The US administration is not true to their promises, President Rodrigo Duterte stressed, still angry about Washington bailing out on a small arms shipment to its former territory under the pretext of human rights violations.
“The US is something else, too bossy. Their lieutenants talk like generals. That’s why I don’t listen to them. They do not have a word of honor,” Duterte said in Tokyo, Japan on Thursday, recalling how Washington halted the planned sale of 26,000 assault rifles for the Philippines’ national police in 2016.

The US State Department's refusal to sell assault rifles to Manila, under the pretext of concerns about the country’s human rights record amid its ongoing war on drugs, has forced Duterte to seek new suppliers – namely, China and Russia. After receiving the arms shipments from both countries, Manila expressed interest in further diversifying its supplies and is considering the purchase of patrol boats, armored vehicles and even submarines.

While not tearing up its relations with the US, Manila is seeking to reaffirm its independence from the former colonial power. It signed an agreement on military and technical cooperation with Moscow in 2017, and has cozied up to China by holding its first military exercise with Beijing in October last year, amid ongoing Sino-American tensions in the region.

杜特尔特在日批美“太专横”:“他们没荣耀这个词”

杜特尔特在日批美“太专横”:“他们没荣耀这个词”



150

[环球网报道 记者 侯佳欣]原来,昨天在东京批评美国的不止马来西亚总理马哈蒂尔一个。
据俄罗斯RT电视台报道,菲律宾总统杜尔特尔30日在东京回忆起一段与美国的“往事”,进而吐槽说,“美国人不一样,他们太专横,他们一个中尉说话都像将军。这就是我为什么不听他们说什么的原因,他们压根没有“荣耀”这个词”。

RT说,杜特尔特这么说美国,是因在东京回忆起当年美国以人权为借口,出尔反尔地停止对菲律宾出口小型武器。

杜特尔特当日是在东京参加第25届“亚洲的未来”国际交流会议。马哈蒂尔正是在这个会上批评美国用威胁的手段压制华为,表示马来西亚会尽可能多地使用华为技术。

RT说,2016年,美国原本应该依据协议向菲律宾警察部队出售2.6万支突击步枪,却突然中止。美国国务院当时对杜特尔特的“反毒品战争”存在人权问题表达担忧,并以此作为停售借口。这迫使杜特尔特转向寻求新的供应商,即俄罗斯和中国。在与中俄合作后,菲律宾表示,他们正在考虑(从这些国家)购买巡逻艇、装甲车甚至潜艇。
RT在报道中还提到,菲律宾虽然没有撕破与美国的关系,但他们正在寻求重申其独立于前宗主国(美国)的机会。2017年,菲律宾与俄罗斯签署了军事和技术合作协议;2018年10月,菲律宾与中国进行了首次军事演习。

杜特尔特在“试枪”。

2016年在杜特尔特领导下,菲律宾缉毒署和其他执法部门在国内开展大规模扫毒行动,其中法外处决的做法引起不小争议。美国曾多次指摘其法外处决的手段,对此杜特尔特警告美国,不要对他主导的扫毒行动指手画脚,强调菲律宾已“不再是殖民地”。

[Global Network Reporter Hou Jiaxin] It turned out that yesterday in Tokyo, the United States was not only one of Malaysian Prime Minister Mahathir.

According to Russian RT TV reports, Philippine President Durtel recalled a "posting" with the United States in Tokyo on the 30th, and then spoke out, "Americans are different, they are too bossy, and one of them speaks like a general. This is Why don't I listen to what they say, they don't have the word "glory" at all."

RT said that Duterte said the United States because he recalled in the United States that the United States used human rights as an excuse to stop exporting small arms to the Philippines.

Duterte was attending the 25th "Asia's Future" International Exchange Conference in Tokyo on the same day. It was at this meeting that Mahathir criticized the United States for using threats to suppress Huawei, saying that Malaysia would use Huawei technology as much as possible.
Mahathir Mahathir

RT said that in 2016, the United States should have sold 26,000 assault rifles to the Philippine police force under the agreement, but it was suddenly suspended. At the time, the US State Department expressed concern about the human rights issue in Duterte’s “anti-drug war” and used it as an excuse to stop selling. This forced Duterte to turn to new suppliers, namely Russia and China. After working with China and Russia, the Philippines said they are considering (from these countries) the purchase of patrol boats, armored vehicles and even submarines.

RT also mentioned in the report that although the Philippines has not torn the relationship with the United States, they are seeking to reiterate their chances of independence from the former sovereign state (United States). In 2017, the Philippines signed a military and technical cooperation agreement with Russia; in October 2018, the Philippines conducted its first military exercise with China.
Duterte is "testing the gun." Duterte is "testing the gun."

Under the leadership of Duterte in 2016, the Philippine Drug Enforcement Administration and other law enforcement agencies carried out large-scale anti-drug operations in the country, and the practice of extrajudicial executions caused considerable controversy. The United States has repeatedly accused its means of extrajudicial executions. Duterte warned the United States not to dictate the anti-drug campaign he led, emphasizing that the Philippines is "no longer a colony."

人民日报九论美国必将失败:言而无信、一意孤行!

人民日报九论美国必将失败:言而无信、一意孤行!






从5月23日到31日,人民日报连续刊发署名钟声的评论。评论认为,从无视规则、零和博弈、逆势而动、拒绝竞争、唯我独尊到双重标准、言而无信、一意孤行、自作聪明,倘若美方由着性子定要“一条道走到黑”,那就是选择了一条自弃之路,这条路注定只有一个终点,那就是失败!
9篇评论文章摘发如下:
8ee9-hxvzhte6041082.jpg

1.人民日报:国际秩序容不得任性妄为,无视规则必将失败
一年多来,美方肆意挥舞关税大棒,四处挑起贸易争端,犹如一头“闯进瓷器店的公牛”,肆意冲击以规则为基础的多边贸易体制,把规则、秩序玩弄于股掌之中,成为国际社会最大的“麻烦制造者”。
中美贸易争端的实质,是美方绕开世界贸易组织争端解决机制,根据美国国内法挑起国际贸易摩擦。美国在未经世贸组织授权情况下对中国商品大规模加征关税,是对本国承诺和世贸组织规则的无视,是将单边规则凌驾于国际规则之上的任性妄为。
“基于规则的国际体制正在受到威胁,令人吃惊的是,造成威胁的不是别国,而是主导构建这一体系的美国。”欧洲理事会主席图斯克这番话道出了世人对美国任性之举的鄙视和忧虑。
接连退出一系列国际条约,强制要求重谈北美自由贸易协定和美韩自贸协定,美国的单边主义行为,对国际规则和全球治理构成重大挑战。
美国执迷于破坏国际规则,逻辑出发点是以强权手段谋求一己私利。自以为可以靠强权压服对手,美方高调宣称,双边施压比多边机制更“高效”、关税大棒比规则建设更“高效”。
美国刻意以强权挑战规则,妄图把规则当橡皮泥任意碾压。但是,比谁的胳膊粗、气力大的霸权时代一去不返,世界上的事情只能由各国商量着办。美国抱定单边主义思维,只能是给自己和他国制造麻烦。逆规则肆意妄为,注定要被撞得鼻青脸肿,“再次伟大”的目标只会徒留笑柄。
世界发展大势从来不会以任何人的意志为转移。当美国执迷于破坏规则,另一种“对冲”与“建设”也在悄然进行。维护多边主义和以规则为基础的多边贸易体制,是国际社会的根本利益所在,也是各国的强烈呼声。美国蔑视规则,就是在肆意损害国际社会的共同福祉和世界各国的正当利益。这样的蛮横无理,不得人心,终究也不会有什么好果子吃。

 2.人民日报:公平合作是唯一正确的选择,零和博弈必将失败
一位西方历史学家曾经这样说,人们之所以陷入不可挽回的灾难,常常是因为自己的愚蠢。那些身体已进入21世纪,但脑袋还停留在冷战思维、零和博弈旧时代的美国政客,正在为这一论断提供新的例证。
当前,零和思维顽症在美国决策圈肆虐,一些人看到美国贸易有逆差就肆意对贸易伙伴加征关税;看到别国科技创新成果就污蔑别人是知识产权小偷;看到“一带一路”的“朋友圈”越来越大就打着“债务陷阱”幌子四处造谣;看到中国的国际影响力日益提升就满世界污蔑中伤中国。
这些人不惜动用外交、经济乃至军事资源,通过恐吓、制裁乃至战争手段,试图达到“喂饱自己、饿死别人”的丑陋目的。殊不知,这些鼠目寸光的行为,非但不能让美国“再次伟大”,只会让美国陷入严重自耗。
中美作为两个大国,合作是双方唯一正确的选择,这不仅有利于两国和两国人民,还将对世界和平与繁荣产生巨大作用,任何错误思维和战略误判,都有可能引发全球连锁反应。
历史上,曾有一些人醉心于霸权地位和垄断利益,把世界拖入热战、冷战,给整个人类社会带来深重灾难。正是由于经历过太多痛苦和磨难,人类倍加珍视合作共赢、谋求共同福祉、推进世界进步。当今世界,国与国之间相互联系、相互依存,越来越成为命运与共、休戚相关的共同体,不是部分人反对部分人,而是所有人需要所有人。
中国的发展是为了让本国人民过上好日子,也让世界各国人民都过上好日子,而不是要与谁“零和博弈”。这一代表了历史正义和世界潮流的伟大进程,是谁都阻挡不住的。历史经验一再告诉人们,用零和博弈和冷战思维处理国际事务,其结果只能是自废武功、自毁长城,让美国陷入自己制造的“战略陷阱”。

