CPPCC Calls for Less Containment in Sino-US Ties

4

On Tuesday during a press conference, Zhao Qizheng, a spokesman for the 11th National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC), stated that there should be more cooperation and less containment concerning Sino-US relations. He stated that the two countries had already established good ties between them, but at the beginning of 2010, Barack Obama "chilled" the ties among the two countries. These two events were Obama's arms sales plan involving Taiwan, and his meeting with the Dalai Lama. Zhao Qizheng said that these events "seriously disturbed" and "seriously violated" Sino-US realtions. Zhao also stated this relationship is like a game of tennis, and now the ball is in America's court. He added to his statement that China held no responsibility concerning the recent conflicts that have occured. The CPPCC National Committee will hold another conference on Wednesday, and will have over 2,000 political advisors proposing different solutions to state affairs.

  1. America and China's relations seem to be a little strained, however China holds most of the power in this relationship. China likes to push off blame on the other party, whether it be the Dalai Lama or America and this cannot bode well for their world relations.
