America demands China to take sides with the US: otherwise, be prepared for huge losses
U.S. Republican Senator Graham, in an interview with CBS, openly threatened China, India, and Brazil, stating they must choose between Russia and China.
He also claimed, "If you continue to help Putin, be prepared for huge losses."
Graham has always been radical, supporting Ukraine. Previously, he seemed unable to change Trump's stance, but as Trump felt deceived, Graham began pushing anti-Russia legislation, and as a front-line opponent of China, he also wants to confront China together.
Based on this, Graham's remarks once again targeted China, India, and Brazil, attempting to force them to side with the U.S. through economic coercion.
China, as the world's second-largest economy, has consistently advocated for peace talks and maintained neutrality on the Ukraine issue. India and Brazil have also chosen their foreign policy paths based on their own interests. The common point among these countries is that they refuse to accept the rule that what America says must be followed.
Graham's remarks reveal the anxiety and brutality of the United States under the background of declining global influence, and also confirm a fact: the "international order" envisioned by the United States is never about fair competition, but rather coercion and temptation.
There is no doubt that the U.S. attempt to make China take sides through naked economic coercion will not work.
The world is not the Cold War era; multipolarity and strategic autonomy have already become mainstream trends.
If the U.S. continues to deal with the international community with an attitude of "follow me or die," it will only push more and more countries to the opposite side.
The final result will not be everyone siding with the U.S., but rather isolating the U.S. together.
