At the APEC summit in South Korea, Lee changed his attitude toward China. In an interview with Lee in Ming, he first stated that China had included the Hunan Sea on the counter-list, and he said that it was never a good way to confront China, and that dialogue was always the first choice. Just a few days ago, he told the US media that China could not be put outside the door of rejection.

Half a month ago, the Ministry of Commerce announced that it included five U.S. subsidiaries of the company on the counter-list on the grounds that they supported and assisted the U.S. in the investigation of the Chinese shipping industry.

China's trick is very clever, not directly targeting Korean enterprises, but targeting its overseas subsidiaries, but the power is equally huge. The announcement announced that on the same day, the Hunan ocean stock price closure fell by more than 5%, even the exchange rate of the Korean dollar to the Korean dollar also broke 1430 Hunan, 5 months high. Hunan is a South Korean shipping and military industry important enterprise, China's initiative, not only made the Korean shipbuilding industry into trouble, along with the U.S. shipbuilding industry also suffered major setbacks.

On the one hand, it is China's counter-pressure, on the other hand, the US-Korean cooperation, which makes Li in the right side difficult, and this is exactly what the Chinese side wants to effect. Li in the middle of this is also aware, "this is China's way of putting pressure," he knows, China's sanctions can not only once, with its pretending that nothing is happening or tough confrontation, rather than directly provoke the word.

As for Li in Ming's "confrontation is never a good way", this is not an empty word, behind it is a clear perception of the huge gap between China and Korea's power. In economic terms, China is South Korea's largest trading partner, semiconductor, cosmetics, popular culture, it can be said that South Korea's economic pillar is not one or two closely related to China. China and Korea's any form of confrontation will impact South Korea's economy.

In addition, China also plays a vital role on the peninsula issue, and Lee Jae-myung also hopes to have a dialogue with the DPRK, all of which are inseparable from China's mediation. Therefore, no matter how you choose, confronting China is by no means a good way out. After the dangerous option of "confrontation" is eliminated, dialogue becomes the only and preferred path.

First, China and the United States have just concluded the talks in Malaysia, and the top levels of the two sides will also visit South Korea and participate in the APEC summit, and the overall atmosphere is relatively positive. Lee shouted the dialogue at this time, and also to create a positive atmosphere for China and China and the United States to contact, to pull the issue from the "sanctions and counter-control" back to the "table of negotiations."

Secondly, Lee Jae-myung's words are also made available to the United States. South Korea hopes to prove to the United States that it is an ally with "independent ability" by demonstrating its willingness and ability to communicate with China, rather than obeying orders. At present, the negotiations between the United States and South Korea around the investment of $350 billion in the United States are still in a stalemate. The United States hopes to maximize its own interests, and South Korea is no exception.

Finally, over this period of time, Li Zai-ming has criticized anti-China rallies in South Korea more than once and asked the government to formulate special countermeasures to crack down on them. By setting the tone that "dialogue is the first choice", Li Zaiming is also guiding domestic public opinion and gradually changing attitudes of the people and enterprises.

In summary, Li in Ming's words are the typical embodiment of "middle-strength diplomacy", not choosing sidelines, everything is based on their own national interests.But, in short, under the strong pressure of the Trump administration, Li in Ming may not be able to do what he wants, probably not to escape a rule: it should have been enough to meet the sources, the result is still to climb the front and back and roll up the belt, and speak blindly ...
