So what is Matisse's real intention to come to China this time? In my opinion, there are the following points:
1. Simply sort out the current Sino-US relations, understand China's strategic intentions, and prevent the two sides from misjudging because of the Sino-US trade war.
2. The Korean Peninsula nuclear issue. This visit to China is the result of the DPRK's third visit to China. I want to know the specific situation.
3. China's South China Sea issue is about the so-called freedom of navigation in the South China Sea. At the Shangri-La Forum in early June, Matisse sharply criticized China for "intimidating and coercing" its neighbors with disputed islands and reefs in the South China Sea. He also accused the PLA of deploying anti-ship missiles on artificial islands in the South China Sea and taking off and landing bombers on Yongxing Island in the Xisha Islands. Therefore, the South China Sea issue is also the main point of discussion between the two sides.
4. The problem of Taiwan Province Province. Because the recent trade war has obviously damaged Sino-US relations, and the news that the United States will strengthen official and even military exchanges with Taiwan Province Province, it is also an unshakable topic for the United States to explore the bottom line of China's future US-Taiwan relations.
5. From 7: 00, you can turn off your phone, some analysis is ok, and you can learn a lot.
