Well, you can't blame this problem on somebody else. 

The U.S itself does not represent international public opinion.

And neither does the western world

Whether judged by population scale, or the trend of the world

The western world does not represent the global public opinion.

So we hope that when talking about.

Universal values or international public opinion on the part of the United States.

We hope the U.S side will think about whether it feels reassured.

Saying those things.

Because the U.S does not represent the world. it only represents the government of the United States.

I don't think the overwhelming majority of countries in the world would recognized.

that the universal values advocated by the United States.

Or that the opinion of the U.S could represent international public opinion.

And those countries would not recognize that. the rules made by a small number of people.

would serve as the basis for the international order.

Well, I think we thought too well of the United States, we thought that the U.S side will follow the necessary diplomatic protocols.

So for China, it was necessary that we make our position clear.

In front of the Chinese side, the United States does not have the qualification to say that it wants to speak to China from a position of stregth.

Now the U.S side was not even qualified to say such things. even twenty years or thirty years back.

Because this is not the way to deal with the Chinese people.

If the United States wants to deal properly with the Chinese side.

Then let's follow the necessary protocols and do things the right way.

Cooperation benefits both sides.

In particular, this is the expectation of the people of the world.

but so are the Chinese people.

So, had the Chinese people not suffered enough in the past.

From the foreign countries.

Time has not been short since China started being encircled by the foreign countries.

Well, as long as China's system is right.

With the wisdom of the Chinese people, there is no way to stangle China.

History will show that one can only cause damages to himself.

If he wants to strangle or suppress the Chinese people.

You mentioned that during your engagement and the visit.

That Mr. Secretary had jus recently.

The two countries you visited mentioned coercion from China.

We don't know if this is a direct complaint.

Coming from those countries that you visited.

Or is it just the United States' own view.

Well, I think, for those relationships.

For instance, China's relationship with the United States.

With Japan and with Australia. I don't think we should lump them all just easily together.

Because for all of those relationships, they each have their own set of issues.

And different positions are involved, so to accuse China of coercion. even before sharing the relevant views with China.

Is this the right attitude, of course not. If the United States would indiscriminately protect and speak up for those countries just because they are your allies or partners.

Even for the wrong things that they have done. then it would be very difficult for international relations to develop properly.

And so we don't think one should be so hasty. as to accuse some other country of coercion.

Who is coercing whom, I think history and the international community will come to their own conclusions. Bu if the United States is interested in having those discussions with China.

And then we are ready to have such discussions with the US side.

But based on mutual respect.

So that we can increase our mutual understanding on those issues.