 3.人民日报:狂风骤雨不能掀翻大海,逆势而动必将失败
“拒绝全球化就是拒绝太阳升起。”几年前,美国资深记者乔治·帕克曾对美国国内发出过这样的警告。
令人遗憾的是,美国一些政客完全无视逆耳忠言、不管不顾历史浪潮,公然声称今后“美国主义而不是全球主义将成为我们的信条”。他们把自己关进黑屋子,没完没了干各种不合时宜、损人害己的蠢事。他们搬出锈迹斑斑的“冷兵器”,动辄以关税施压,滥用“国家安全审查”,搅得各国不得安生。
“吹灭别人的灯,会烧掉自己的胡子。”贸易战带来的是“美国人整个购物车里的东西都涨价”“这是美国消费者自己在埋单”。2018年美国农民净收入同比下降16%,跌至10年前国际金融危机发生时的水平。
美国四处挑起贸易战,已经严重破坏了世界经济秩序、破坏了“全球公共产品”。世贸组织已将2019年全球贸易增长预期从3.7%下调至2.6%,为3年来最低水平。这表明,恰恰是美国无视国际责任,再一次给世界制造了“衰退陷阱”。
美国在逆全球化路上正越走越远。而中国始终以责任和笃行全力支持全球化,向世界传递出中国担当——中国始终是世界和平的建设者、全球发展的贡献者、国际秩序的维护者。今日中国之开放,不是被动地跟随同行,而是主动地引领潮流,为站在“十字路口”的世界注入确定性。一退一进,公理在哪边?道义在哪边?人心在哪边?历史自有公论。
世界潮流,浩浩荡荡,顺之则昌,逆之则亡。一个国家不管有怎样的实力,倘若与潮流为敌、同大势作对,必然会碰得头破血流。今天的地球村早已不是蒙昧的原始部落,关起门来朝天过的日子也早已一去不复返,让世界经济的大海退回到一个一个孤立的小湖泊、小河流注定没有出路。我们奉劝那些美国政客:一味逆历史潮流而动必将失败!

 4.人民日报:搞科技霸权就是阻碍发展进步 拒绝竞争必将失败
作为世界上的科技强国和经济大国,美方本应该明白科技发展的规律、懂得市场竞争的好处。然而,一些美国政客刻意忽视常识,频频人为干涉正常的科技合作和市场竞争。如果实在找不到理由,就拿“国家安全”说事。人们不禁好奇,如果动不动就能威胁美国“国家安全”,那这个头号科技强国也未免太脆弱了。
明眼人一看就知,美方之所以以“国家安全”为由打压中国企业,无非是要遏制中国科技发展势头,为美国企业在全球抢夺5G技术等高科技领域市场、维持在国际产业分工中的垄断地位赢得空间和时间。这样的图谋,暴露的正是美国那种“只许自己发展、不许他人进步”的霸权心态。
其实,用卑劣手段打压竞争对手、人为阻隔互利双赢的合作,非但不会助推美国信息技术进步,反而只会迫使美国企业使用落后却昂贵的替代设备,在5G网络建设中落后于其他国家。用非正常手段为本国发展立起一把临时的“保护伞”,是不能将“假威风”变成“真本事”的。
市场经济的基本特征就是竞争。一个公平的良性竞争环境,可以不断激发市场主体的活力,促进生产要素有序流动、资源高效配置、市场深度融合,推动经济高质量发展。一个张口闭口标榜“自由竞争”“市场经济”的美国,自己却无法理性对待竞争,无视国际贸易规则,动辄挥舞贸易保护主义大棒,打压他国科技企业,此等言行不一,又如何取信于国际社会?!
几十年前,中国在被西方封锁的艰难条件下,依然造出了“两弹一星”。今天,中国科技创新发展的步伐更不会因美国一些政客的鼓噪和干扰就停下来。奉劝那些美国政客一句:想用强权独霸阻遏中国科技进步的强劲势头,想用围追堵截打压中国发展壮大的正当权利,注定是枉费心机!美国不可能靠雕虫小技、旁门左道保持领先地位。

5.人民日报:玩弄强权注定失道寡助,唯我独尊必将失败
西方有句谚语:自知之明是最难得的知识。然而,美国的一些政客就是看不清自己,也看不清世界大势,硬要走唯我独尊、强权政治的老路。
支撑唯我独尊、恣意妄为的,是赤裸裸的霸权主义逻辑:美国定下的规矩就是全世界的法律,为了确保美国的利益,其他国家必须无条件让步。那些“手拿锤子”的美国政客,把正常的经济往来也视为钉子,看不得中国人民也能和美国人民一样过上富足的日子。
时至今日,为什么美国一些政客还沉浸在“天选之国”的迷思当中?还在做着“山巅之国”美梦?根本原因还是他们依旧信奉着那套“强权即真理”的旧观念,对世界的印象还停留在“丛林法则”的旧时代,对国家间关系还秉持着“文明冲突”的旧思维。在世界多极化、经济全球化、文化多样化、社会信息化不可阻挡的今天,他们仍幻想自己就是这个世界的救世主,仍要把全世界当成是自家的后花园,以为可以横行霸道、为所欲为,甚至妄图以“美国优先”阻挡构建人类命运共同体的时代潮流。
美国国内的不平等源于其错误政策,而不应指责经济全球化。遗憾的是,美国一些政客讳疾忌医,自己给自己开错了药方,硬把他国说成是“让美国再次伟大”的障碍。把脏水往别人身上泼,这样的偏执和任性不仅是在转嫁国内矛盾,更会蒙蔽自己的双眼,错过自我改善的时机,导致误国误民。
人类历史发展到今天,没有哪一个国家甘于仰人鼻息、任人摆布。相互尊重、坦诚合作、互利共赢,方为各国应有的相处之道。中国有个成语叫“强极则辱”。任何一个国家,不走合作共赢的道路而醉心“零和博弈”,不遵公平竞争的规则而痴迷打压别国,不顾经济全球化的潮流而选择保守主义,到头来只会四面树敌、到处碰壁。翻一翻历史教科书,这方面的例证实在是太多了。
4010-hxvzhte6045404.jpg

 6.人民日报:“美国例外”是有害的文明优越论,双重标准必将失败
一段时间以来,美国一些政客手握双重标准,在贸易、债务、规则、人权等领域大放厥词,暴露出混乱的逻辑和倨傲的姿态。
比如,在世界贸易组织规则问题上,众所周知美国才是迄今为止最大的“不守规矩者”,然而美国一些政客却颠倒黑白,指责中国破坏世贸规则。又如,在全球气候变化问题上,明明是美方拒绝在共同文本中提及“气候变化”,导致北极理事会部长级会议20多年来第一次未能发表联合声明,但美国国务卿蓬佩奥却指鹿为马,称中俄两国可能对北极造成生态破坏的威胁。凡此种种,无不暴露出美国“高于规则”的虚妄幻觉、予取予求的蛮横心态。
“美国例外”的本质,是一种文明优越论,即美国与其他任何国家都不一样,“注定是伟大的”并且“必将领导世界”。美国一些政客之所以有恃无恐,明目张胆大搞“美国例外”,归根结底在于深埋心中的霸权思维作祟。他们费尽心机编织各种谎言、找寻各种借口,实质上是打压别国正当发展权益,是以政治手段肆意干扰经济活动的霸凌主义行径。蓬佩奥以危害国家安全为由四处游说,威逼利诱各国政府拒绝同华为公司合作,恰是对美国标榜的市场规则、国际贸易准则的肆意践踏。
再高明的魔术,也有被拆穿的时候,更何况是这些美国政客漏洞百出的言行。他们双重标准的所作所为,早已为国际社会所洞悉,常常沦为笑柄。在相互联系日益紧密的地球村,世界各国比历史上任何时候都需要增强规则意识,在通力合作中共同应对人类社会面临的风险和挑战。美国一些政客无权以牺牲别国正当利益为代价来维护自身优势地位,更不可能靠缺少道义的鲁莽之举“再次伟大”。正如美国哥伦比亚大学经济学教授杰弗里·萨克斯所说,在各国利益密切交融、命运息息相关之时,“美国例外”的论调很可能让美国变成“21世纪的无赖国家”。
e399-hxvzhte6046499.jpg

