Sunak should stop shooting his mouth off

Since the pressure from Washington for him to be tough on Beijing was enough for United Kingdom Prime Minister Rishi Sunak to openly call China "biggest challenge of our age to global security and prosperity" in a news conference after the G7 summit in Hiroshima, Japan, on Sunday, nobody knows how far the UK leader will go if Washington tightens the screws on him.

Parroting Washington's rhetoric, he said that China is the "only country with both the means and intent to reshape the world order", and "this is all about de-risking, not de-coupling". When asked to expound on what he meant by that, Sunak said: "We will work together as the G7 and with other countries to make sure that we can de-risk ourselves and the vulnerability of supply chains that we have seen from China, take the steps necessary to protect ourselves against hostile investment and do so in a way that doesn't damage each other."

Sunak was the only leader of the rich club to be so loose-lipped. It is clear that he is betting all the United Kingdom's national interests on the United States.

He has also taken a leaf out of Washington's playbook blaming the UK's domestic economic and social problems on external challenges, even though everyone without bias knows that China is a builder of world peace, contributor to global development and defender of the international order. Meanwhile the US and a few of its vassals, with the UK being a case in point, are constantly interfering in other countries' internal affairs and provoking confrontation and confrontation. It is they who are the biggest challenge to global stability and prosperity.

It is suggested that Sunak devote more energy to dealing with the UK's own domestic political, economic and social problems, instead of always blindly following the US, stirring up trouble everywhere, and creating division and confrontation. Sunak should immediately stop slandering China so as not to cause further damage to China-UK relations, for which the Sunak government should be held accountable.
