中新網(wǎng)北京5月26日電(蔣鯉)近日，美國總統(tǒng)拜登的首個(gè)亞太行落幕，他宣布啟動(dòng)的“印太經(jīng)濟(jì)框架”作為“印太戰(zhàn)略”經(jīng)濟(jì)領(lǐng)域的延伸，處處透露出拉攏多個(gè)國家形成對中國“合圍”，并將中國排除出地區(qū)貿(mào)易體系的圖謀。

　　在區(qū)域經(jīng)濟(jì)影響力上對抗中國，美國官員并不諱言。不久前，美國貿(mào)易代表戴琪受訪時(shí)就表示，“印太經(jīng)濟(jì)框架”旨在“有效反制中國不斷增長的影響力”。

　　從奧巴馬政府時(shí)期的“亞太再平衡”戰(zhàn)略，到特朗普政府時(shí)期的“印太戰(zhàn)略”，再到拜登政府時(shí)期的改良版“印太戰(zhàn)略”，美國重返亞太的步伐從未停歇。此番啟動(dòng)的“印太經(jīng)濟(jì)框架”，就是美國打著“貿(mào)易”的幌子吸引亞太國家的手段，本質(zhì)上來說，它依然服務(wù)于美國的地緣政治利益。

　　盡管拜登政府宣稱“印太經(jīng)濟(jì)框架”不是一個(gè)自由貿(mào)易協(xié)議，而是一種比傳統(tǒng)自由貿(mào)易協(xié)議更為寬松和量身定制的安排，但缺乏明確的貿(mào)易條款令其前景黯淡。

　　美國政府的愿景雄心勃勃，但分析人士認(rèn)為，如果不提供更多的市場準(zhǔn)入，美國就沒有利益誘餌來鼓勵(lì)他國加入。一方面利用政治霸權(quán)脅迫別國選邊站隊(duì)，另一方面又妄圖用空頭支票吸引盡可能多的國家加入對抗中國的陣營。

　　美國表面是為加強(qiáng)區(qū)域合作、促進(jìn)地區(qū)開放繁榮，實(shí)則是搞小圈子、制造地緣對抗，將中國排除在亞太地區(qū)的產(chǎn)業(yè)鏈和價(jià)值鏈之外。這樣人為制造經(jīng)濟(jì)脫鉤，勢必會(huì)破壞亞太地區(qū)原本穩(wěn)定的供應(yīng)鏈網(wǎng)絡(luò)，危害該地區(qū)經(jīng)濟(jì)和相關(guān)國家利益，注定了其圖謀必然失敗的結(jié)局。

　　中方正在高質(zhì)量實(shí)施《區(qū)域全面經(jīng)濟(jì)伙伴關(guān)系協(xié)定》(RCEP)，與東盟成員積極打造中國-東盟自貿(mào)區(qū)3.0版，持續(xù)推進(jìn)加入《全面與進(jìn)步跨太平洋伙伴關(guān)系協(xié)定》(CPTPP)和《數(shù)字經(jīng)濟(jì)伙伴關(guān)系協(xié)定》(DEPA)，為全球和區(qū)域經(jīng)濟(jì)穩(wěn)定增長持續(xù)提供推動(dòng)力。

　　可以預(yù)期，中國自貿(mào)區(qū)布局未來將不斷優(yōu)化，對外開放大門將越開越大。中國與自貿(mào)區(qū)伙伴間實(shí)現(xiàn)了貿(mào)易投資的自由化和便利化，有利于加強(qiáng)全球價(jià)值鏈協(xié)作，助力自貿(mào)伙伴獲得更穩(wěn)定、更強(qiáng)勁的經(jīng)濟(jì)增長。

　　和睦相處、合作共贏才是亞太地區(qū)的主流聲音。亞太應(yīng)該成為和平發(fā)展的高地，而不是地緣政治的決斗場。正如中國國務(wù)委員兼外長王毅說的那樣，中方?jīng)]有地緣政治的私心，只有團(tuán)結(jié)合作的誠意。中方無意與任何國家打什么擂臺，只是希望與地區(qū)各國共同發(fā)展。試圖拿一個(gè)什么框架來孤立中國，最終孤立的將是他們自己。(完)

　　U.S.-dominated IPEF lacks promise

　　By John Lee

　　(ECNS) -- The U.S. government on Sunday announced the launch of the Indo-Pacific Economic Framework (IPEF) in Tokyo, which is in fact an extension of the country’s “Indo-Pacific Strategy”， revealing its ulterior motives, that is, to set up a wider alliance to contain China.

　　Some U.S. politicians openly talked about suppressing China with regional economic influence. Not long ago, U.S. Trade Representative Katherine Tai said in an interview that the IPEF serves to “counter Chinese outreach in the region.”

　　This is proven by former U.S. President Obama’s strategy of advancing a rebalance toward Asia and the Pacific, Donald Trump’s “Indo-Pacific Strategy” and the improved “Indo-Pacific Strategy” by the current Biden administration.

　　And the IPEF attracting more partners in the Asia-pacific region on the pretext of “trade” in essence still serves the geopolitical interests of the U.S.

　　Although the Biden administration declared that the framework was not a free trade agreement (FTA)， but a more relaxed and tailored arrangement, the lack of clear trade terms makes its prospects uncertain.

　　Analysts believe it is not easy for the IPEF to attract more participants because it doesn’t offer incentives to prospective partners by lowering tariffs or provide signatories with greater access to U.S. markets. On one hand, the U.S. forces its allies to join its side by coercion, while on the other hand, the country dreams to absorb more partners with rubber cheque to suppress China.

　　It preaches the goal of strengthening regional cooperation and promoting the opening and prosperity of the Asia-Pacific region, but the real motives behind this strategy it to build up a small bloc to incite geopolitical confrontation to exclude China from the industrial and value chains of the region and eventually isolate it.

　　The U.S. artificially decouples economic ties, which is bound to disrupt the originally stable supply chain network in the Asia-Pacific region, endanger the regional economy, along with the interests of relevant countries, thus leading to the failure of its scheme.

　　China is implementing the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (RCEP) with high quality, actively building version 3.0 of the China-ASEAN Free Trade Area with ASEAN members, and continuously promoting its accession to the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP) and the Digital Economic Partnership Agreement (DEPA)， thus providing a continuous impetus for the steady growth of global and regional economies.

　　China's free trade zone layout is expected to be further optimized in the future, with the country aiming to open its doors wider. The liberalization and facilitation of trade and investment between China and its free trade partners is conducive to strengthening global value chain cooperation and helping its partners achieve more stable and stronger economic growth.

　　Harmony and win-win cooperation are the mainstream in the Asia-Pacific region. As Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi said, China has no intention to engage in geopolitics, but only promote solidarity and cooperation sincerely. China has no intention to challenge any country, but only expect common development with regional countries. The one trying to use a framework to isolate China will eventually isolate itself.
