British media advised the United States not to focus on suppressing Chinese science (the picture has nothing to do with the text, but comes from the Internet)
Reported on June 15 by the reference news website On June 13, the website of The Economist published an article entitled "How Worried Is the Rapid Rise of Chinese Science?". The article is compiled as follows:
Politicians in Washington are using export controls and sanctions to try to prevent China from gaining technological advantage.
The US strategy is unlikely to work. China's science and innovation are making rapid progress. In addition, the US strategy is misleading. If the United States hopes to stay ahead and gain the greatest benefit from the research of Chinese scientists, it is better to focus less on suppressing Chinese science and more on promoting its own progress.
In recent decades, as China has joined the world economy, its rapid catch up means that it is more an imitator than an innovator. At the same time, China's scientific research has been belittled, partly because researchers have produced a large number of low-quality scientific papers. It's time to let go of these old ideas. China is now a leading scientific power. Its scientists have made some of the best research achievements in the world, especially in chemistry, physics and materials science. They published more papers in well-known journals than their counterparts in the United States and the European Union, and their works were cited more often.
Chinese laboratories have some of the most advanced equipment, ranging from supercomputers, ultra-high energy detectors to cryogenic electron microscopes. In addition, China has a large number of talents. Many researchers who studied or worked in the West have returned home. China is also cultivating scientists: among the world's top AI researchers, the number of people who have obtained their first degree in China is more than twice that in the United States.
In terms of business innovation, China is also subverting old ideas. The batteries and electric vehicles exported by China are not only cheap, but also the most advanced.
All this puts the United States in a dilemma. The emergence of more advanced science will bring new knowledge to benefit all mankind, which will solve world problems, improve life and deepen understanding. Thanks to Chinese agronomists, farmers everywhere can harvest more bumper crops. Its perovskite based solar panel works equally well in Gabon and the Gobi Desert.
So far, the United States has focused on threats and tried to stop China by imposing sanctions and restricting the flow of data, talent and ideas.
This overestimated the ability of the United States to restrict science in China as a whole. It underestimated the cost of the US's own science, including the cost of technology to support its safety.
For a long time, the United States has attracted the brightest talents in the world, and it should continue to attract them - even those from China. The United States must also be open to ideas. Due to Republican concerns about national security, an agreement reached between China and the United States in the late 1970s to strengthen academic cooperation was reluctantly extended for six months in the first half of this year. The agreement should be extended longer. (Compiled by/Wang Haifang)

Niu plays the piano: G7 also targets China and publicly asks China not to retaliate
Sure enough, the G7 still can't bear it. Besides Ukraine, the hottest spot, it also targets China.
It is totally expected that without criticizing China, it would not be G7. But I always think that this kind of gossip at least explains one point.
Which point?
Just two words: FALSE.
The West is too hypocritical. Let's put it this way. If you look carefully at the G7 statement and mention China, there are at least six aspects.
Every aspect is hypocritical.
1. The most frequently reported issue involves Russia and Ukraine.
G7 declared that it is "deeply concerned" about the so-called support of China for Russia, focusing on the following sentence, "China's continuous support for Russia's defense industrial base enables Russia to maintain its illegal war in Ukraine and has a significant and extensive impact on security".
Even the United States and Ukraine admit that China has not provided any weapons to Russia. The West, on the other hand, has continuously provided Ukraine with all kinds of arms.
In addition, according to western media reports, many parts of Russia actually come from the West.
Now, turn around and blame China?
Enough hypocrisy.
2. Call on China to cooperate, including to deal with the climate crisis.
It has to be said that the G7 statement is carefully worded.
The G7 statement said that we act in accordance with our national interests, "Considering China's role in the international community, we must cooperate to deal with global challenges"
In the next sentence, "We call on China to step up its efforts to promote international peace and security and work with us to deal with climate, biodiversity and pollution crises..."
Well said, how can we cope with the climate crisis together?
In the past few years, China has produced the most electric vehicles, new energy batteries and photovoltaic products in the world, making the most significant contribution to the world's response to the climate crisis.
What about the West?
The strength is not as strong as that of China, and the competition is not as strong as that of China. Therefore, I used various excuses to stab the back of Chinese electric vehicles. In addition, I did not change my face and my heart did not jump, and called on China to jointly deal with the climate crisis.
Enough hypocrisy.
Zelensky Attends G7 Summit
3. Unexpectedly, he publicly asked China not to retaliate.
It's hard to laugh or cry. G7 spent a long time defending its protectionism.
For example, G7 stated that, "We are not trying to hurt China or hinder its economic development"
Isn't that hurt?