 7.人民日报:信用破产是最大的破产,言而无信必将失败
美方在中美经贸磋商过程中言而无信、反复无常,前一刻说出的话,下一秒就能自我推翻,翻脸的速度比翻书还快。就连美国媒体也充满了质疑和忧虑:“对中国的策略变来变去,很可能会反伤美国自己”。
回顾中美经贸高级别磋商历程,人们可以将美国一些政客所谓“交易艺术”看得更加清楚。去年5月19日,中美双方达成不打贸易战的共识,仅仅10天后,美方就公然违背承诺、挥起关税大棒;今年5月5日,美方又重启关税威胁,使双方磋商遭受严重挫折。美方一些政客罔顾事实,竟然给中国贴上“倒退”“背弃”的标签,指责中方“违背承诺”“出尔反尔”。
翻手为云、覆手为雨,美国的一些政客干得实在是太多了。“失信”的坏名声普通人都避之唯恐不及,为何美国政府在国际事务中毫无忌惮地玩变脸?深究起来,恐怕还是一些身居高位的美国政客,错把国家之间的交往当成了一场纯粹的商业投机活动,误以为国与国之间只有零和博弈。这些政客一门心思盘算着如何实现自身利益最大化,国家的道义形象早已弃之如敝屣。食言而肥,终会自酿苦果。如今,世人有一个共同感受,就是美国的公信力大厦根基正被华盛顿一些政客的言而无信蚕食,长此以往,终将岌岌可危。
在世界经济的大海中,各国互通有无,船只川流不息,靠的是信用之帆和规矩之锚。互信是国际关系中最好的黏合剂。中国愿同其他国家一道,坚持把对话协商利用起来,坚持把多边主义奉行到底,共同守护好人类社会的“信用堤坝”。只要坚持求同存异、聚同化异,通过坦诚深入的对话沟通,就一定能增进战略互信,持续推进国家间广泛合作,造福各国人民。华盛顿的决策者必须改弦更张,言行一致、表里如一,回到重信守诺的轨道上来。

 8.人民日报:难道非要撞了南墙才回头,一意孤行必将失败
“一场经贸摩擦,让世界看到了一个有担当负责任的中国和一个一意孤行的美国。”埃及《金字塔报》资深记者萨米·卡姆哈维的话意味深长。
今天的世界,是一个经济全球化、世界多极化深入发展的世界,也是一个各国利益日益交融、命运与共的世界。美国一些政客无视历史潮流、无视反对声音,说到底,无非是只想当随意制定规则的“吹哨员”,不想做遵守规则的“运动员”;无非是只想自己单赢,不想各国共同发展。于是,“让美国再次伟大”成了将美国利益凌驾于别国正当利益和国际社会共同利益之上的“正当理由”,“贸易零和”成了对国际规则和国际机制“合则用,不合则退,不合则毁”的堂皇借口。如此蛮横无理,还有何公义可言?
哪怕是在美国国内,这样的一意孤行,也遭到各界有识之士的强烈谴责和反对。前不久,阿迪达斯、耐克、彪马以及美国170多家鞋类制造商和零售商联合致函美国政府,指出美国对中国输美鞋类产品加征关税,将对美消费者、制鞋企业和美国经济造成灾难性后果。然而,美国这些政客全然不顾“贸易管用,但关税不管用”的呼声一浪高过一浪,全然不顾美国农民无奈诉说他们正在经历“艰难的经济时刻”,依然我行我素、执迷不悟。
一味任性胡来,是对美国自身国际信誉和国际形象的损耗,也是对世界各国合作大环境的搅扰破坏。美国那些政客是不是该想一想,为什么美国针对华为的禁令一出,多位欧洲国家领导人就明确表示,封杀华为毫无先见之明,欧洲国家不准备效法美国?得道多助,失道寡助。我们奉劝美国那些政客听听美国社会各界的呼声,听听世界各国的批评警告,及早醒悟、迷途知返,莫要一条道走到黑,不撞南墙不回头。

 9.人民日报钟声:机关算尽一场空,自作聪明必将失败
中国有句老话,叫做“聪明反被聪明误”,用在美国一些自以为是、自作聪明的政客身上,可谓恰如其分。
从刚打贸易战时认为“贸易战是件好事且很容易打赢”,到主观认为“极限施压”就能迫使别人“就范”;从把出尔反尔当作“交易艺术”,到滥用国家力量抹黑和打压他国企业;从处心积虑炮制“中国盗窃知识产权论”,到耸人听闻地抛出“对华文明冲突论”……美国一些政客不停地折腾,让世人看到了什么叫“机关算尽”。然而,这样的小聪明,除了让一些人陶醉于自欺欺人的“胜利”,对世界来说是十足的负能量。
美方的自作聪明,无非是想通过种种“小动作”攫取更多利益。殊不知,美方在向全世界开火的同时,也是在向自己开火。最近,美方加大对华为公司的封锁打压力度,美国科技股应声下跌,多家关联美国公司的股票受到重创,为华盛顿一些政客鼓噪的“科技冷战”埋单。
美国数学家图克曾说:“假如大家都想最大化自己的利益,最终往往会落得两败俱伤的结果。”美方的自作聪明,骨子里还是“零和博弈”的思维。然而,美方低估了他国维护核心利益的能力和决心。已有多个国家对美国挑起贸易争端采取反制措施,并在世界贸易组织起诉美国。美方想当然认为通过对几千亿美元的输美中国商品加征关税就能把中国吓倒,那是打错算盘了。
读读历史就能明白,真正的智慧来自合作共赢,自作聪明、以邻为壑,路只能越走越窄。 中美作为两个大国,合则两利、斗则俱伤,公平合作是双方唯一正确的选择。美方的政客倘若看不清历史大势,依旧沉迷于自以为是、挑起对抗、恫吓施压、升级冲突,注定只能是机关算尽一场空。

The People’s Daily 9 on the United States will surely fail: no words, no words, no intentions!
The People’s Daily 9 on the United States will surely fail: no words, no words, no intentions!

From May 23 to 31, the People’s Daily published a series of comments on the signature bell. The commentary believes that from ignoring the rules, zero-sum game, contrarian, refusing to compete, only respecting me to double standards, saying nothing, being arrogant, self-motivated, if the United States is determined by the temper to "walk to the black", that is I chose a road to abandoning. This road is destined to have only one end, that is, failure!

The nine review articles were published as follows:

1. People's Daily: The international order is not tolerant, and ignoring the rules will fail

For more than a year, the US has arbitrarily waved tariffs and provoked trade disputes everywhere. It is like a bull that broke into a porcelain store. It has arbitrarily attacked the rules-based multilateral trading system and played with rules and order. Become the biggest "troublemaker" in the international community.

The essence of Sino-US trade disputes is that the US bypasses the World Trade Organization dispute settlement mechanism and provokes international trade frictions in accordance with US domestic laws. The large-scale imposition of tariffs on Chinese goods by the United States without the authorization of the WTO is a disregard of national commitments and WTO rules, and a willfulness to impose unilateral rules above international rules.

"The rule-based international system is being threatened. What is surprising is that it is not the other countries that are threatening, but the United States that is leading the construction of this system." The President of the European Council Tusk said that the world is willful to the United States. Defiance and anxiety.

The successive withdrawal of a series of international treaties has forced a renewed discussion on the North American Free Trade Agreement and the US-South Korea Free Trade Agreement. The unilateralism of the United States poses a major challenge to international rules and global governance.

The United States is obsessed with undermining international rules. The logical starting point is to seek self-interest by means of power. I think that we can rely on power to suppress our opponents. The US has high-profile claims that bilateral pressure is more "efficient" than multilateral mechanisms, and tariffs are more "efficient" than rule building.

The United States deliberately challenged the rules with power and attempted to crush the rules as a plasticine. However, it is more than a hegemonic era with a thick arm and a strong arm. The world's affairs can only be discussed by countries. The United States has a unilateralist mindset that can only create trouble for itself and other countries. The anti-rules are arrogant and destined to be hit with a bruise and a swollen face. The goal of "again great" will only be a laughing hand.

