The Chinese citizen's reaction to the foreign expulsion war between President Donald Trump and President Colombian Petro Gustabo seemed to be strangely calm this week, but it is already a political angle for Beijing. It may have been because I have it.
Trump and Petro had something burning, but last weekend, the short exchange of the subject of forcibly repatriating illegal aliens includes a bombardment of social media from both frank leaders. I did it. Finally, Peter Folded He agreed to maintain his promise to accept an airplane equipped with exiles.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs in China is perfect Rejected To comment on Trump Peter's row, China only cooperated with the repatriation of its own illegal immigrants to the United States. The statement turned out that it was somewhat dishonest, as China had. do not have Until now, it has been cooperating smoothly with the Ministry of Land Security (DHS).
South China Morning Post (SCMP) It has been reported On Tuesday, Zhu Jingyang, an anniversary of Colombia in China, “seemed to be using the conflict” even if the boss of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs spent a quiet time.
ZHU told the Bogota newspaper El Tiempo The relationship between Colombia in China is “the best moment” 45 years later. He describes the two countries as “global cultural power”, and their differences are “we will bring us closer and enrich us.”
Atlantic Ocean on monday Suggested In China, the rapid collapse of the relationship between the United States and Colombia is “exhilarating”, exploding “simple bonkers” in social media, and then pulling out Trump for his “terrible imbalanced” reaction. For this reason, I found that Petro was negligible. threat.
Trump beat the confrontation with Petro, but The Atlantic Ocean We are worried that China may use this case to shake the Latin American countries from the American Alliance.
The non -competitive US leadership era in the area has declined quickly with back mirrors. Recently, China has provided a clear US alternative in trade, finance and technology. In fact, most of Southern America, including Brazil, Argentina, Chile, and Peru, are now exchanged for China rather than the United States. If Mexico is excluded, China's trade is now WAR of US trade in this area.
I had Bloomberg News Similar concern:
Losing an ally in China is a reckless movement at best, and in the worst case. The historic connection with Washington means that Colombia has approached Beijing with a greater attention than many neighbors in the past. South America, North America and European companies usually have a contract and have gained market access through Chinese companies, but there are some exceptions.
As a result, when Colombia's President Gustabopetro visited Beijing in 2023 and raised his relationship with strategic partnerships, the observer was a remarkable victory for China and some of the larger economic involvement with the country. I saw it. Trading with China -Latin America -Raw materials and food supply, and exports of manufacturing have increased over $ 450 billion in 2022 in 2002. An important issue for the relationship, such as anti -drug, peace, and safety.
On the other hand, rattling countries such as Colombia should be considered very comfortable for China to use economic leverage to get what they want. The border immediately, China does not accept refugees, immigrants, or asylean applicants.
Interesting Coda about ZHU in Colombia, after Trump Peter's slow down, the Chinese ambassador won social media, recorded his interview in Bogota long before the drama exploded, and his remarks were announced. What was done was that it was a pure coincidence. At first glance, the timeline has linked them to the expulsion dispute.
“It has nothing to do with what is happening today. ZHU fell into the attitude of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in China, far away from overseas expulsion issues, and said modestly.
