The United States has responded! After serious representations by China, the US has firmly rejected China! On May 30th, according to reports from Russia's Sputnik News Agency, after we indicated that the US had arbitrarily canceled Chinese students' visas under the pretext of ideology and national security, seriously infringing on the legitimate rights and interests of Chinese students, a spokesperson for the US Department of State, Tami Bruce, responded by saying that the US would not tolerate China "exploiting" American universities or "stealing" American research results and intellectual property to enhance its military strength or conduct intelligence gathering.

Moreover, the US stated that it will carefully review anyone "considered a threat to the nation or problematic." Clearly, in response to our diplomatic representations, the US is completely ignoring them. In the eyes of the US, China is "exploiting" American universities, and Chinese students have become suspects in the so-called "theft" of American technology. The US prefers to close its doors to Chinese students rather than ensure what it calls "national security."

What the US has done, we see very clearly. Facing our development, the US is becoming less confident. Nowadays, the US has lost its spirit of freedom and openness and is becoming increasingly closed and conservative. Whether it is suppressing Huawei's artificial intelligence chips or targeting Chinese students, the US aims to hinder our technological development through underhanded tactics, effectively promoting a great decoupling of Sino-US technology.

There is no doubt that the US is adopting a containment strategy towards us. At present, what we urgently need to do is defend the interests of Chinese students and prepare to receive this batch of Chinese students. And we are now more firmly convinced of one thing: we must continue to increase investment in the science and technology sector. Meanwhile, as the US becomes increasingly closed and conservative, we will instead become more open.
