Chinese leaders, for their part, view America’s strategic “pivot to Asia” as a thinly veiled step to tighten its geopolitical containment of China. Moreover, they have become obsessed with US dominance in international finance and technology and, most important, America’s ideological commitment to liberal democracy, which they regard as an existential threat to the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).
而中国领导人将美国战略性“重返亚洲”视为欲盖弥彰的加紧对华地缘政治遏制的措施。此外，他们着迷于美国在国际金融和科技方面的主宰地位以及，更重要的，美国坚定的自由民主意识形态（他们视为中共的生存威胁）。
