摘要
The new era of socialism with Chinese characteristics sees China moving closer to the center stage and making greater contributions to mankind.However,China is now facing some challenges,including how to cope with the“Thucydides Trap,”“Kindleberger Trap,”and the Cold War Trap.Many scholars suggest that pessimistic trends are on the rise in the relations between China and other major countries.To prevent the situation from further deteriorating,we should take efforts to strengthen mutual understanding and minimize misperceptions on both sides.As important neighbors,China and India have enormous common interests and similar responsibility in enhancing global governance,but they are facing complex challenges and barriers arising both in bilateral relations and from their respective relations with third parties.In this circumstance,China and India should take steps to maintain a friendly and cooperative relationship.In the new era,the innovation of major-country diplomacy with Chinese characteristics has ushered in new historic opportunities for the expansion of China-India friendly cooperative relations.
As China moves closer to the center stage and makes greater contributions to mankind, it will encounter mounting challenges amid rising pessimistic attitudes of the West. China and India, as two countries with geographic and cultural affinity and enormous common interests, need to carefully manage the third party factor for the sound development of bilateral relations.
