PEOPLE'S DAILY DEFENDS CHINA'S POLICIES SAYING CHINA'S GROWTH HAS TRIGGERED US REACTIONS

A 2000-character article published in the People's Daily on August 10, 2018 acknowledged that "there are also some plausible views circulating on the Internet. One is to blame China on the responsibility, saying that "China is strategically 'overconfident and high-profile" and has attracted the American combination of boxing. One is to criticize China should not counterattack, saying that it is "to compromise early and trade war." Will not intensify." The implication is that as long as China is soft, the United States will "high up its hands," and the "trade war" between China and the United States will not be played". It cited US actions against Russia and said "No matter what China does, in the eyes of the United States, China’s development today has "endangered the United States first." As the world's second largest economy, China's total economic output has exceeded 60% of the United States. It is the sum of GDP of Japan, Germany, and the United Kingdom. ........ .  Especially since the party’s 18th National Congress, China’s development achievements have entered a blowout period, with a quarter of the world’s industrial capacity, and the level of innovation and technology is rapidly catching up with the United States. ... . Since the Opium War, after more than 100 years of hard work, China has re-entered the center of the world stage. This is the basic fact that we must observe the trade friction between China and the United States. Such a large volume, such a heavy weight, can not be hidden by "low-key", just as an elephant cannot be hidden behind a small tree". the article added that China "has become an "unprecedented opponent" of the United States". It said for its "opponents", the United States inevitably adopts two means: to motivate itself or "to curb the opponent's transcendence at all levels". It said "The United States has always adopted a policy of contact + containment against China and behind its "great anxiety" is the "absolute advantage" that the United States must ensure that it will never be surpassed. Saying there is enough space for both countries, the People's Daily article again emphasised that "China does not intend to change the United States, nor does it want to replace the United States; the United States cannot control China, and it is even more unlikely to stop China's development". It concluded by saying "We are fully aware that the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation cannot be achieved easily and by drums and drums".
