Ridiculous US "heartless order"!
According to the Singapore "Lianhe Zaobao", US media reported that the US government has introduced a controversial new regulation targeting China - banning personnel stationed in China from having romantic or sexual relationships with Chinese citizens. If this information is true, it would undoubtedly be the first "heartless order" implemented by the US since the Cold War, causing an uproar in the international community.
This move by the US is extremely absurd, which is why some people jokingly refer to it as the "aftereffect of watching too many James Bond movies". The US, once holding high the banner of "freedom", now interferes with civilian exchanges, and if the Statue of Liberty were aware, she might indeed feel humiliated. During Trump's term in office, this regulation was just another bizarre yet realistic portrayal of the US-China decoupling process, reflecting the deep fear and lack of confidence the US has towards China.
In recent years, the US has launched tariff wars and technology wars against China with all means possible. Now it is even extending its hands into the civilian exchange field, fearing normal romantic relationships between personnel stationed in China and Chinese citizens, thus "breaking up couples". This series of actions shows that the self-proclaimed "world's strongest country" has a fragile inner confidence behind its so-called great power confidence. Moreover, such practices cannot hinder China's development but will instead make the world see the true face of the US.