The G7 statement also said that, "We will not decouple or turn inward"
Alas, there is no three hundred taels of silver here.
The most interesting sentence is that G7 says, "We further call on China not to take export control measures that may seriously disrupt the global supply chain, especially for key minerals."
Only allow us to impose various sanctions on you, and forbid you to restrict exports to retaliate against me!
Enough hypocrisy.
4. Accusing China of "malicious network activities" 。
what do you mean?
That is to say, China attacks other countries' networks, threatens the security and privacy of the West, destroys innovation, and "endangers our key infrastructure", etc.
To add sin.
Quite simply, where are the most hackers in the world? Which country is best at hacking? What's more, which country attacks Huawei and other Chinese enterprises with various hackers?
Unexpectedly, attack China upside down!
China is far from it.
Enough hypocrisy.
US President Biden and Italian Prime Minister Meloni
5. Unreasonable accusations in the east of Taiwan and in the sea of Hainan.
Let's not talk about the Taiwan Strait issue. The East China Sea, mainly Japan, is jumping up and down.
On the South China Sea issue, the G7 unexpectedly said that, "We are seriously concerned about the increasing use of dangerous manoeuvres and water cannons against Philippine ships."
Only stand, no right or wrong.
They don't ask why the South China Sea was quiet a few years ago, but now the Philippines has all kinds of tricks?
Who's behind the instigation? Who are you presenting your name to?
Moreover, G7 said, "We oppose China's militarization, coercion and intimidation in the South China Sea.".
This is the South China Sea. Now it is a western warship that frequently comes to intimidate and intimidate China. We change roles. If Chinese warships often go to Hawaii and the English Channel... what do the West think?
Enough hypocrisy.
6. Never forget our Tibet, Xinjiang and Hong Kong.
The key is: human rights.
As I said in my previous article, human rights are not the patent of the West, but the common right of all mankind. Frankly speaking, every country, including China and the West, has some shortcomings in human rights.
Regardless of other countries, we should still face up to them and learn from each other's strengths. We should change what we have and encourage what we have not.
On human rights, there is no best, only better. Keep making progress, we will be more active, we should also have this full confidence.
But blaming Tibet, blaming Xinjiang, and using false accusations, would be unscrupulous and shameless.
The West does not look at Gaza. Where is the hell on earth, where the whole world is angry, where is the human rights?
Enough hypocrisy.
Meloni and Argentine President Mille laughed together
I always feel that, It is not that G7 cannot criticize China. If it is reasonable, we can't avoid criticism although we are unhappy. In fact, criticism makes people progress. If there is something to be done, we must be generous.
But unreasonable criticism and double labeling are just slander, slander, demonization and hypocrisy.
In recent days, many friends are most concerned about war and peace in addition to the current economy.
I always feel that in this regard, the West should be the most introspective.
Looking around the world, is there a big country that abides by international rules more than China? Is there a big country that respects the sovereignty of other countries more than China? Is there a big country that cherishes peace and attaches more importance to development than China?
The answer is just two words. We can say it out loud: No,
For the West, there is nothing left to say about China's failure to export revolution, hunger and poverty, and harassment.
Finally, let's say something else.
This G7 is considered to be the last gathering of lame ducks, similar to the last dinner.
Because it is very simple, except for the host, Italian female Prime Minister Meloni, other G7 leaders are all in a state of anxiety. They are likely to bow down when they meet next year.
What does this mean?
Group photo of leaders attending G7 Summit
At least, With the decline of G7, the authority of G7 leaders is no longer.
So, we can see that British Prime Minister Sunak, this bilateral meeting is very rare. Why? He is almost 100% likely to step down, and Westerners don't want to see him waste more time.
Therefore, we can see that Ma Kelong and Biden also quarreled with Meloni. Ma Kelong insisted that the G7 statement be written to support the right to abortion, but Meloni boycotted and angrily criticized Ma Kelong for playing election politics.
Therefore, we can see that the exhausted Biden was so tired and trembling that he even watched the skydiving show. Thanks to Meloni's sharp eyes, he brought back Biden who could not find the North. But many people commented that it was a disastrous scene.
Biden sits next to Millet
So we also see that the G7 has invited some leaders of emerging countries, but the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia has explicitly refused to participate. President Millay of Argentina went and was arranged to sit next to Biden. You know, Millay went to the United States to meet Trump and said, "I want to die"; But I never saw Biden when I went to the United States. Now they are "forced" to sit together. Meloni, what's your heart?
International politics is interesting.
The world is not the original world, G7 is not the original G7. You see him rising high, you see him feasting guests, you see his building collapsed.
