"China is not a threat, the rule of the West is"

The Spanish Daily News website published an article entitled "NATO: Target China" on July 2nd, the author is Alan Tesa Tirado. The full text is as follows:

The NATO Madrid Summit left a series of statements, analysis and views. This summit mentioned that China is a country that constitutes a "systemic challenge" and provides clues about new geopolitical changes. At the same time, this also shows that NATO is actually an alliance that serves the US geographical strategic interests. The idea of ​​seeing China as a threat appeared in all the defense strategies of the US government in recent years, including the new version of the defense strategy that has not yet been released in 2022.

Add this to the new NATO strategic concept clearly reflects the wrestling of the United States and China in the international system. The United States hopes to prevent China from becoming a superpower replacing its position.

NATO (can be said to be the United States) has long accused China of "destroying rules -based international order." However, as we all know, when defending its geopolitical interests in the former Yugoslav, Iraq, Afghanistan, and Libya, the United States and NATO have not complied with rules. The problems between the United States (now adding NATO) and China are that China ’s dominance in the fields of 5G, key infrastructure, strategic raw materials and supply chains has affected the interests of the West.

We don't know how the future world system will distribute power, but we know that the United States will not easily abandon its dominant position. In fact, behind many conflicts, invasion and coup in recent years, we can find that the United States has refused to accept multi -polar order. In the multi -polar order, the United States must share power with emerging powers rising in terms of economy, trade, military, and population, which is the geopolitical checks and balances of the US -led international organizations.

These days we have seen the use of NATO strategic concepts to strengthen the practice of Grand Westernist geopolitical groups, so that those who hope that the European Union can play the leading role in the transformation of the geopolitical pattern of our independent group has almost lost hope. All member states and the entire EU seem to have given up their strategic autonomy.

Most European countries belong to NATO. After this summit, they have clearly sent such information to major trading partners China, that is, China is fundamentally regarded as a systematic competitor. This means that EU countries have forgotten the strategic partner that China should negotiate with it. This is not a smart move.

The NATO Summit has clearly stated that the alliance in the international system will increasingly follow the dual logic of the Cold War period, so it is worth remembering some of the ideas of "curbing" the doctrine of the "curb" theory. Kenan had warned that the United States found that the Soviet leaders had some non -existent goals and intentions. This was wrong, triggering hostile actions, and eventually becoming a prediction of self -realization. If NATO leaders can notice Kenan's words and look in the mirror, it will be good. Perhaps they will realize that for most people around the world, China is not a threat, and Western rule is.
