The US is pursuing policies that risk creating a protracted conflict with
Beijing, China’s foreign minister has said. There is growing friction
between the two nations over the Covid-19 pandemic and the situation in Hong
Kong.
“It has come to our attention that some political forces in the US are
taking China-US relations hostage and pushing our two countries to the brink
of a new Cold War,” Wang Yi told reporters on Sunday.
Washington has turned up its rhetoric and threats toward Beijing as the two
countries continue to lock horns on a range of economic, political and
security issues.
US lawmakers have vowed to introduce legislation that would impose sanctions
on Chinese officials for “violating Hong Kong’s independence.” It came
in response to Beijing’s new security law for the semi-autonomous region,
which, critics said, strips people of their freedom. China, however,
maintains that it is aimed at strengthening the bond between Hong Kong and
the mainland. It has vowed to retaliate with sanctions of its own.
The Trump administration has also pressed China on its alleged role in the
Covid-19 pandemic, claiming that Beijing was not forthcoming about the
illness. US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo has even suggested that the virus
may have originated from a laboratory in Wuhan, where the health crisis
began. The Chinese government has repeatedly challenged Washington to back
up its incendiary claims with evidence. Pompeo later admitted that there was
no definite proof of that, yet refused to drop the allegation completely. | m*****l
