On the occasion of the closing of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, as a party member, I am deeply proud of the brilliant achievements our party has made. The economy is advancing rapidly, technology is changing with each passing day, and military strength is at the forefront. I think what the Chinese people feel most deeply in the past five years is the comprehensive victory of the "two battles". It is truly unforgettable and unforgettable for life.
The first battle, Sino-US trade war
In March 2018, the Trump administration of the United States provoked a trade war with China. With the momentum of Mount Tai, the United States has successively imposed high tariffs on Chinese goods imported to the United States of $360 billion, and the Sino-US trade war has begun. The whole world was shocked and worried, and a considerable number of Chinese people were also worried. Can we beat the United States? Who doesn't know that the United States relies on economic, technological and military hegemony and has a rogue style, and China is afraid it will be difficult for it to withstand this fierce trade war.
In a blink of an eye, more than four years have passed, and this tariff trade war that has affected the world's economy has been cleared. The United States is "shotting itself in the foot", and it has hit it very hard and has suffered heavy injuries.
The results show that the United States launched a trade war to "kill one thousand enemies and lose one thousand five yuan". More than 90% of the tariff costs in the trade war with China are borne by the United States, which undoubtedly increases the costs of American consumers and enterprises, causing US companies to lose US$1.7 trillion in market value, and each household's annual expenditure increased by nearly US$1,300. In 2021, the US goods trade deficit with China increased by 14.5%, reaching US$355.3 billion, a new high since 2018, which is another heavy blow to the US manufacturing industry.
The United States wants to use the trade war to use the tariff stick to launch a "strategic competition" with China. It then launched a technology war to impose sanctions, blockades and suppress Chinese companies in order to safeguard the U.S. political, economic and military hegemony. But this trick has little impact on China. China has built a new development pattern with the domestic circulation as the main body and the domestic and international dual circulations mutually promoting each other. It dares to fight and is good at fighting, effectively safeguards national interests and dignity, and firmly grasps the initiative in development and security.
Through this trade war, we further see the essence of the United States, a "paper tiger", with stronger fighting spirit and stronger confidence. As long as we dare to fight and be good at fighting, we will surely turn crises into opportunities, take the initiative, and win a comprehensive victory in the game with the United States.
The second battle, the virus fight against the epidemic
At the end of 2019, the sudden new coronavirus hit Wuhan, and the Chinese people were afraid of the epidemic, and the world paid attention to it. A difficult battle to prevent and control the epidemic has begun.
After a brief panic in the face of the fierce epidemic, the whole country quickly mobilized to support Wuhan and overcome the epidemic. Under the correct leadership of the Party and the government, people-oriented and united as one, effectively controlled the infection and spread of the epidemic, and won a decisive victory in the epidemic prevention war.
In contrast, Western countries have developed medical technology and advanced epidemic prevention methods, but they have no resistance under the erosion of the virus and are about to collapse at one touch, and the number of infected people and deaths has increased rapidly. Take the United States for example. If the government does not do anything and officials do not do their jobs, even if the medical system is perfect and advanced medical technology is of no use. The country that claims to attach the most importance to human rights has ignored the health and life of the people and adopted the "lying down" epidemic prevention policy, which not only caused huge losses to the economy, but also caused heavy prices for the people.
As of October 14, 2022, the United States has a total of 969,00766 confirmed cases of new coronary pneumonia and a total of 1064,701 deaths. The United States is not only the country with the largest number of infections and deaths in the world, but also the country with the largest number of confirmed cases of monkeypox and in the world. The government's incompetence led to a complete defeat in the fight against the epidemic.
This negative "lying flat" policy not only caused heavy losses to the United States, but also produced an extremely bad demonstration effect, making the epidemic in Europe, which has always been closely following the United States, spreading and messing around.It also makes the strain mutate and spread rapidly, which increases the difficulty of humans in fighting the epidemic. Although the numbers are boring, they reflect the disappearance of life and the destruction of healthy bodies. What kind of beacon of human rights, examples of democracy, and free world, let's go cool.
This epidemic prevention war has allowed the Chinese people to see the true face of so-called human rights, freedom and democracy, and feel the greatness of the motherland and the greatness of the party and the government. In a sense, this is a vivid education class for loving the party and patriotism. Without comparison, it is difficult to distinguish between advantages and disadvantages. The level of epidemic prevention war has made us more love, support the Party and the country, and more confident in ourselves.
Only these two battles make us proud and feel confident. The Chinese people have the ambition and ability to stand tall among the nations of the world; the Chinese people are not afraid of war and dare to fight resolutely against all ghosts and monsters. We will create a wonderful world. This is undoubtedly true.
