Chapter 832: The Way of Balance

At present, although China has become Mongolia's largest investor and trading partner, and China's political influence on Mongolia has increased year by year, this has not completely eliminated the vigilance of some Mongolians against China. They are always worried that China will annex Mongolia sooner or later, and believe that China's investment in Mongolia is a plunder of its resources.

A considerable number of Mongolian people still have a complex mentality about China. They are both envious and fearful of their rapid development of southern neighbors, and are both intimidating and guarding against each other. For example, although Mongolia believes that the continued rapid development of China's economy has provided good opportunities for cooperation between the two countries, when the country urgently needs foreign investment, some people in Mongolia were unwilling to accept (some members oppose) the largest preferential loan provided by China to Mongolia since the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and Mongolia (this loan was agreed by the two sides when the head of the visit to Mongolia on June 1, 2003, and signed by both sides when Mongolian President Enkhbayar visited China in November 2005), and were worried that the economy would be overly dependent on China and be controlled. In the middle and lower classes of Mongolia, although the people generally cannot do without China's low-end and low-end daily necessities, many people oppose the Chinese long-term mining of large mines in Mongolia, and even Chinese-funded enterprises in Mongolia are often attacked and tampered with unknown attacks and troubles.

Overall, it is because of some problems in China's foreign policy that there are no cultural and economic aggression ideas of wolves in sheep's clothing like Japan. Although they have done a lot of good things, they are still thankless.

In Jiang Feng's view, China cannot only be satisfied with the achievements that China-Mongolia friendly and mutual trust partnership established by the two countries. China is Mongolia's largest investor and largest trading partner. China should increase efforts at the cultural level, strengthen work in terms of ideology, cultural identity, social psychology and people's emotions, and increase the catalytic role of culture in the political relations and economic and trade ties between China and Mongolia, so as to establish the image of a truly friendly neighbor in the hearts of the Mongolian people.

In fact, changing the image of China and Japan in the minds of the Mongolian people is not a difficult task, because according to another information obtained by Jiang Feng, it shows that Japan and the United States have always had great thunder and little rainfall, and it looks a lot, but it is very pitiful. After signing a military agreement with Mongolia, the United States agreed to provide Mongolia with loans and free aid to Mongolia for a few billion yuan. In the past tens of millions of dollars, the funds actually in place were only tens of millions of dollars, and were also designated to promote Mongolia's wise ruleization process. The subsequent funds have not been approved by Congress so far.

The situation in Japan is similar to that in the United States. According to statistics, Japan provided a total of US$1.3 billion in loans and unpaid aid to Mongolia from 1991 to 2004, with an average of US$100 million per year, but the actual funds received were very small, which is less than one. Moreover, like the funds provided by the United States, the use of this money must be under the strict control of donors, and most of them are used for so-called party expenses.

In fact, since 1992, China and Germany have provided the most assistance to Mongolia. China accounts for more than half of the actual funds. The funds provided by Germany are mainly used for environmental protection. China's funds are mainly used for basic expenses such as food, urban construction, and road construction. Some of the aid is not in the form of currency, but in the form of labor or aid.

In Jiang Feng's view, such a reality is an opportunity for China to reverse the image of China and Japan in the minds of the Mongolian people. It is not difficult to achieve this only if we need to adopt appropriate forms of publicity.

Jiang Feng frowned and looked at the information here. Some people around him noticed it. He was thinking about what made Jiang Feng so unhappy? There were really not many things that could make him frown.

Wang Liqun, director of the Political Research Office of the National Court, came over and asked Jiang Feng why he was not happy. Jiang Feng didn't hide anything. He handed it to him with a stack of reports and said, "Japan just started investing in Mongolia, but he couldn't sit still and was about to cause trouble for me."

Wang Liqun looked at the report and said to Jiang Feng: "This is also normal. Mongolia is located in the hinterland of Asia, with a large area and a small population. It is one of the poorest and most closed countries in the world. Mongolia used to be a sphere of influence of the Soviet Union and was a little brother for seventy years. After the collapse of the Soviet Union, Mongolia stepped onto the world stage and became the object of a game between great powers. In recent years, the United States and Japan have vigorously won over Mongolia, aiming to use Mongolia's special geographical location to build a strategic encirclement of China and Russia. Naturally, it is necessary to take action to deserve the money they paid."

As he said this, Wang Liqun continued to read the information, and Jiang Feng was also thinking about Wang Liqun's words and agreed with it.

One of the purposes of the United States to win over Mongolia is to implement the global wise rule strategy it formulated. The United States believes that Mongolia has become a wise rule country after reform, so it regards Mongolia as a model for promoting color revolution in Central Asia, and also as a pressure to promote the implementation of wise rule in China and Russia.

The main purpose of the United States to win over Mongolia is to curb China and Russia and build a strategic encirclement against China and Russia.

In order to dominate the world, the United States has stepped up its deployment in Europe and Central Asia, squeezed Russia's strategic space, and deployed it in Asia and the Pacific region to contain China.