The world's development trend will never be transferred by the will of anyone. When the United States is obsessed with breaking the rules, another "hedging" and "construction" are quietly taking place. Maintaining multilateralism and a rules-based multilateral trading system is the fundamental interest of the international community and a strong voice of all countries. The United States’ contempt for the rule is to deliberately undermine the common welfare of the international community and the legitimate interests of all countries in the world. This kind of arrogance is unreasonable and unpopular. After all, there will be no good fruit to eat.

2. People's Daily: Fair cooperation is the only correct choice, zero-sum game will fail

A Western historian once said that the reason why people fall into irreparable disasters is often because of their stupidity. American politicians whose bodies have entered the 21st century but whose heads remain in the old days of the Cold War mentality and zero-sum game are providing new examples of this assertion.

At present, zero-sum thinking stubbornness is raging in the US decision-making circle. Some people see that US trade has a deficit and will arbitrarily impose tariffs on trading partners. Seeing other countries' scientific and technological innovations will smother others as intellectual property thieves; seeing the “Belt and Road” As the "friend circle" grows bigger and bigger, it is rumored by the "debt trap". When China's international influence is rising, it will ruin China.

These people do not hesitate to use diplomatic, economic, and even military resources to try to achieve the ugly purpose of "feeding themselves and starving to death" through intimidation, sanctions, and even war. As everyone knows, these sinister behaviors, not only can not make the United States "re-great", will only make the United States into serious self-consumption.

As the two major powers, China and the United States are the only correct choices for both sides. This will not only benefit the two countries and the two peoples, but will also have a tremendous impact on world peace and prosperity. Any wrong thinking and strategic misjudgment may trigger global chain reaction.

In history, some people have been fascinated by hegemonic status and monopoly interests, dragging the world into the hot war and the cold war, and bringing profound disasters to the entire human society. It is precisely because of too much pain and hardship that human beings cherish the cooperation and win-win situation, seek common welfare, and advance the world. In today's world, countries are interrelated and interdependent, and they are increasingly becoming a community of destiny and commonness. Some people do not oppose some people, but everyone needs everyone.

China's development is to let its people live a good life, and let the people of all countries in the world live a good life, not to be "zero-sum game." This represents a great process of historical justice and world trends, and no one can stop it. Historical experience has repeatedly told people that using zero-sum games and cold war mentality to deal with international affairs can only result in self-destruction of martial arts, self-destruction of the Great Wall, and the United States into a "strategic trap" of its own manufacture.

3. People's Daily: The squally showers cannot overturn the sea, and the contrarian will surely fail.

"Rejecting globalization means rejecting the rise of the sun." A few years ago, senior US correspondent George Parker issued such a warning to the United States.

Regrettably, some politicians in the United States have completely ignored the bad words, regardless of the historical wave, and openly claimed that "Americanism, not globalism, will become our creed." They put themselves in the dark room, and they did not finish all kinds of stupid things that were out of place and harmed others. They moved out of the rusty "cold weapons" and used the pressure of tariffs to abuse the "national security review", which made the countries unsafe.

"Blowing out other people’s lights will burn off their beards." The trade war brought "the Americans’ prices in the entire shopping cart are rising." "This is the American consumer who is paying the bills himself." In 2018, the net income of American farmers fell by 16% year-on-year, falling to the level of the international financial crisis 10 years ago.

The United States has provoked trade wars everywhere, which has seriously damaged the world economic order and undermined "global public goods." The WTO has lowered its global trade growth forecast for 2019 from 3.7% to 2.6%, the lowest level in three years. This shows that it is precisely the United States that ignores international responsibility and once again creates a “recession trap” for the world.

The United States is moving further and further on the road to counter globalization. China has always supported the globalization with responsibility and dedication, and has delivered China to the world. China has always been a builder of world peace, a contributor to global development, and a defender of the international order. Today's opening up in China is not passively following the peers, but actively leading the trend and injecting certainty into the world of "crossroads." One step back, where is the axiom? Where is morality? Where is the human heart? History has its own public opinion.

The trend of the world is vast and prosperous. No matter what strength a country has, if it is against the trend and against the general trend, it will inevitably hit the blood. Today's global village is no longer a primitive tribe of obscurity. The days of closing the door to the sky have long gone, leaving the sea of the world economy back to an isolated small lake, and the small river is destined to have no way out. We advise those American politicians that they will fail in the face of historical trends!

4. People's Daily: Engaging in technology hegemony is hindering development and progress. Rejecting competition will fail.

As a technological power and economic power in the world, the United States should understand the laws governing the development of science and technology and understand the benefits of market competition. However, some American politicians deliberately ignore common sense and frequently interfere with normal scientific and technological cooperation and market competition. If you can't find a reason, let's take "national security." People can't help but wonder if it can threaten the "national security" of the United States if it doesn't move, then the number one technology power is too weak.

The discerning person knows at a glance that the reason why the US side suppresses Chinese enterprises on the grounds of "national security" is nothing more than to curb the momentum of China's scientific and technological development, and to maintain the international industrial division of labor in the high-tech market such as 5G technology. Monopoly gains space and time. Such a plot is exposed to the hegemonic mentality of the United States that "only allows itself to develop and not allow others to progress."

In fact, using despicable means to suppress competitors and artificially block mutually beneficial cooperation will not only boost US information technology progress, but will only force US companies to use backward but expensive alternative equipment to lag behind other countries in the construction of 5G networks. It is impossible to turn "fake prestige" into "true skill" by using a non-normal means to establish a temporary "protective umbrella" for the development of the country.

The basic feature of a market economy is competition. A fair and benign competitive environment can continuously stimulate the vitality of market players, promote orderly flow of production factors, efficient allocation of resources, deep integration of markets, and promote high-quality economic development. A United States that slams its mouth and advertises "free competition" and "market economy" cannot rationally treat competition, ignore international trade rules, and sway trade protectionism and suppress other countries' technology enterprises. These words are different and how to win the trust. The international community? !

A few decades ago, under the difficult conditions of the Western blockade, China still created "two bombs and one star." Today, the pace of China's scientific and technological innovation development will not stop because of the noise and interference of some US politicians. I would like to advise those American politicians that they want to use power to dominate the strong momentum of China's scientific and technological progress, and want to use the right to chase and block the legitimate right to develop and grow in China, which is destined to be a waste of effort! It is impossible for the United States to maintain its leading position by carving small insects and sideways.

5. People's Daily: Playing with power is doomed to helplessness, but I will fail if I am alone

There is a saying in the West: self-knowledge is the most rare knowledge. However, some politicians in the United States cannot see themselves clearly, nor can they see the world's general trend. They must follow the old path of my own respect and power politics.

Supporting me alone and arrogant is the naked hegemonic logic: the rules set by the United States are the laws of the whole world. In order to ensure the interests of the United States, other countries must make unconditional concessions. The American politicians who "have a hammer" regard normal economic exchanges as nails, and can't see that the Chinese people can live as rich as the American people.

Today, why are some politicians in the United States still immersed in the myth of the "land of heaven"? Still doing the dream of "the country of the mountains"? The root cause is that they still believe in the old concept of "power is the truth". The impression of the world still stays in the old era of "the law of the jungle", and the old-fashioned thinking of "clash of civilizations" is still held for the relationship between countries. Today, when the world is multi-polarized, economic globalization, cultural diversity, and social information is unstoppable, they still imagine that they are the savior of this world. They still have to regard the whole world as their own back garden, thinking that they can be arrogant and do whatever they want. Even the attempt to block the construction of the human destiny community with the "American priority".

Inequality in the United States stems from its wrong policies and should not blame economic globalization. Regrettably, some politicians in the United States are ill-advised, and they have made the wrong prescription for themselves, and have hardly described other countries as an obstacle to "making the United States great again." Spilling dirty water on others, such paranoia and waywardness are not only to pass on domestic contradictions, but also to blind their own eyes, miss the opportunity of self-improvement, leading to mistakes and mistakes.

As human history has developed to this day, no country is willing to be arrogant and arbitrary. Mutual respect, frank cooperation, mutual benefit and win-win situation are the ways for countries to get along. There is an idiom in China called "Strongly insulting." Any country that does not take the road of cooperation and win-win is immersed in the "zero-sum game". It does not follow the rules of fair competition and is obsessed with suppressing other countries. In spite of the trend of economic globalization, it chooses conservatism. In the end, it will only be surrounded by enemies and hit the wall everywhere. . Looking at history textbooks, there are too many examples in this regard.

6. People's Daily: "The US exception" is a harmful civilization superiority theory, and double standards will fail

For some time, some politicians in the United States have held double standards and put a lot of words in the fields of trade, debt, rules, and human rights, exposing the logic of chaos and the attitude of arrogance.

