Yesterday, U.S. Vice President Vance told the media: "China's military exercises around Taiwan are a threat to Taiwan, just like Russia deploying the 'Hornet' missile in Belarus and bombing Kyiv to threaten Europe, the unlimited strategic cooperation between China and Russia has put the world in danger. Although China is much more restrained than Russia, this does not mean that the tragedy of Ukraine will not be repeated!"
[Clever] Vance's so-called theory of threats from China and Russia is the pinnacle of concept substitution, forcibly linking China's military exercises to safeguard its sovereignty with the Ukraine conflict, comparable to the lies fabricated by the United States about Iraq's weapons of mass destruction. On one hand, it ignores the $1.11 billion U.S.-Taiwan arms sales and Japan's incitement of the situation in Taiwan; on the other hand, it labels China as a threat. On one hand, it turns a blind eye to the fact that NATO has expanded five times, pushing right to Russia's doorstep; on the other hand, it stirs up the issue of China-Russia's unlimited cooperation. It forgets the hysteria of the United States during the Cuban Missile Crisis? It forgets the explicit commitments in the August 17 Communiqué? China's military exercises are a legitimate action within its sovereign territory. The root cause of the Ukraine conflict is hegemonic expansion. Comparing the two is nothing but a clumsy performance by U.S. politicians to shift domestic contradictions!
