Singapore's "Lianhe Zaobao" praised China's diplomacy, welcoming the "small spring" during the Start of Spring, and revealed the essence of many Western leaders' visits to China!
From December last year to now, leaders of traditional U.S. allies such as French President Macron, South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol, Canadian Prime Minister Trudeau, and British Prime Minister Starmer have visited China in a concentrated manner, setting a historical record. The UK and Canada are part of the U.S.-led "Five Eyes Alliance," and the visit of their leaders to China carries significant historical implications of "breaking the ice."
The article also cited the view of the UK's "Financial Times," revealing the essence of China's "small spring" in diplomacy - while the Trump administration waved the tariff stick recklessly and continuously distanced itself from its allies, the world is facing a fractured post-war international order. As a relatively stable and reliable major power, China is naturally filling the gap. At present, China needs only to observe developments and watch its rivals make avoidable strategic mistakes.
According to reports, German Chancellor Scholz plans to visit China soon, and Trump has also stated that he will visit China in April. If these plans are realized, will China's diplomacy then welcome a "big spring"?