For example, on the issue of rules of the World Trade Organization, the United States is known to be the biggest "unruly person" to date. However, some US politicians have turned black and white and accused China of undermining the WTO rules. In another example, on the issue of global climate change, it is clear that the US refused to mention “climate change” in the common text, which led to the first time the Arctic Council Ministerial Conference failed to issue a joint statement for more than 20 years, but the US Secretary of State Pompeo However, it refers to the deer as a horse, saying that China and Russia may threaten the ecological damage caused by the Arctic. All these kinds of things all reveal the illusory illusion of the United States "above the rules" and the arrogant mentality of seeking for it.

The essence of the "US exception" is a theory of civil superiority, that is, the United States is different from any other country, "destined to be great" and "will lead the world." The reason why some politicians in the United States are fearless and brazenly engage in "the exception of the United States" is, in the final analysis, the hegemonic thinking that is deeply buried in the mind. They have tried their best to weave all kinds of lies and find various excuses. In fact, they are suppressing the legitimate development rights of other countries and using political means to interfere with economic activities. Pompeo lobbied around on the grounds of endangering national security. The coercion and inducement of governments to refuse to cooperate with Huawei is precisely the arbitrage of the US market rules and international trade standards.

The magic of the more brilliant, but also when it was dismantled, let alone the words and deeds of these American politicians. Their double standards of doing things have long been known to the international community and often become a laughing stock. In the global villages where the interconnections are increasingly close, countries all over the world need to enhance the awareness of rules at all times in history, and jointly cope with the risks and challenges faced by human society in cooperation. Some politicians in the United States have no right to maintain their dominant position at the expense of the legitimate interests of other countries, and it is even more impossible to "re-great" by the lack of moral recklessness. As Jeffrey Sachs, a professor of economics at Columbia University in the United States, said, when the interests of all countries are closely intertwined and the fate is closely related, the "American exception" argument is likely to turn the United States into a "rogue state in the 21st century."

7. People's Daily: Credit bankruptcy is the biggest bankruptcy, and no words will fail

In the process of Sino-US economic and trade consultations, the US side has no words and volatility. When it is said at the moment, it will be able to overthrow itself in the next second, and it will be faster than turning a book. Even the US media is full of doubts and worries: "The strategy for China has changed, and it is likely to hurt the United States itself."

Looking back at the high-level consultation process between China and the United States, people can see the so-called "trade art" of some American politicians more clearly. On May 19 last year, China and the United States reached a consensus not to fight trade wars. In just 10 days, the US side blatantly violated its commitments and waved its tariffs. On May 5 this year, the US side restarted the tariff threats, causing serious negotiations between the two sides. frustration. Some politicians in the United States disregarded the facts and even labeled China with "regression" and "abandonment" and accused the Chinese of "violating their commitments" and "reversing their anger."

人民日报九论美国必将失败:言而无信、一意孤行!

人民日报九论美国必将失败:言而无信、一意孤行!






从5月23日到31日,人民日报连续刊发署名钟声的评论。评论认为,从无视规则、零和博弈、逆势而动、拒绝竞争、唯我独尊到双重标准、言而无信、一意孤行、自作聪明,倘若美方由着性子定要“一条道走到黑”,那就是选择了一条自弃之路,这条路注定只有一个终点,那就是失败!
9篇评论文章摘发如下:
8ee9-hxvzhte6041082.jpg

1.人民日报:国际秩序容不得任性妄为,无视规则必将失败
一年多来,美方肆意挥舞关税大棒,四处挑起贸易争端,犹如一头“闯进瓷器店的公牛”,肆意冲击以规则为基础的多边贸易体制,把规则、秩序玩弄于股掌之中,成为国际社会最大的“麻烦制造者”。
中美贸易争端的实质,是美方绕开世界贸易组织争端解决机制,根据美国国内法挑起国际贸易摩擦。美国在未经世贸组织授权情况下对中国商品大规模加征关税,是对本国承诺和世贸组织规则的无视,是将单边规则凌驾于国际规则之上的任性妄为。
“基于规则的国际体制正在受到威胁,令人吃惊的是,造成威胁的不是别国,而是主导构建这一体系的美国。”欧洲理事会主席图斯克这番话道出了世人对美国任性之举的鄙视和忧虑。
接连退出一系列国际条约,强制要求重谈北美自由贸易协定和美韩自贸协定,美国的单边主义行为,对国际规则和全球治理构成重大挑战。
美国执迷于破坏国际规则,逻辑出发点是以强权手段谋求一己私利。自以为可以靠强权压服对手,美方高调宣称,双边施压比多边机制更“高效”、关税大棒比规则建设更“高效”。
美国刻意以强权挑战规则,妄图把规则当橡皮泥任意碾压。但是,比谁的胳膊粗、气力大的霸权时代一去不返,世界上的事情只能由各国商量着办。美国抱定单边主义思维,只能是给自己和他国制造麻烦。逆规则肆意妄为,注定要被撞得鼻青脸肿,“再次伟大”的目标只会徒留笑柄。
世界发展大势从来不会以任何人的意志为转移。当美国执迷于破坏规则,另一种“对冲”与“建设”也在悄然进行。维护多边主义和以规则为基础的多边贸易体制,是国际社会的根本利益所在,也是各国的强烈呼声。美国蔑视规则,就是在肆意损害国际社会的共同福祉和世界各国的正当利益。这样的蛮横无理,不得人心,终究也不会有什么好果子吃。

 2.人民日报:公平合作是唯一正确的选择,零和博弈必将失败
一位西方历史学家曾经这样说,人们之所以陷入不可挽回的灾难,常常是因为自己的愚蠢。那些身体已进入21世纪,但脑袋还停留在冷战思维、零和博弈旧时代的美国政客,正在为这一论断提供新的例证。
当前,零和思维顽症在美国决策圈肆虐,一些人看到美国贸易有逆差就肆意对贸易伙伴加征关税;看到别国科技创新成果就污蔑别人是知识产权小偷;看到“一带一路”的“朋友圈”越来越大就打着“债务陷阱”幌子四处造谣;看到中国的国际影响力日益提升就满世界污蔑中伤中国。
这些人不惜动用外交、经济乃至军事资源,通过恐吓、制裁乃至战争手段,试图达到“喂饱自己、饿死别人”的丑陋目的。殊不知,这些鼠目寸光的行为,非但不能让美国“再次伟大”,只会让美国陷入严重自耗。
中美作为两个大国,合作是双方唯一正确的选择,这不仅有利于两国和两国人民,还将对世界和平与繁荣产生巨大作用,任何错误思维和战略误判,都有可能引发全球连锁反应。
历史上,曾有一些人醉心于霸权地位和垄断利益,把世界拖入热战、冷战,给整个人类社会带来深重灾难。正是由于经历过太多痛苦和磨难,人类倍加珍视合作共赢、谋求共同福祉、推进世界进步。当今世界,国与国之间相互联系、相互依存,越来越成为命运与共、休戚相关的共同体,不是部分人反对部分人,而是所有人需要所有人。
中国的发展是为了让本国人民过上好日子,也让世界各国人民都过上好日子,而不是要与谁“零和博弈”。这一代表了历史正义和世界潮流的伟大进程,是谁都阻挡不住的。历史经验一再告诉人们,用零和博弈和冷战思维处理国际事务,其结果只能是自废武功、自毁长城,让美国陷入自己制造的“战略陷阱”。

 3.人民日报:狂风骤雨不能掀翻大海,逆势而动必将失败
“拒绝全球化就是拒绝太阳升起。”几年前,美国资深记者乔治·帕克曾对美国国内发出过这样的警告。
令人遗憾的是,美国一些政客完全无视逆耳忠言、不管不顾历史浪潮,公然声称今后“美国主义而不是全球主义将成为我们的信条”。他们把自己关进黑屋子,没完没了干各种不合时宜、损人害己的蠢事。他们搬出锈迹斑斑的“冷兵器”,动辄以关税施压,滥用“国家安全审查”,搅得各国不得安生。
“吹灭别人的灯,会烧掉自己的胡子。”贸易战带来的是“美国人整个购物车里的东西都涨价”“这是美国消费者自己在埋单”。2018年美国农民净收入同比下降16%,跌至10年前国际金融危机发生时的水平。
美国四处挑起贸易战,已经严重破坏了世界经济秩序、破坏了“全球公共产品”。世贸组织已将2019年全球贸易增长预期从3.7%下调至2.6%,为3年来最低水平。这表明,恰恰是美国无视国际责任,再一次给世界制造了“衰退陷阱”。
美国在逆全球化路上正越走越远。而中国始终以责任和笃行全力支持全球化,向世界传递出中国担当——中国始终是世界和平的建设者、全球发展的贡献者、国际秩序的维护者。今日中国之开放,不是被动地跟随同行,而是主动地引领潮流,为站在“十字路口”的世界注入确定性。一退一进,公理在哪边?道义在哪边?人心在哪边?历史自有公论。
世界潮流,浩浩荡荡,顺之则昌,逆之则亡。一个国家不管有怎样的实力,倘若与潮流为敌、同大势作对,必然会碰得头破血流。今天的地球村早已不是蒙昧的原始部落,关起门来朝天过的日子也早已一去不复返,让世界经济的大海退回到一个一个孤立的小湖泊、小河流注定没有出路。我们奉劝那些美国政客:一味逆历史潮流而动必将失败!

