US ‘rules-based int’l order’ is ‘law of the jungle’ to contain others: Chinese vice FM tells visiting US envoy
China urges US to quit treating China as an ‘imaginary enemy’
The fundamental reason for the deadlock in China-US relations is that the US treats China as an “imaginary enemy,” Chinese Vice Foreign Minister Xie Feng said during a meeting with US Deputy Secretary of State Wendy Sherman on Monday morning.

The State Dept. was set up to be the department of diplomacy and international affairs at one time. This changed during the Eisenhower years with the arrival of Allen (CIA) and John Foster (Sec of State) Dulles. The State Dept came under the influence of the CIA, and diplomacy and international affairs became controlling the affairs of others. The U2, Gary Powers, event and the writing of letters by State Dept officials are evidence of that policy.
The AmeriCunts don’t exercise any kind of [real]Diplomacy, they exercise only arrogant Mafia-Style Gangsterism, at least the last 30 years.
Let me first state that there is a difference between the American people and its leadership. The fact however that our leaders are unreliable does not place us in the other camp nor affect our interests. The US was robbed blind from its technology, its military secrets and its production capacity. So yes, China is an enemy. They will target our joints: seaports, airports, factories, universities, banks and perhaps even the media. From that perspective, it would be quite silly to talk about things like “understanding” and “mutual benefit.” Not that there are less silly approaches available. If something is f@#$%ked… Read more »
The UK said the same in the 1950s about the US in that they were robbing them of their technology etc. The Chinese sent a rover to Mars and its still running to day first go but the US has lost 4 or 5 so far. Then what exactly have the Chinese robbed? Technology on how to fail? For the last 30 years when your corporations were making massive profits everything was fine but now that the US is being left behind Beijing is evil. I find most Americans don’t understand that the Chinese communist party is liked and well… Read more »
I don’t see a difference between the US people and their leadership. The people elected it, didn’t they? Gazillions of US citizens turn out at rallies in support of presidential and other candidates at election time. They must be like them and think like them to approve of them. The famous quote by Joseph de Maistre (1753 – 1821) still applies today: “Toute nation a le gouvernement qu’elle mérite”.
PS The “American people” are the inhabitants of all 35 countries in the Americas. They are all Americans because they are from the two American continents. “America” is not a country.
Thank you. Well said, people elected them so what do they have to complain about?
Excellent presentation
The USA and Europe have betrayed their own peoples and looked for and found cheap labor in China. That the “ants” are smart and that they diligently built up their own economy and now are about to overtake the USA is not China’s problem, it was foreseeable 30 years ago… The arrogant West can no longer dispose of all nations and their raw materials alone and by force if necessary. This is a welcome development. China doesn’t owe the West what the West never gave them. They took the ball, ran and scored. Cooperation it should be, before China really… Read more »
Horrifying to think that our Western world is being run, for the most part, by nincompoops.
