Gates trip to China to gain something

Russian news agency reported that U.S. Defense Secretary Robert Gates ended his trip to China. On the surface, this visit is a courtesy, not achieved important results, but this is Hu Jintao’s visit next week to prepare the necessary steps.

If you study the details, you can find many interesting factors. In fact, this visit is related to revaluation of the nature of Sino-US relations. Obama began to seriously study the issue after China and Asia, to carrying out the revaluation. Obama will now appear new, second edition China policy, the first edition of its China policy is not effective.

Commerce Secretary’s visit to Beijing is not, but the defense, they are not. The reason is that now both are in the United States or China 70s of last century the situation of US-Soviet relations: on the one hand, the arms race against each other; the other hand, the absence of any rules of the game, this contest will be very dangerous to continue.

Taiwan issue has risen to the world’s largest and second largest strategic balance between the power level. In fact, Washington and Beijing are learning to have a dialogue.

United States estimates that Gates’s trip to Beijing is Obama’s idea. But China’s response to this very indifferent and reluctant. This is important. U.S. decision to learn to dialogue with China. In recent months (just a U.S. aircraft carrier, when gathered in China’s coastal areas), there is no effective dialogue between the two countries.
