French President Emmanuel Macron
Just concluded a state visit to China
On the plane back to France
He spoke clearly to the media
Europe should avoid the Taiwan issue
Drawn into the conflict between the United States and China
Europe needs strategic independence
It should not be an American follower
Macron also stressed that
France is poised to dominate Europe
The third superpower
Macron tweets frequently during his visit to China
Continues to generate heated debate
Late on April 7th
Macron tweeted in Chinese, French and English
Triple language
He praised the friendship between France and China
He said we had a lot to do together
Long live France-China friendship
In the early hours of April 8th
Macron wrote in both Chinese and French
Expressed gratitude to Guangzhou
And Macron
At the end of access
On the Airbus A330 back to France
Accepted the American political news network Le Monde
And three media outlets in the Echo
He said Europe must reduce its dependence on the United States
And avoid getting drawn into a confrontation with China over Taiwan
And emphasizes the theory of European strategic autonomy
France may take the lead in implementing the theory
Europe thus became the third superpower
He said the problem for the Europeans is
Accelerating the crisis over Taiwan
Is it good for us
It doesn't get any worse
Europeans think they are
Should become a follower on this issue
Adjust to the pace of the US and the reaction of China
This sends a clear signal
Europe cannot become rich as America
Participating in the interview, Politico News analysis said
Macron clearly agrees with China
Europe should not interfere with the views of Taiwan issues
When it comes to the Taiwan question
On the one hand the French are worried
When the tide of European security was still rolling
The Asian crisis arose again
And at the same time
The French are also stressing that they are making policy choices
In the process of
For NATO
Focus more on the present
Instead of being distracted by America
Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Wang Wenbin
No 10 responded to Mr Macron's claims
We hope that all parties can see clearly the nature of the Taiwan question
The biggest threat to peace across the Taiwan Straits
It is a separatist activity for Taiwan independence
The United States and the United States connived and supported it
The One-China principle is the universal consensus of the international community
Basic norms governing international relations
The biggest threat to peace across the Taiwan Straits
It is an act of Taiwan independence and secession
And outside powers coddled and supported it
We hope
The international community is fully aware of the nature of the Taiwan question
We will firmly abide by the One-China principle
We firmly oppose all forms of separatist activities for Taiwan independence
Macron also stressed in the interview
It must not rely on the outside rights of the dollar
He mentioned Russia, Iran and other countries
Has been hit by U.S. sanctions in recent years
These sanctions
On the grounds that these countries are not allowed to join the dollar
The dominant global financial system
Macron warning
The extra-legal rights of the dollar
Could force European companies
Give up business in third countries
Or risk violating sanctions
Mr Macron also said
Europe in arms and energy
Increased dependence on the United States
Now you have to focus
To promote the development of the European defense industry
Institute of International Relations and Strategic Studies
Co-researcher Professor at the Catholic University of Paris
"Said Mr Emmanuel Linco
This is a welcome move
He reflected the boldness and wisdom of the situation
France does not want to separate itself economically from China
From a strategic perspective
France doesn't want to do what the United States wants
Fall into the logic of confrontation with China
Since the end of last year, actually
European leaders are meeting with their Chinese counterparts one after another
This is in stark contrast to the absence of American visitors
Observation refers to a number of factors indicating
The EU and the US are not only engaged with China
Different aspirations, different ways
At the same time, it plays on China
Promoting the role of facilitator of peace talks between Russia and Ukraine
There is also a very different view from the United States
This means that
The European Union and the United States on related issues
Start getting into a way where you walk your sunny path
I walk my plank bridge split state
It is worth pointing out that during the meeting between the heads of state of China and France on 6th
Macron expressed France's commitment to independent diplomacy
Advocate European strategic independence
We oppose the practice of antagonism and division
We oppose confrontation between camps
France does not choose teams but stands for unity and cooperation
Major country relations remain stable
No.7
During the informal meeting between the Chinese and French heads of state in Guangzhou
Mr Macron said
France appreciates China's consistent support for France and Europe
Uphold independence, solidarity and unity
China is willing to respect each other
Each other's sovereignty and territorial integrity
Core interests
The French President's visit to China came into being
From a western perspective
reflective
First, how do you view China and how do you view China's development
How do you evaluate the partnership between the United States and Europe
Is America First gone
Or what?
