What are the three basic areas of Sino-US relations?

Sino-US relations can basically be summarized into three basic areas: political security, economy, trade, science and technology and ideology.

First of all, judging from the international strategic pattern, after the founding of New China, due to the special geographical environment and national strength, the two superpowers, the United States and the Soviet Union, were tied and interdependent in the struggle for global hegemony.

After the end of the Cold War, with the gradual decline of American political influence, the economic aggregate of its traditional allies, Britain, France and Germany, is much lower than that of Russia, so the United States must find more opponents and partners to consolidate its strength.

In order to crack down on the proletarian movement and strengthen the anti-terrorism combat capability, the United States needs a large and well-trained army; At the same time, in order to cope with the growing security threats in the Asia-Pacific region, the United States is also eager to establish close ties with Southeast Asian countries and enter the Indian Ocean and the Pacific Ocean through these countries.

In view of the strategic intention of the United States, it is not difficult to understand why the United States has frequently sent aircraft carriers to the western Pacific in recent years. However, the United States not only regards China as a potential enemy or imaginary enemy, but also regards China as an important partner and even a competitor. Facts have proved that, whether before or after "9. 1 1", the United States never gave up its efforts to win over China.

Now, the Obama administration is actively pursuing the strategy of "Asian rebalancing", trying to use the challenges brought by the rise of China to put pressure on China and the hot issues around China to curb the development momentum of China.

However, although the countries concerned ostensibly claim to be willing to cooperate with China, they deliberately set up obstacles in an attempt to stop the rapid development of China. Obviously, the United States has realized that simply relying on grass power to maintain the status quo is not in the fundamental interests of the United States, and will also harm the interests of the vast number of Asia-Pacific countries, including China.
