Xi’s new US-China formula signals a self-confident shift in terms
Xi Jinping has introduced a new guiding formulation for US-China relations called 'constructive strategic stability'. This formulation emphasizes cooperation and managed competition between the two nations. It reflects China's desire to establish itself as an equal partner in international order and stability.
- ▪The new formulation consists of four layers: positive stability with cooperation, stability with moderate competition, stability with manageable differences, and enduring stability with promises of peace.
- ▪China's Foreign Minister Wang Yi highlighted the importance of respecting each other's social systems and core interests to achieve enduring stability.
- ▪The formulation indicates a shift in China's approach, seeking to manage competition rather than allowing it to escalate unchecked.
