Beijing Cut the Biden
and Trump Administrations, but Could Not Cut Off the Continuation of US Policy
Toward China (excerpt)
January 21, 2021 10:24
-- Report by Yu Zhou,
Voice of America
On January 20, Joe Biden
took over after Trump and was sworn to become the 46th President of the United
States. At the same time, the Chinese
Ministry of Foreign Affairs promptly announced sanctions against 28 Trump
administration officials, including former Secretary of State Pompeo,
prohibiting them and their families from entering China and doing business with
China. Some analysts say that Beijing’s
move is intended to cut the former US government from the new government,
expecting the Biden administration to allow the Chinese government to recover
from the plight of US-China relations.
However, the current US stance on China is not the imagination result of
President Trump and some of his staff.
Hua Chunying, the
spokesperson of the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs, said the day before:
“I hope that the new US government will meet China halfway and push China-US
relations back to the right track as soon as possible.” Hua Chunying also criticized Pompeo and other
former officials for "lying, deceiving, spreading hatred and
confrontation", etc.
Before leaving office,
on Twitter, Secretary of State Pompeo summed up the measures taken by the Trump
administration in response to the Chinese Communist threat, including closing
the Chinese Consulate General in Houston, sanctioning Chinese Communist
officials who violated human rights in Hong Kong and Xinjiang, lifting the
self-restraints regarding US-Taiwan officials’ exchanges, treating Chinese
official media and Confucius Institutes in the United States as foreign
missions, denying recognition of China’s claims to most of the rights in the
South China Sea, imposing tariffs on Chinese goods, and restricting the access
by Huawei and other companies associated with the Chinese military to American
technology and capital, etc.
General H.R. McMaster, a
former national security adviser to the Trump administration, recently wrote an
article in The Washington Post with the headline "Biden would do the world
a favor by keeping Trump’s China policy."
The article said,
"Elements of Trump’s policies toward China are eminently worth
preserving."
McMaster pointed out in
the article that many people took little notice during a week when the House of
Representatives voted for impeachment that the Trump administration released a
partially declassified document entitled “U.S. Strategic Framework for the
Indo-Pacific.”
"That document, and
the collaborative work across the U.S. government during the year that preceded
it, effected the most significant shift in U.S. foreign
policy since the end of the Cold War.” McMaster said.
The "The
Diplomat" magazine in the US stated that this document was released in
February 2018 and was classified as confidential at the time and could not be
disclosed to foreigners.
McMaster said that the
(China policy) shift was long overdue, because U.S. policy between the end of
the Cold War and 2017 was based on a flawed assumption: that China, having been
welcomed into the international order, would play by the rules, and, as it
prospered, would liberalize its economy and, ultimately, its form of
governance. "Instead, the Chinese
Communist Party pursued an increasingly aggressive agenda, exploiting the
United States’ policy of cooperation and engagement.”
Wei Jingsheng, chairman
of the "Overseas Chinese Democracy Coalition" and the "Wei
Jingsheng Foundation", pointed out in an article to Radio Free Asia that
with the current political atmosphere in the United States, the US Congress and
the people will not let the Biden Administration retreat to the appeasement
policy of the past.
Wei Jingsheng said:
"The dictatorial system in China has enabled it to be successful by
controlling a few people at the top. But
democratic countries are different. If
you can't control the American people, you can't control the Congress; if you
can't control the Congress, it still will not work even if you controlled the
White House."
Dr. Wu Qiang, a
political observer in Beijing, told VOA: “Trump is an elusive leader; Biden is
a more predictable politician and does not have a strong personal touch, so
that means that after he takes office, he will represent the common will of the
two parties in the U.S. Congress."
Wei Jingsheng said that
in the US system the Congress makes policy and the executive branch executes
it. The majority of the two political
parties will not agree to retreat to the appeasement policy.
Wei Jingsheng pointed
out: "And as most observers around the world have said, the Biden
administration can only continue what the Trump administration has begun, and
unite with allies besides Europe so its effect will even exceed what the Trump
administration did."
Wei also pointed out: " Jiang Zemin and his successes used deception and
bribery to secure the American leadership…
But that was when the American people were deceived by these
elites. Now after the four years of
Trump’s administration, the United States and the world have woken up. Will Jiang Zemin's trick still work?"
McMaster, a former
national security adviser to the Trump administration, pointed out that the
Biden administration should be confident in the free world’s ability to compete
effectively with the CCP and its authoritarian, mercantilist model.