 4.人民日报:搞科技霸权就是阻碍发展进步 拒绝竞争必将失败
作为世界上的科技强国和经济大国,美方本应该明白科技发展的规律、懂得市场竞争的好处。然而,一些美国政客刻意忽视常识,频频人为干涉正常的科技合作和市场竞争。如果实在找不到理由,就拿“国家安全”说事。人们不禁好奇,如果动不动就能威胁美国“国家安全”,那这个头号科技强国也未免太脆弱了。
明眼人一看就知,美方之所以以“国家安全”为由打压中国企业,无非是要遏制中国科技发展势头,为美国企业在全球抢夺5G技术等高科技领域市场、维持在国际产业分工中的垄断地位赢得空间和时间。这样的图谋,暴露的正是美国那种“只许自己发展、不许他人进步”的霸权心态。
其实,用卑劣手段打压竞争对手、人为阻隔互利双赢的合作,非但不会助推美国信息技术进步,反而只会迫使美国企业使用落后却昂贵的替代设备,在5G网络建设中落后于其他国家。用非正常手段为本国发展立起一把临时的“保护伞”,是不能将“假威风”变成“真本事”的。
市场经济的基本特征就是竞争。一个公平的良性竞争环境,可以不断激发市场主体的活力,促进生产要素有序流动、资源高效配置、市场深度融合,推动经济高质量发展。一个张口闭口标榜“自由竞争”“市场经济”的美国,自己却无法理性对待竞争,无视国际贸易规则,动辄挥舞贸易保护主义大棒,打压他国科技企业,此等言行不一,又如何取信于国际社会?!
几十年前,中国在被西方封锁的艰难条件下,依然造出了“两弹一星”。今天,中国科技创新发展的步伐更不会因美国一些政客的鼓噪和干扰就停下来。奉劝那些美国政客一句:想用强权独霸阻遏中国科技进步的强劲势头,想用围追堵截打压中国发展壮大的正当权利,注定是枉费心机!美国不可能靠雕虫小技、旁门左道保持领先地位。

5.人民日报:玩弄强权注定失道寡助,唯我独尊必将失败
西方有句谚语:自知之明是最难得的知识。然而,美国的一些政客就是看不清自己,也看不清世界大势,硬要走唯我独尊、强权政治的老路。
支撑唯我独尊、恣意妄为的,是赤裸裸的霸权主义逻辑:美国定下的规矩就是全世界的法律,为了确保美国的利益,其他国家必须无条件让步。那些“手拿锤子”的美国政客,把正常的经济往来也视为钉子,看不得中国人民也能和美国人民一样过上富足的日子。
时至今日,为什么美国一些政客还沉浸在“天选之国”的迷思当中?还在做着“山巅之国”美梦?根本原因还是他们依旧信奉着那套“强权即真理”的旧观念,对世界的印象还停留在“丛林法则”的旧时代,对国家间关系还秉持着“文明冲突”的旧思维。在世界多极化、经济全球化、文化多样化、社会信息化不可阻挡的今天,他们仍幻想自己就是这个世界的救世主,仍要把全世界当成是自家的后花园,以为可以横行霸道、为所欲为,甚至妄图以“美国优先”阻挡构建人类命运共同体的时代潮流。
美国国内的不平等源于其错误政策,而不应指责经济全球化。遗憾的是,美国一些政客讳疾忌医,自己给自己开错了药方,硬把他国说成是“让美国再次伟大”的障碍。把脏水往别人身上泼,这样的偏执和任性不仅是在转嫁国内矛盾,更会蒙蔽自己的双眼,错过自我改善的时机,导致误国误民。
人类历史发展到今天,没有哪一个国家甘于仰人鼻息、任人摆布。相互尊重、坦诚合作、互利共赢,方为各国应有的相处之道。中国有个成语叫“强极则辱”。任何一个国家,不走合作共赢的道路而醉心“零和博弈”,不遵公平竞争的规则而痴迷打压别国,不顾经济全球化的潮流而选择保守主义,到头来只会四面树敌、到处碰壁。翻一翻历史教科书,这方面的例证实在是太多了。
4010-hxvzhte6045404.jpg

 6.人民日报:“美国例外”是有害的文明优越论,双重标准必将失败
一段时间以来,美国一些政客手握双重标准,在贸易、债务、规则、人权等领域大放厥词,暴露出混乱的逻辑和倨傲的姿态。
比如,在世界贸易组织规则问题上,众所周知美国才是迄今为止最大的“不守规矩者”,然而美国一些政客却颠倒黑白,指责中国破坏世贸规则。又如,在全球气候变化问题上,明明是美方拒绝在共同文本中提及“气候变化”,导致北极理事会部长级会议20多年来第一次未能发表联合声明,但美国国务卿蓬佩奥却指鹿为马,称中俄两国可能对北极造成生态破坏的威胁。凡此种种,无不暴露出美国“高于规则”的虚妄幻觉、予取予求的蛮横心态。
“美国例外”的本质,是一种文明优越论,即美国与其他任何国家都不一样,“注定是伟大的”并且“必将领导世界”。美国一些政客之所以有恃无恐,明目张胆大搞“美国例外”,归根结底在于深埋心中的霸权思维作祟。他们费尽心机编织各种谎言、找寻各种借口,实质上是打压别国正当发展权益,是以政治手段肆意干扰经济活动的霸凌主义行径。蓬佩奥以危害国家安全为由四处游说,威逼利诱各国政府拒绝同华为公司合作,恰是对美国标榜的市场规则、国际贸易准则的肆意践踏。
再高明的魔术,也有被拆穿的时候,更何况是这些美国政客漏洞百出的言行。他们双重标准的所作所为,早已为国际社会所洞悉,常常沦为笑柄。在相互联系日益紧密的地球村,世界各国比历史上任何时候都需要增强规则意识,在通力合作中共同应对人类社会面临的风险和挑战。美国一些政客无权以牺牲别国正当利益为代价来维护自身优势地位,更不可能靠缺少道义的鲁莽之举“再次伟大”。正如美国哥伦比亚大学经济学教授杰弗里·萨克斯所说,在各国利益密切交融、命运息息相关之时,“美国例外”的论调很可能让美国变成“21世纪的无赖国家”。
e399-hxvzhte6046499.jpg

 7.人民日报:信用破产是最大的破产,言而无信必将失败
美方在中美经贸磋商过程中言而无信、反复无常,前一刻说出的话,下一秒就能自我推翻,翻脸的速度比翻书还快。就连美国媒体也充满了质疑和忧虑:“对中国的策略变来变去,很可能会反伤美国自己”。
回顾中美经贸高级别磋商历程,人们可以将美国一些政客所谓“交易艺术”看得更加清楚。去年5月19日,中美双方达成不打贸易战的共识,仅仅10天后,美方就公然违背承诺、挥起关税大棒;今年5月5日,美方又重启关税威胁,使双方磋商遭受严重挫折。美方一些政客罔顾事实,竟然给中国贴上“倒退”“背弃”的标签,指责中方“违背承诺”“出尔反尔”。
翻手为云、覆手为雨,美国的一些政客干得实在是太多了。“失信”的坏名声普通人都避之唯恐不及,为何美国政府在国际事务中毫无忌惮地玩变脸?深究起来,恐怕还是一些身居高位的美国政客,错把国家之间的交往当成了一场纯粹的商业投机活动,误以为国与国之间只有零和博弈。这些政客一门心思盘算着如何实现自身利益最大化,国家的道义形象早已弃之如敝屣。食言而肥,终会自酿苦果。如今,世人有一个共同感受,就是美国的公信力大厦根基正被华盛顿一些政客的言而无信蚕食,长此以往,终将岌岌可危。
在世界经济的大海中,各国互通有无,船只川流不息,靠的是信用之帆和规矩之锚。互信是国际关系中最好的黏合剂。中国愿同其他国家一道,坚持把对话协商利用起来,坚持把多边主义奉行到底,共同守护好人类社会的“信用堤坝”。只要坚持求同存异、聚同化异,通过坦诚深入的对话沟通,就一定能增进战略互信,持续推进国家间广泛合作,造福各国人民。华盛顿的决策者必须改弦更张,言行一致、表里如一,回到重信守诺的轨道上来。