America still has an implicit America First
Come to an ally
A further twist on foreign policy
So now what?
Europe is in the process of judging, so to speak
Should say
The United States is in a conflict-free context
Exert influence on Europe
This is a general situation
To a certain extent, it suppressed Europe including France
In terms of foreign policy
The opportunity to express more autonomy
On a related topic, we're joined by our special commentator Liu Heping
Hello, Mr. Liu.
Mr Macron said
The EU must resist the pressure to become an American follower
And strive to become
What do you think of World 3
When I visited Russia earlier to meet with Vladimir Putin
Once said
Current world order
We are undergoing changes unseen in a century
And invited Russia to join them in pushing for change
I think the core element of this change is
Oppose American single - machine cross - hegemony
Build one that is fairer
A just multilevel world order
China, Russia, EU and other countries and regions
Will become the first level of the multilevel world order
Macron's statement
It fully complies with China's judgment and appeal
And there are a lot of them
Even more than the outside world had expected
Including opposition
The United States has linked ideological issues to economic issues
Oppose the US weaponisation of the dollar
Oppose the United States to promote the Taiwan crisis and so on
All of which means
In promoting a change in the world order unseen in a century
After inviting Russia
The Chinese succeeded in persuading the French
Brought him into the camp of change
In particular, it's worth noting
China, France and Russia are both permanent members of the UN Security Council
live
In the future, when the Security Council is playing this game
China, France and Russia have already formed a 3-2 situation against Britain and America
So do you think
What is the reason?
Let France join the push for greater justice
In the ranks of a reasonable international order
I think this is the first thing to benefit from
China's relationship with France
Long-term efforts to manage and invest
Especially during Macron's trip to China
China has not only given a super-high field
And signed a series of large Jinmao orders with France
It was a triumph for Macron
Of course, this is only one factor
There's another factor here
Since the reign of Charles de Gaulaud
What France pursues in the field of diplomacy is the so-called
Balanced strategy of
It's not just against Europe becoming rich in America
Even on many major international issues
It's against the United States
Has become an international
An important counterweight to the United States
This is Macron
In response to American hegemony
One important factor is that
After the crisis in Ukraine
The EU is more tightly tied to the US
This is not only a departure from France's basic national policy
And it has created a deep sense of crisis in France
So
China and France will hit it off on this issue
I think that's when the Chinese hosted Macron
The purpose of arranging people according to Chinese ancient music flowing water
That's telling Macron
In counteracting American hegemony and constructing many words
In the world order
We are a bosom friend
That China and France jointly promote the world order of many words
Will it be smooth sailing in the end
I think over the years
China is opposing US hegemony
Strategies and tactics to promote a multi-order world
In fact, it is consistent
That's the first one
Strengthen cooperation with Russia
And support for EU strategic independence
To counter American hegemony through the expansion of these two levels
Especially against the US
Attempts to tie the EU together to contain China's attempts
Second, within the European Union
On the issue of opposing American hegemony
Not on the same page
China has joined forces with France, Germany and Italy
Like the old powers of Europe
To influence the EU's position on dialogue
Certainly in the process
China still faces several difficulties
Or several factors of uncertainty
In fact, it was blocked by countries like Maino
If Maino
The disagreement with France and Germany over the issue was further highlighted
Then the whole western world would probably split in two
That is, Main Osinga as a matrix cloud
Franco-german means another array of clouds
The second is the different tone within the EU
Including the European Union
Different tones from France, Germany and other countries
After Macron's joint visit to China with von der Leyen
The American secretary of state is not working
deliberately
Highly praised von der Leian's attitude and policy towards China
And gradually criticized Macron
That suggests a growing divergence
It also includes traditional EU powers such as France and Germany
A different tone from the central and Eastern European countries led by Poland
These problems will not be solved
Would lead to a split in the European Union
