“中國人對於異族，歷來只有兩種稱呼，一種叫禽獸，一種是聖上。從沒有稱他朋友，說他和我們是一樣的。” -- 魯迅

副總統彭斯今天在Hudson智庫談中國的重要演說，強力譴責中國共產黨追求專制的擴張主義、壓迫人民、宗教、言論、新聞自由。
而且利用經濟發展帶來的紅利發展軍力、加強控制國民、監控體系、構建網路防火牆來阻攔信息自由等，其中很多用的是美國的技術。甚至開始影響美國政治與大選，透過強大的國營媒體（點名央視）啟動''輿論戰''干涉美國民主。
彭斯還提到中國利用所謂的 “債務外交” 來擴大其影響力。透過不透明的貸款條款，為其他國家提供數千億美元的基礎設施建設貸款，而且這些利益絕大多數流向北京。

談到台灣的有兩大段，一是彭斯點出去年在中國共產黨說服下，與台灣斷交的3個拉丁美洲國家。二是關於美國航空公司或飯店在中國官方壓力下改名的案例。
''And since last year, the Chinese Communist Party has convinced 3 Latin American nations to sever ties with Taipei and recognize Beijing. These actions threaten the stability of the Taiwan Strait – and the United States of America condemns these actions. And while our administration will continue to respect our One China Policy, as reflected in the three joint communiques and the Taiwan Relations Act, America will always believe Taiwan’s embrace of democracy shows a better path for all the Chinese people.''

''Chinese authorities have also threatened U.S. companies that depict Taiwan as a distinct geographic entity, or that stray from Chinese policy on Tibet. Beijing compelled Delta Airlines to publicly apologize for not calling Taiwan a “province of China” on its website. It also pressured Marriott to fire a U.S. employee who liked a tweet about Tibet.''

但是，在川普總統的領導下，'' those days are over! ''
川普要建立強大的軍隊、建立網路安全體系、用關稅為槓桿，直到美中之間達成公平的貿易協議。
句尾引用了Lu Shwun：
The great Chinese story-teller Lu Shwun often lamented that his country “has either looked down at foreigners as brutes, or up to them as saints, but never as equals.” Today, America is reaching out our hand to China; we hope that Beijing will soon reach back – with deeds, not words, and with renewed respect for America. But we will not relent until our relationship with China is grounded in fairness, reciprocity, and respect for sovereignty.
嗯。