 8.人民日报:难道非要撞了南墙才回头,一意孤行必将失败
“一场经贸摩擦,让世界看到了一个有担当负责任的中国和一个一意孤行的美国。”埃及《金字塔报》资深记者萨米·卡姆哈维的话意味深长。
今天的世界,是一个经济全球化、世界多极化深入发展的世界,也是一个各国利益日益交融、命运与共的世界。美国一些政客无视历史潮流、无视反对声音,说到底,无非是只想当随意制定规则的“吹哨员”,不想做遵守规则的“运动员”;无非是只想自己单赢,不想各国共同发展。于是,“让美国再次伟大”成了将美国利益凌驾于别国正当利益和国际社会共同利益之上的“正当理由”,“贸易零和”成了对国际规则和国际机制“合则用,不合则退,不合则毁”的堂皇借口。如此蛮横无理,还有何公义可言?
哪怕是在美国国内,这样的一意孤行,也遭到各界有识之士的强烈谴责和反对。前不久,阿迪达斯、耐克、彪马以及美国170多家鞋类制造商和零售商联合致函美国政府,指出美国对中国输美鞋类产品加征关税,将对美消费者、制鞋企业和美国经济造成灾难性后果。然而,美国这些政客全然不顾“贸易管用,但关税不管用”的呼声一浪高过一浪,全然不顾美国农民无奈诉说他们正在经历“艰难的经济时刻”,依然我行我素、执迷不悟。
一味任性胡来,是对美国自身国际信誉和国际形象的损耗,也是对世界各国合作大环境的搅扰破坏。美国那些政客是不是该想一想,为什么美国针对华为的禁令一出,多位欧洲国家领导人就明确表示,封杀华为毫无先见之明,欧洲国家不准备效法美国?得道多助,失道寡助。我们奉劝美国那些政客听听美国社会各界的呼声,听听世界各国的批评警告,及早醒悟、迷途知返,莫要一条道走到黑,不撞南墙不回头。

 9.人民日报钟声:机关算尽一场空,自作聪明必将失败
中国有句老话,叫做“聪明反被聪明误”,用在美国一些自以为是、自作聪明的政客身上,可谓恰如其分。
从刚打贸易战时认为“贸易战是件好事且很容易打赢”,到主观认为“极限施压”就能迫使别人“就范”;从把出尔反尔当作“交易艺术”,到滥用国家力量抹黑和打压他国企业;从处心积虑炮制“中国盗窃知识产权论”,到耸人听闻地抛出“对华文明冲突论”……美国一些政客不停地折腾,让世人看到了什么叫“机关算尽”。然而,这样的小聪明,除了让一些人陶醉于自欺欺人的“胜利”,对世界来说是十足的负能量。
美方的自作聪明,无非是想通过种种“小动作”攫取更多利益。殊不知,美方在向全世界开火的同时,也是在向自己开火。最近,美方加大对华为公司的封锁打压力度,美国科技股应声下跌,多家关联美国公司的股票受到重创,为华盛顿一些政客鼓噪的“科技冷战”埋单。
美国数学家图克曾说:“假如大家都想最大化自己的利益,最终往往会落得两败俱伤的结果。”美方的自作聪明,骨子里还是“零和博弈”的思维。然而,美方低估了他国维护核心利益的能力和决心。已有多个国家对美国挑起贸易争端采取反制措施,并在世界贸易组织起诉美国。美方想当然认为通过对几千亿美元的输美中国商品加征关税就能把中国吓倒,那是打错算盘了。
读读历史就能明白,真正的智慧来自合作共赢,自作聪明、以邻为壑,路只能越走越窄。 中美作为两个大国,合则两利、斗则俱伤,公平合作是双方唯一正确的选择。美方的政客倘若看不清历史大势,依旧沉迷于自以为是、挑起对抗、恫吓施压、升级冲突,注定只能是机关算尽一场空。

The People’s Daily 9 on the United States will surely fail: no words, no words, no intentions!

From May 23 to 31, the People’s Daily published a series of comments on the signature bell. The commentary believes that from ignoring the rules, zero-sum game, contrarian, refusing to compete, only respecting me to double standards, saying nothing, being arrogant, self-motivated, if the United States is determined by the temper to "walk to the black", that is I chose a road to abandoning. This road is destined to have only one end, that is, failure!

The nine review articles were published as follows:

1. People's Daily: The international order is not tolerant, and ignoring the rules will fail

For more than a year, the US has arbitrarily waved tariffs and provoked trade disputes everywhere. It is like a bull that broke into a porcelain store. It has arbitrarily attacked the rules-based multilateral trading system and played with rules and order. Become the biggest "troublemaker" in the international community.

The essence of Sino-US trade disputes is that the US bypasses the World Trade Organization dispute settlement mechanism and provokes international trade frictions in accordance with US domestic laws. The large-scale imposition of tariffs on Chinese goods by the United States without the authorization of the WTO is a disregard of national commitments and WTO rules, and a willfulness to impose unilateral rules above international rules.

"The rule-based international system is being threatened. What is surprising is that it is not the other countries that are threatening, but the United States that is leading the construction of this system." The President of the European Council Tusk said that the world is willful to the United States. Defiance and anxiety.

The successive withdrawal of a series of international treaties has forced a renewed discussion on the North American Free Trade Agreement and the US-South Korea Free Trade Agreement. The unilateralism of the United States poses a major challenge to international rules and global governance.

The United States is obsessed with undermining international rules. The logical starting point is to seek self-interest by means of power. I think that we can rely on power to suppress our opponents. The US has high-profile claims that bilateral pressure is more "efficient" than multilateral mechanisms, and tariffs are more "efficient" than rule building.

The United States deliberately challenged the rules with power and attempted to crush the rules as a plasticine. However, it is more than a hegemonic era with a thick arm and a strong arm. The world's affairs can only be discussed by countries. The United States has a unilateralist mindset that can only create trouble for itself and other countries. The anti-rules are arrogant and destined to be hit with a bruise and a swollen face. The goal of "again great" will only be a laughing hand.

The world's development trend will never be transferred by the will of anyone. When the United States is obsessed with breaking the rules, another "hedging" and "construction" are quietly taking place. Maintaining multilateralism and a rules-based multilateral trading system is the fundamental interest of the international community and a strong voice of all countries. The United States’ contempt for the rule is to deliberately undermine the common welfare of the international community and the legitimate interests of all countries in the world. This kind of arrogance is unreasonable and unpopular. After all, there will be no good fruit to eat.

2. People's Daily: Fair cooperation is the only correct choice, zero-sum game will fail

A Western historian once said that the reason why people fall into irreparable disasters is often because of their stupidity. American politicians whose bodies have entered the 21st century but whose heads remain in the old days of the Cold War mentality and zero-sum game are providing new examples of this assertion.

At present, zero-sum thinking stubbornness is raging in the US decision-making circle. Some people see that US trade has a deficit and will arbitrarily impose tariffs on trading partners. Seeing other countries' scientific and technological innovations will smother others as intellectual property thieves; seeing the “Belt and Road” As the "friend circle" grows bigger and bigger, it is rumored by the "debt trap". When China's international influence is rising, it will ruin China.

These people do not hesitate to use diplomatic, economic, and even military resources to try to achieve the ugly purpose of "feeding themselves and starving to death" through intimidation, sanctions, and even war. As everyone knows, these sinister behaviors, not only can not make the United States "re-great", will only make the United States into serious self-consumption.

As the two major powers, China and the United States are the only correct choices for both sides. This will not only benefit the two countries and the two peoples, but will also have a tremendous impact on world peace and prosperity. Any wrong thinking and strategic misjudgment may trigger global chain reaction.

In history, some people have been fascinated by hegemonic status and monopoly interests, dragging the world into the hot war and the cold war, and bringing profound disasters to the entire human society. It is precisely because of too much pain and hardship that human beings cherish the cooperation and win-win situation, seek common welfare, and advance the world. In today's world, countries are interrelated and interdependent, and they are increasingly becoming a community of destiny and commonness. Some people do not oppose some people, but everyone needs everyone.

China's development is to let its people live a good life, and let the people of all countries in the world live a good life, not to be "zero-sum game." This represents a great process of historical justice and world trends, and no one can stop it. Historical experience has repeatedly told people that using zero-sum games and cold war mentality to deal with international affairs can only result in self-destruction of martial arts, self-destruction of the Great Wall, and the United States into a "strategic trap" of its own manufacture.

3. People's Daily: The squally showers cannot overturn the sea, and the contrarian will surely fail.

"Rejecting globalization means rejecting the rise of the sun." A few years ago, senior US correspondent George Parker issued such a warning to the United States.

