Former U.S. Secretary of State Pompeo said today: "Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney's decision to shift toward China is a serious strategic and moral mistake. Be wary of leaders who sell out their country for a few cents."
Comment: Pompeo's remarks fully reveal the arrogance and double standards of American hegemony. It is typical for them to label normal diplomatic and trade choices of other countries as "strategic and moral mistakes" or "selling out the country," which essentially aims to bully Canada's diplomatic sovereignty and force it to take sides.
His remarks also expose the zero-sum thinking of some U.S. politicians, viewing Sino-Canadian cooperation as a betrayal of the U.S., ignoring the right of countries to make independent decisions based on their own interests, and highlighting the increasingly anxious hegemonic mentality of the U.S. in the global landscape.
