British media: Hu, Austria to visit with the new situation of China's diplomacy!

　 Comment on the British Broadcasting Corp., entitled "Hu, the Austrian foreign state visit to China," Qi of the French Purcell - Senior Lecturer, Peng Zhang Duo Wazi University of London. Article excerpts are as follows:

The second decade of the twenty-first century international politics from the end of the year two heads of state overseas visits were conducted and an upcoming G20 summit started. Here only from Hu, the Austrian foreign visit revealed the information to analyze the situation facing China's diplomacy.

Good trade show in France and a large single

Hu's visit to France, ostensibly to return the old well from both sides, the Chinese proud, France Dishou. However, a number of indications that China is not without deliberate move to please the French. First, the direction of the French side from deliberately emphasized the need to build a "equal" Sino-French strategic partnership, it is clear that deliberately even deeper. This "equality" the word of a relative decline of national power, with a glorious history of great powers of France and its ambitious hopes in the international arena is still a difference of President Nicolas Sarkozy is concerned, will probably be extremely pleasant to the ear of the ear.

Secondly, anyone know the Chinese side has always been a huge contract, the priority of political considerations. The Chinese side to give the French than the amount estimated by some observers of economic and trade contracts, not only a huge amount in recent years, rare, and indeed, unusual in the past few tantalize the agreement of a large single.

It should be noted that, in the 102, Airbus sold to the Chinese side, there are a considerable number of agreements that have been set in the past. As for Areva's nuclear program and the agreement signed in 2007 What is the relationship remains to be verified. But no matter how, the Chinese side so forth, on the one hand is the French side to balance the huge Sino-French trade deficit, resulting from the weakened French side on China's exchange rate adjustment requirements; the other hand, apparently have to strengthen the hold-up France relationship was intended.

The diplomatic situation deteriorate

6, Obama left for India, Indonesia, Korea, Japan, began his office the longest time, China's foreign affairs around the visit. Reach the first stop in India, will also be breaking in a country where access to the longest stay and sign a huge arms trade contracts. Although the United States against China's dual strategy of cooperation and containment a long time, still today, and the momentum to curb terrorism by 911, Taiwan, the situation changes and the war in Iraq has been delayed and weakened, but the recent past in China's aggressive, the United States to accelerate the adjustment of the Asia-Pacific policy.

It is clear that hard-line U.S. policy toward China began to rise. Obama's trip to the ring, apparently with this. On the one hand is to strengthen relations between the Allies, so that construction of a new strategic partnership on the one hand, aimed at strengthening the role of U.S. leadership in Asia, and the intention to contain China's expansion is self-evident.

Construction of a new diplomatic pattern

The full range of China's diplomacy is facing new challenges. Can be expected, although still the top priority by the United States, but for some time more to developing countries, China's overtures, and deliberately to relations with Europe to ensure that its technology and market requirements, and in the international balance of Asia-Pacific region from the United States and some of the pressure. France, this strategy is clearly a key part of President Hu Jintao is out of high natural order.

However, the adjustment of these strategies obviously can not respond to a fundamental paradigm of China's diplomacy is facing the need for adjustment. The article said that economic growth and influence of the expansion does not necessarily guarantee a stable and sustainable pattern of domestic and foreign.

The article says that Deng Xiaoping, the late seventies set the strategy of opening to the West, to conform to the mainstream of civilization, in line with the historical conditions have it both ways, life continued. Today, if in order to engage in the domestic maintenance of stability of thinking to do, with a sprinkle of silver by the upstart mentality to operate the new century, China's diplomacy, is not supposed to open a new Bureau.