Therefore, the United States attaches great importance to Mongolia's special geographical location close to China and Russia, and strives to make Mongolia a pro-Western country and include Mongolia in its strategic network. The United States not only attempts to connect Mongolia with the siege of Russia built by the United States in Central and Eastern Europe, Turkey, Ukraine, Georgia and other places, but also attempts to connect Mongolia with the blockade chain established by the United States in Japan, South Korea, Okinawa, Taiwan, Philippines and other places, so as to achieve the goal of curbing China and Russia.

At this time, Wang Liqun had read the information Jiang Feng received and continued to say to Jiang Feng: "The reason why Japan wooed Mongolia is not only about Mongolia's mineral resources, but also political factors. At present, Japan competes with China, Russia, South Korea and North Korea on political, historical and territorial issues, resulting in tensions in relations. For this reason, Japan strives to win over Mongolia, which has no conflict of interest with it, in order to alleviate its diplomatic isolation. Secondly, Japan is highly vigilant of China and is also resentful of the territorial dispute between Russia and Japan. Japan has formed a relationship with the United States.

To form an alliance and establish a security system between Japan and the United States, the spearhead is targeted both China and Russia. In the past, the "Tanaka Memorial" fabricated by Japanese warlords clamored that if you want to conquer Asia, you must first conquer China. If you want to conquer China, you must first conquer Manchuria and Mongolia. Now, Japan's right wing has colluded with the United States and actively won over Mongolia. The potential purpose is to bring Mongolia into the security system between Japan and the United States and form a restraint on China and Russia. If you move their cake now, you will naturally feel dissatisfied. Moreover, the Mitsui chaebol is not so easy to deal with."

Jiang Feng waved his hand and said, "It's hard to deal with it. I haven't had any conflicts with them before. Now I have a conflict with them at my own doorstep. Is it more difficult to abuse them in Japan?"

"That's possible." Wang Liqun shook his head and said with a smile, "No one can restrain you in Japan, so you can naturally let go and do it unscrupulously. However, in Mongolia, all aspects of the impact need to be considered, and it may not be so easy to do it."

Jiang Feng scratched his head, thinking that Wang Liqun's words may not make no sense. Once anything is involved in diplomacy, it will become very troublesome. Fortunately, the company he registered is overseas, which can relieve the pressure on the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. But who doesn't know that his nest is in China?

"In fact, to deal with this matter better, you still have to accurately grasp the Mongolian pulse." Wang Liqun said to Jiang Feng.

"I would like to ask Uncle Wang for advice." Jiang Feng said very politely.

Jiang Feng suddenly realized that the political research office was not a good meal. At least they were studying the international situation all day long and providing decision-making basis for the formulation of various policies for the government. Although it cannot be said that it is correct at all times, it is obviously better to grasp the international situation. Although he has a professional analysis team in international finance, it is a bit worse when it comes to the political level.

"The reason why Mongolia is close to the United States and Japan is mainly to gain foreign aid and go to the world. Mongolia wants to rely on the United States and Japan to enhance its international status and obtain as much economic benefits as possible. In addition, Mongolia has been politically implemented by Western-style politically, transitioning to a market economy, and has greatly westernized culture. As a result, Mongolia's traditional culture has been impacted, and a pro-Western thought has appeared in society. Many people are close to the West and have a good impression of Europeans and Americans. Young people especially like the United States. It can be said that Mongolia is one of the most westernized countries in Asia." Wang Liqun said to Jiang Feng, "Mongolia was controlled by the Soviet Union for a long time in the past, and after the collapse of the Soviet Union, it was once again dominated by Russia.

The abandonment of Russia led to a significant reduction in Russia's aid to Mongolia and a decrease in bilateral trade volume by 80%. Reflecting on the lessons of history, Mongolia concluded that all hopes must not be placed on Russia in the future. Mongolia is also wary of China because Mongolia is part of China in history. Although it was proficient in the founding of the country, it was always worried that China might annex Mongolia in the future. Faced with the rapid development of China's economy, Mongolia also has a complex mentality. On the one hand, it hopes to take the Chinese economic express train to revitalize Mongolia's economy, but on the other hand, it is unwilling to rely too much on China. It is precisely because of its vigilance against China and Russia that Mongolia strives to implement balanced diplomacy and develop relations with the United States, Japan and other countries."

"Balance diplomacy." Jiang Feng seemed to have caught some shining point.

Now the Mitsui chaebols have begun to use their influence in Mongolia's political axe to try to block their mining operations in Mongolia. However, because they are worried that the passage will not be opened on the road, they dare not rashly enter the Mongolian mineral resources market. This has led to them being able to hold back but not taking over the business of the Jiang Consortium because they dare not make this heavy bet. Once the international situation changes, China and Russia will be able to fight from north to south, and no resources from Mongolia can be transported out, and they cannot take this huge risk to invest.

However, Mongolia's current foreign economic policies are open, so they can't stop them for long.

In this case, we still have to balance it, and Jiang Feng suddenly had a solution. (To be continued.)
