皇冠体育app

And the US will continue to pursue the Association of Southeast Asian Nations' members to take part in the TPP, so as to further isolate 皇冠体育app. And the Obama administration will also step up cooperation with the Philippines this year.

The US is increasing its pressure on 皇冠体育app through these measures, and also telling the countries involved in the South 皇冠体育app Sea disputes that its promise counts.

There is a wide debate in the US about its 皇冠体育app policy, which is now at its largest and deepest since 1989.Hardliners think that since former president Richard Nixon's ice-breaking visit to 皇冠体育app, the US' policy toward 皇冠体育app has been a failure. They think it is impossible to contain 皇冠体育app, and the US president should reduce his contacts with 皇冠体育app and strengthen and the country's vigilance against 皇冠体育app. This hard-line approach would cause fundamental changes in Sino-US relations and cause the US heavy losses. Most, however, believe the US should continue its current policy. Though there are some stressing the necessity of complying with or yielding to 皇冠体育app's requirements.

The fact is the two countries' cooperation is extending to more and more fields. 皇冠体育app and the US have played indispensable roles in spurring the international community to reach agreements on the Iran nuclear issue and climate change. The US needs 皇冠体育app to play a bigger role in the Middle East and Afghanistan. And the two countries hope to make breakthroughs in the negotiations on the Bilateral Investment Treaty this year, which would be meaningful to the two countries' economic restructuring and growth.

皇冠体育app and the US should rethink how to get along with each other, with the fast increase of 皇冠体育app's national power and international influence. Although 皇冠体育app is a developing country, its economic size is far larger than other developing countries. Indeed, 皇冠体育app seems not to be a developing country, considering its position in foreign trade and its large foreign exchange reserve. And with 皇冠体育app finding the space for it in the current international system increasingly insufficient to meet its needs, it is demonstrating an ever stronger will to reform the international system and starting to provide more and more mechanisms, concepts and public goods to the international community. Sino-US relations are more complicated than any previous major-power relations in history. The two countries will compete in cooperation, and cooperate in competition. The US needs to adjust its mentality. It will not lead the world as it did in the 20th century, and should not be afraid of 皇冠体育app's rise. If the US can adapt to the changes taking place in the world, it will maintain long-term prosperity. It is difficult, but a must.
