美英澳三国新防务合作探析

On September 15,2021,the United States,Britain and Australia released a joint summit statement announcing the establishment of an upgraded Trilateral Security Partnership and plans to cooperate in a number of areas related to defense security,including US-UK support for Australia’s acquisition of nuclear-powered submarines.By taking advantage of the loopholes in the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons,the cooperation may lead to the proliferation of nuclear materials and technologies and could even encourage the further proliferation of nuclearpowered submarines.The cooperation shows that the United States holds multiple standards on non-proliferation issues,and that its geopolitical security considerations outweigh nuclear proliferation concerns.This US-UK-Australia cooperation suggests a shift in US strategic gravity,and it is also an important attempt of the Biden administration to reconstruct the alliance system.From“returning to the Asia-Pacific”to“rebalancing to the Asia-Pacifc”and to the so-called“Indo-Pacifc Strategy,”the United States has gradually completed its shift in strategic gravity and adjusted its military strategy,thus strengthening its defense cooperation with Australia.Although the nuclear submarine cooperation between the United States,Britain and Australia is still full of uncertainty,there is no doubt that it will affect the strategic situation in the Asia-Pacific region in many respects.The prospect for non-proliferation is alarming,and regional politics are beginning to show the trend of block confrontation.

Ethnic Issues of China's Neighboring Countries and Their Impact on National Security

In the international community,the internal ethnic issues of one country can easily spread out of its borders through the impact of internal and external factors to affect the national security of other countries,known as the spillover effect.Presently,the ethnic issues of China's neighboring countries that have real consequences on the country's national security break down mainly into four types:the internal ethnic conflict,the transnational ethnic issue,the issues related with immigrants and the collaboration of the Three Forces.The risk of spillover can be summed up according to the intensity of its effect in five categories:infiltration,springboard,spillover,immigration and harassment.As diverse ethnic issues of the neighboring countries have different effects on China's national security,the Chinese government must grasp the core element of each issue to formulate specific policies.

中美全球治理战略比较

With the profound changes taking place in the international power structure and the accelerated changes occurring in the world that have not been seen in a century,the discord between China and the United States(US)in the realm of global governance is becoming increasingly prominent.Moreover,the raging COVID-19 pandemic has aggravated the divergences between the two countries in terms of global governance strategy.Since the end of World War II,although the diplomatic strategies of the US and their implementation have varied from administration to administration,such strategies have generally been defined by the US desire for hegemony in global governance.China’s engagement in global governance,by contrast,has undergone twists and turns,and its strategies and policies have kept pace with the times,which has gradually led to a global governance strategy that highlights extensive consultation,joint contribution,and shared benefits.The divergences between China and the US in terms of global governance strategy are embodied in governance values,areas,and approaches,relations among governance entities,and balance between national and global governance,which have resulted mainly from the two countries’different cultural backgrounds,historical traditions,realistic goals,and national strength.In the context of intensifying competition among major countries today,these strategic divergences between China and the US have exerted a profound impact on global governance cooperation and the reform of the global governance system,and exacerbated the fragmentation of global governance and the competition over leadership.Therefore,a comparison of the global governance strategies pursued by China and the US will help enhance mutual understanding,avoid confrontation and conflict,properly manage disagreements,and promote a healthy and stable development of bilateral relations between China and the US.

Adhering to the Path of Peaceful Development

To continue following the path of peaceful development requires a wary eye on the domestic and international situation.
