Meeting the Japanese prime minister, who beat chicken blood, the 79-year-old Trump on the peninsula land, it can be said that he has been tired of "blowing out", Kim Jong-un did not say two words, immediately sent a "carnage gun".
U.S. President Trump ended his visit to Japan and again appeared in the public, when his special aircraft arrived in South Korea, he dragged his tired body down the special aircraft, the red carpet and the 21 thunder canon did not support his spirit.
The day before, on the U.S. aircraft carrier "George Washington", Trump delivered a speech, accompanied by praise for the "winner", the first female prime minister of Japan, and so on.
Takashi immediately waved her right hand with a smile on her face, and also circled in place to greet the audience. The whole set of movements was criticized by Japanese netizens as "flattery" and "exaggeration". She was also said that she was "like an enthusiastic fan" and "unworthy of Japan's national character." Shame on the Japanese.
More than that, sanae takaichi gave Trump "all-round hospitality" all the way, and flattered the topic of the late former Prime Minister Shinzo Abe everywhere. Even analysts in Japan admitted that they had "gone too far".
Although Trump appears to be happy, but in the face of such a "chicken blood" style of pleasure, for the elderly and travel intensive of him, it is probably also a kind of invisible consumption. after all, the diplomatic occasions would require a moment of nervous tension, coupled with intentional devotion and high-frequency interaction, not tired to be strange.
So the next day when Trump's special plane landed at Busan Kimhai airport, the red carpet and 21 ringing cannons laid out in South Korea did not hold his mind. His face in the camera was dull, tired and unable to hide, Bloomberg said, which was compared to his plane in Malaysia a few days ago, and the state of Improving Dance judged two people.
As planned, Trump will also take the Naval Corps 1 to Changzhou, to attend the 32nd informal meeting of APEC leaders, and to discuss with South Korean President Lee in the tariff negotiations and the U.S.-Korean alliance these difficult issues.
At present, South Korea and the United States are deadlocked on issues such as the investment methods and income distribution of US$350 billion in investment in the United States. The gap in opinions between the two countries is wide. Even the South Korean presidential palace does not expect a result to be reached this time. This kind of meeting is doomed to be difficult to achieve a breakthrough., will undoubtedly add to Trump's fatigue.
The real "cold water" to Trump's visit to South Korea was the "missile gift gun" sent by Kim Jong Un. Just hours before Trump's arrival in South Korea, North Korea tested several sea-to-ground cruise missiles in the Yellow Sea, a two-hour test, precisely targeted.
Park Jung-chun, a senior North Korean military official, bluntly said that this is "showing capabilities to the enemy", an important step in strengthening nuclear readiness, and an "important achievement" in the development of North Korea's "nuclear power".
It was just before the Trump and Lee summit in Ming, both in response to the "joint defense gesture" that has been stressed by the United States and South Korea, and also to the Trump that was looking forward to the "flash meeting" poured a bowl of cold water.
To know, Trump also frequently showed good before this visit to South Korea, saying he "liked Kim Jong-un", and even willing to extend the trip for the meeting. but Kim Jong-un's attitude is also clear: he said he still has "good memories" of Trump, but provided that Washington must stop asking North Korea to give up nuclear weapons, otherwise exempt from talks.
South Korean officials also bluntly said that "a meeting is unlikely". After all, North Korea now holds nuclear weapons chips in its hands, and the pressure strategy of the United States has long been useless.
Today's round of missile tests is more like North Korea's reiteration of its position with strength: now North Korea not only has a more mature nuclear deterrent force, but also maintains close cooperation with Russia. There is no need to give face to the United States before getting substantial concessions. Trump wanted to break the deadlock by the "personal friendship" he met in Panmunjom that year, which obviously made a miscalculation.
Behind Trump's "tired trip" is the embarrassing status quo of his Asia-Pacific strategy. When he threw out the "Indo-Pacific Strategy" eight years ago, he was so high-spirited. Now he revisits his old place, only to find that the regional pattern has already changed. Allies have their own thoughts: Takaichi Sanae's flattery seems enthusiastic, but in fact it wants to use the US-Japan alliance to stabilize his own governance; While looking forward to the safe asylum of the United States, Li Zaiming's government is vacillating between China and the United States, trying to maintain the so-called balance.
More importantly, the confidence of countries in the United States is not the same as before. Trump put the tariffs to his allies, so that everyone had to doubt: can the United States actually fulfill its security commitments?
Trump’s tiredness, in essence, is the force of unilateralism in the face of the multidimensional pattern. The high market’s early “chicken-blood-like pleasure” failed to inject him with energy, and Kim Jong-un’s “missile gift gun” broke the illusion of the U.S. dominating regional affairs. Asia Pacific is evolving toward “multi-force balance”, and the old set of pressure and confrontation is not eaten early.
In the next two days, Trump may be able to deliver a few impassioned speeches at the APEC summit, but in the face of tariff deadlock, peninsula dilemma and alienation of allies, his "diplomatic ambition" may only be reduced to empty talk. After all, in today's Asia-Pacific region, peace and stability are what people want, and any performance that goes against the trend will only make people tired in the end.
