1 why is the relationship between emerging powers between China and the United States different from the past? What is new?

The first is the starting point and destination of China's "new" diplomatic strategy and policy, that is, to safeguard world peace, stability and sustainable development, and strive to create a peaceful, stable, friendly and cooperative external environment for China's own development. This is fundamentally different from any so-called "emerging power" or "rising imperialist power" in the past. China's national interests and socialist system determine that China has no intention to seek hegemony abroad, let alone compete with any big country. It is decided that China will never compete with the United States for hegemony with the standpoint and mentality of a "rising" imperialist country when dealing with its relations with the United States.

Secondly, the new-type relationship between China and the United States, the essential feature of the "new" relationship between China and the United States, is not a zero-sum relationship of "you lose and I win", but a mutually beneficial and win-win relationship. The fundamental basis of this relationship is the increasingly close interdependence between China and the United States, as well as the extensive challenges and the same interests that * * * faces in the trend of globalization, which makes China and the United States form a relationship of "one glory for all, one loss for all * * *" to some extent.

Third, the relationship between China and the United States is "new". The interests of both sides far outweigh their differences and contradictions. This is the most important objective basis for Sino-US relations, which is completely different from the previous relations of "being a big country" and "emerging big country". In the foreseeable future, China will remain a regional power. The Asia-Pacific region will be the region with the most concentrated interests and frictions between China and the United States in a long historical period in the future. Although there are many contradictions and differences between the two sides in this region, there are two fundamental interests in the Asia-Pacific region: both China and the United States need a lasting and predictable regional peace and stability, and both need the sustainable development and prosperity of the local economy; The sustainable prosperity of China and the United States increasingly depends on sustainable peace and development in the Asia-Pacific region. These two fundamental interests constitute the objective basis for China and the United States to seek common ground while reserving differences and properly manage differences.

The essence of the "new" relationship between China and America is mutual benefit. With the development of the world, both China and the United States want to use new technology and new economic situation to change Sino-US relations and achieve mutual benefit and win-win results. Only by helping each other in the same boat and seeking common development can China and the United States maximize their respective interests in the "new" Sino-US relations and international environment.