Regrettably, some politicians in the United States have completely ignored the bad words, regardless of the historical wave, and openly claimed that "Americanism, not globalism, will become our creed." They put themselves in the dark room, and they did not finish all kinds of stupid things that were out of place and harmed others. They moved out of the rusty "cold weapons" and used the pressure of tariffs to abuse the "national security review", which made the countries unsafe.

"Blowing out other people’s lights will burn off their beards." The trade war brought "the Americans’ prices in the entire shopping cart are rising." "This is the American consumer who is paying the bills himself." In 2018, the net income of American farmers fell by 16% year-on-year, falling to the level of the international financial crisis 10 years ago.

The United States has provoked trade wars everywhere, which has seriously damaged the world economic order and undermined "global public goods." The WTO has lowered its global trade growth forecast for 2019 from 3.7% to 2.6%, the lowest level in three years. This shows that it is precisely the United States that ignores international responsibility and once again creates a “recession trap” for the world.

The United States is moving further and further on the road to counter globalization. China has always supported the globalization with responsibility and dedication, and has delivered China to the world. China has always been a builder of world peace, a contributor to global development, and a defender of the international order. Today's opening up in China is not passively following the peers, but actively leading the trend and injecting certainty into the world of "crossroads." One step back, where is the axiom? Where is morality? Where is the human heart? History has its own public opinion.

The trend of the world is vast and prosperous. No matter what strength a country has, if it is against the trend and against the general trend, it will inevitably hit the blood. Today's global village is no longer a primitive tribe of obscurity. The days of closing the door to the sky have long gone, leaving the sea of the world economy back to an isolated small lake, and the small river is destined to have no way out. We advise those American politicians that they will fail in the face of historical trends!

4. People's Daily: Engaging in technology hegemony is hindering development and progress. Rejecting competition will fail.

As a technological power and economic power in the world, the United States should understand the laws governing the development of science and technology and understand the benefits of market competition. However, some American politicians deliberately ignore common sense and frequently interfere with normal scientific and technological cooperation and market competition. If you can't find a reason, let's take "national security." People can't help but wonder if it can threaten the "national security" of the United States if it doesn't move, then the number one technology power is too weak.

The discerning person knows at a glance that the reason why the US side suppresses Chinese enterprises on the grounds of "national security" is nothing more than to curb the momentum of China's scientific and technological development, and to maintain the international industrial division of labor in the high-tech market such as 5G technology. Monopoly gains space and time. Such a plot is exposed to the hegemonic mentality of the United States that "only allows itself to develop and not allow others to progress."

In fact, using despicable means to suppress competitors and artificially block mutually beneficial cooperation will not only boost US information technology progress, but will only force US companies to use backward but expensive alternative equipment to lag behind other countries in the construction of 5G networks. It is impossible to turn "fake prestige" into "true skill" by using a non-normal means to establish a temporary "protective umbrella" for the development of the country.

The basic feature of a market economy is competition. A fair and benign competitive environment can continuously stimulate the vitality of market players, promote orderly flow of production factors, efficient allocation of resources, deep integration of markets, and promote high-quality economic development. A United States that slams its mouth and advertises "free competition" and "market economy" cannot rationally treat competition, ignore international trade rules, and sway trade protectionism and suppress other countries' technology enterprises. These words are different and how to win the trust. The international community? !

A few decades ago, under the difficult conditions of the Western blockade, China still created "two bombs and one star." Today, the pace of China's scientific and technological innovation development will not stop because of the noise and interference of some US politicians. I would like to advise those American politicians that they want to use power to dominate the strong momentum of China's scientific and technological progress, and want to use the right to chase and block the legitimate right to develop and grow in China, which is destined to be a waste of effort! It is impossible for the United States to maintain its leading position by carving small insects and sideways.

5. People's Daily: Playing with power is doomed to helplessness, but I will fail if I am alone

There is a saying in the West: self-knowledge is the most rare knowledge. However, some politicians in the United States cannot see themselves clearly, nor can they see the world's general trend. They must follow the old path of my own respect and power politics.

Supporting me alone and arrogant is the naked hegemonic logic: the rules set by the United States are the laws of the whole world. In order to ensure the interests of the United States, other countries must make unconditional concessions. The American politicians who "have a hammer" regard normal economic exchanges as nails, and can't see that the Chinese people can live as rich as the American people.

Today, why are some politicians in the United States still immersed in the myth of the "land of heaven"? Still doing the dream of "the country of the mountains"? The root cause is that they still believe in the old concept of "power is the truth". The impression of the world still stays in the old era of "the law of the jungle", and the old-fashioned thinking of "clash of civilizations" is still held for the relationship between countries. Today, when the world is multi-polarized, economic globalization, cultural diversity, and social information is unstoppable, they still imagine that they are the savior of this world. They still have to regard the whole world as their own back garden, thinking that they can be arrogant and do whatever they want. Even the attempt to block the construction of the human destiny community with the "American priority".

Inequality in the United States stems from its wrong policies and should not blame economic globalization. Regrettably, some politicians in the United States are ill-advised, and they have made the wrong prescription for themselves, and have hardly described other countries as an obstacle to "making the United States great again." Spilling dirty water on others, such paranoia and waywardness are not only to pass on domestic contradictions, but also to blind their own eyes, miss the opportunity of self-improvement, leading to mistakes and mistakes.

As human history has developed to this day, no country is willing to be arrogant and arbitrary. Mutual respect, frank cooperation, mutual benefit and win-win situation are the ways for countries to get along. There is an idiom in China called "Strongly insulting." Any country that does not take the road of cooperation and win-win is immersed in the "zero-sum game". It does not follow the rules of fair competition and is obsessed with suppressing other countries. In spite of the trend of economic globalization, it chooses conservatism. In the end, it will only be surrounded by enemies and hit the wall everywhere. . Looking at history textbooks, there are too many examples in this regard.

6. People's Daily: "The US exception" is a harmful civilization superiority theory, and double standards will fail

For some time, some politicians in the United States have held double standards and put a lot of words in the fields of trade, debt, rules, and human rights, exposing the logic of chaos and the attitude of arrogance.

For example, on the issue of rules of the World Trade Organization, the United States is known to be the biggest "unruly person" to date. However, some US politicians have turned black and white and accused China of undermining the WTO rules. In another example, on the issue of global climate change, it is clear that the US refused to mention “climate change” in the common text, which led to the first time the Arctic Council Ministerial Conference failed to issue a joint statement for more than 20 years, but the US Secretary of State Pompeo However, it refers to the deer as a horse, saying that China and Russia may threaten the ecological damage caused by the Arctic. All these kinds of things all reveal the illusory illusion of the United States "above the rules" and the arrogant mentality of seeking for it.

The essence of the "US exception" is a theory of civil superiority, that is, the United States is different from any other country, "destined to be great" and "will lead the world." The reason why some politicians in the United States are fearless and brazenly engage in "the exception of the United States" is, in the final analysis, the hegemonic thinking that is deeply buried in the mind. They have tried their best to weave all kinds of lies and find various excuses. In fact, they are suppressing the legitimate development rights of other countries and using political means to interfere with economic activities. Pompeo lobbied around on the grounds of endangering national security. The coercion and inducement of governments to refuse to cooperate with Huawei is precisely the arbitrage of the US market rules and international trade standards.

The magic of the more brilliant, but also when it was dismantled, let alone the words and deeds of these American politicians. Their double standards of doing things have long been known to the international community and often become a laughing stock. In the global villages where the interconnections are increasingly close, countries all over the world need to enhance the awareness of rules at all times in history, and jointly cope with the risks and challenges faced by human society in cooperation. Some politicians in the United States have no right to maintain their dominant position at the expense of the legitimate interests of other countries, and it is even more impossible to "re-great" by the lack of moral recklessness. As Jeffrey Sachs, a professor of economics at Columbia University in the United States, said, when the interests of all countries are closely intertwined and the fate is closely related, the "American exception" argument is likely to turn the United States into a "rogue state in the 21st century."

7. People's Daily: Credit bankruptcy is the biggest bankruptcy, and no words will fail

In the process of Sino-US economic and trade consultations, the US side has no words and volatility. When it is said at the moment, it will be able to overthrow itself in the next second, and it will be faster than turning a book. Even the US media is full of doubts and worries: "The strategy for China has changed, and it is likely to hurt the United States itself."

Looking back at the high-level consultation process between China and the United States, people can see the so-called "trade art" of some American politicians more clearly. On May 19 last year, China and the United States reached a consensus not to fight trade wars. In just 10 days, the US side blatantly violated its commitments and waved its tariffs. On May 5 this year, the US side restarted the tariff threats, causing serious negotiations between the two sides. frustration. Some politicians in the United States disregarded the facts and even labeled China with "regression" and "abandonment" and accused the Chinese of "violating their commitments" and "reversing their anger."
