As Washington has now descended into a "morbid and bottomless" struggle to contain a rising China, Chinese observers noted that the targeted sanctions China announced signals Beijing is fully prepared for the further floundering of China-US ties; and although China hopes for the best that bilateral ties will evolve, China is still preparing for the worst to come.

Wang Wen: China instills certainty into a chaotic world
Chinese State Councilor and Foreign Minister Wang Yi delivered a speech to the China-US Think Tanks Media Forum on Thursday. As one of the organizers of the event, I attended the forum and was impressed by the huge amount of information he made in his remarks. Regrettably, US media outlets failed to adequately report about this most systematic explanation of China's US policy by Chinese policymakers since the deterioration of Beijing-Washington relations. I would therefore like to share my understanding of the speech to the English-speaking world through this column.

China-US pandemic assistance persists despite rational voices receding
Key advocates are calling for greater partnering between China and the US in the fight against coronavirus even as rational voices are being marginalized and undervalued especially during the COVID-19 outbreak in the US, where some politicians have politicized the virus by tossing wild accusations against China. While many people in the US and China have forged close relationships, they constantly face challenges from US political hawks whose China-bashing rhetoric intimidates progressives and stunts local cooperation and support.

Wang Yiwei: Independent view of Huawei crucial for European interests
The US, under the guise of national security concerns, has been relentlessly cracking down on Huawei and has placed enormous pressure on its European allies to stay away from the leading 5G tech firm. It is attempting to buy time to catch up in the 5G race, at the cost of its allies' interests. However, a balanced strategy and cooperation are now crucial for the EU to recover from the pandemic and gain an advantage in the digital revolution era.

India keeps itself away from East Asian value chain as it refuses to join RCEP
India is distancing itself from the value chain of the East Asian Economy, and it always wants to pay in little but want too much out of joining international organizations such as the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP). The comment came after The Print said India has decided it won't join any trade deal that has China as a member, citing Indian official sources. The border standoff and Indian government's ban on 59 apps developed by Chinese companies have added tensions to the China-India relationship.

Liu Zhiqin: Has Europe been naive about its foreign policy toward China for 40 years?
Certain European politicians and scholars have been repeatedly using the word "naive" to describe Europe's foreign policies toward China, defining China as a "systemic rival" and claiming that the EU's naive era is over. Such a notion also reveals a trace of helplessness, self-pity and even frustration over its ignorance, with the words between the lines reading Europe's judgment on China has been wrong.

The Galwan Valley border clash was an unfortunate incident. Liu Zongyi, secretary-general of the South Asia and China Center of the Shanghai Institutes for International Studies, argues that a repeat is inevitable if Delhi cannot shake off the specter of Nehru, originator of the “offensive defense” border policy, and reconsider its relations with Beijing.

Lin Minwang: India lifting arms rules at border endangers its own security
India has reportedly reset the rules of engagement with Chinese troops along the China-India border. The Indian Army gave their troops "complete freedom of action" to handle situations. More specifically, they are permitted to do this with "any aggression by China" at the tactical level. Field commanders will also be allowed to use firearms in "extraordinary" circumstances on the Line of Actual Control, according to Indian media reports.

Long Xingchun: Time to cool down Indian nationalism
Commander-level talks between Chinese and Indian border troops were held on Monday. It was the first such meeting following the Galwan Valley deadly brawl on June 15.

By then, both sides agreed to avoid escalating their disputes, to work together to uphold peace and tranquility along the border, and to create a favorable atmosphere for the sound and stable development of bilateral relations.

EU advised to refrain from 'politically correct' values for China ties
The Europe and China attached greater importance to pragmatic cooperation, despite some Western media described that the EU-China summit on Monday concluded with more differences than consensus. Chinese observers on EU affairs pointed out that EU defending their so-called values by bringing up a number of issues such as Hong Kong, Xinjiang and human rights could be interpreted as building a "spiritual fortress" in the face of China's growing influence.

Djoomart Otorbaev: What can the EU do to mitigate the risk of China-U.S. conflicts?
The battles between Beijing and Washington have so far emerged on almost everything – technology, trade, investment, supply chains, journalists, responses to demonstrations, COVID-19, etc. Who, if any, can cool down this situation? Perhaps, other influential "global players" can play a role? But who are those "global players"? Russia now will not be able to mediate since it is openly not on the same side with the U.S. Thus, I would like to look into relationships within the U.S.-EU-China triangle.