He pointed out: "In
the past year, the United States has been sorely tested by pandemic, recession,
social division and political strife, but our republic has proved
resilient. It is up to the task of
working with partners to defend the free world from Chinese Communist Party
aggression."

北京切割拜特两朝，却无法割断美国对华政策的延续
（节选）
2021年1月21日 10:24
-- 美国之音雨舟报道
1月20日，拜登接任特朗普，宣誓成为美国第46任总统。与此同时，中国外交部迅速宣布，制裁包括前国务卿蓬佩奥在内的28名特朗普政府官员，禁止他们和家属入境中国以及与中国生意往来。有分析称，北京此举意在切割美国前政府和新政府，期待拜登政府让中国政府得以从美中关系的困境中复苏；不过，美国目前的对华立场并非特朗普和部分幕僚“臆想”的结果。
中国外交部发言人华春莹前一天曾表示，“希望美国新一届政府与中方相向而行，推动中美关系尽快回到正确发展轨道。”华春莹并抨击蓬佩奥等前朝官员“撒谎、欺骗、散布仇恨和对抗”，等等。
国务卿蓬佩奥离任前在推特上总结了特朗普政府为应对中共威胁所采取的措施，包括关闭中国驻休斯顿总领事馆，制裁侵犯香港和新疆人权的中共官员，解除美台官员交往的自我限制，将在美中国官媒和孔子学院认定为外国使团，不承认中国对南中国海的大多数权利声索，对中国商品加征关税，限制华为等与中国军方有关联的企业获得美国技术和资本，等等。
曾任特朗普政府国安顾问的麦克马斯特将军(H.R. McMaster)日前撰文《华盛顿邮报》，标题为“拜登保留特朗普的对华政策，功在全球”。
文章说，“特朗普对华政策的很多要素非常值得保留。”
麦克马斯特在文中指出，许多人没有注意到，美国众议院投票弹劾总统的那个星期，特朗普政府公开了一份部分解密的文件--“美国印太战略框架”。
“这份文件，以及整个美国政府头一年的通力协作，引发了冷战结束以来美国外交政策的最大变化，”麦克马斯特说。
美国《外交家》杂志称，这份文件2018年2月出台，当时被定为机密，不能向外国人公开。
麦克马斯特称，这种(对华政策的)转变早就应该发生了，因为美国在冷战结束至2017年之间的政策是基于一个错误的假设：中国已经受到国际秩序的欢迎，它将遵守规则，在繁荣的伴随下实现经济的自由化，并将最终实现治理的自由化，“不过，中国共产党利用美国的配合与协作政策，追求着一个日益加剧的侵略议程。”
“中国民主运动海外联席会议”以及“魏京生基金会”主席魏京生在给“自由亚洲电台”的撰文中指出，以美国现在的政治气氛，美国国会和人民不会允许拜登政府重回过去的对华绥靖政策。
魏京生说：“在中国这个独裁专制体制下，搞定了最高层几个人就成功了，可是民主国家不同，你不能搞定美国人民就不能搞定国会；不能搞定国会，你搞定了白宫也没多大作用。”
位于北京的政治观察人士吴强博士告诉美国之音：“特朗普是个捉摸不定的领导人；而拜登则是一个更加可以预测的政客，而且没有很强的个人色彩，所以他上任以后意味着，他将代表美国国会两党的共同意志。”
魏京生说，美国的体制是国会制定政策，行政当局执行，而两党议员的大多数不会同意退回过去的对华政策。
魏京生指出：“正如全世界大多数观察家们所说，拜登政府只能继续特朗普没有做完的事情，并且联合欧洲以外的盟国，效果会超过特朗普。”
魏京生指出：“江泽民和他的继承者们用收买的方法，企图搞定美国……但那是在美国人民被欺骗的情况下。现在经过特朗普执政的四年，美国和全世界已经醒过来了。江泽民那一套还管用吗？”
特朗普政府前国安顾问麦克马斯特指出，拜登政府应该对自由世界与中共及其独裁和重商主义模式进行有效竞争的能力充满信心。
他指出：“在过去一年中，美国经受了新冠大流行，经济衰退，社会分裂和政治冲突的严峻考验，但事实证明，我们的共和国具有韧性。与合作伙伴共同捍卫自由世界免遭中国共产党的侵略是我们的任务。”
