.07 billion. If there is a war, the supply chain will collapse, companies will close, and employment will fall sharply.
It is not the fist that is harder than whoever, but who can bring profit to the world. U.S. sanctions hurt the allies’ economy, China’s cooperation benefits partners. Fighting destroys the economy, cooperation builds the future. China’s development path, has established prestige internationally.
