Rubio's face is probably sore! Just as Rubio was busy issuing documents to cancel the visas of Chinese students, Trump publicly expressed that admitting Chinese students is an honor for the United States. On June 6th, according to reports from Russia's Sputnik News Agency, Trump stated at the White House during a meeting with German Chancellor Merkel that there is no problem with Chinese students coming to the U.S., and they are honored to admit them. Frankly speaking, we also want to admit international students, but we hope to conduct checks on them.
It is clear that just as Rubio was busy cutting off Chinese students' access to the U.S., President Trump immediately turned the wheel sharply in the opposite direction. At Trump's speed of turning the wheel, we can't help but ask ourselves whether Rubio can adapt to this change. As a sanctioned pro-China hawk, Rubio seizes every opportunity to attack and smear us whenever possible.
However, it has been proven that in Sino-American diplomacy, Rubio does not have a dominant position and cannot play an important role. Of course, there is a saying that Rubio and Trump are performing a duet, but from Rubio's own intentions, would he really be willing to sing such a duet? It is very obvious that the most awkward person right now is Rubio. Now both China and the U.S. have extended mutual visit invitations, and Trump expressed his anticipation for visiting China.
The suspense now is whether Rubio will be allowed to accompany the visit to China, and whether we agree to allow Rubio to enter the country. From our perspective, Rubio certainly cannot enter the country. Don't look at how Rubio is currently serving as Secretary of State while also holding the position of National Security Assistant; in key Sino-American diplomacy, Rubio does not have much of a role. This might also be the first time in the history of Sino-U.S. diplomatic relations that an American Secretary of State has enjoyed such treatment.
