摘要:
如果美國計劃利用《Indo-Pacific Economic Framework》(IPEF)(印太經濟架構 https://reurl.cc/Wr2Xy7 )來對付中國,中國可以利用其自給自足戰略來增強其經濟韌性。
中國的自給自足戰略:
- 建立一個獨立的、自力更生的國家統一市場
- 一個以人民幣為基礎的全球能源交易商品系統
- 推廣使用跨境銀行支付系統。
破壞全球供應鏈:
- 中國通過執行《出口管制法》(ECL)(Export Control Law of the People's Republic of China- https://reurl.cc/7D13Wk)來限制中國的市場准入和限制稀土出口,從而擾亂全球供應鏈。
- 中國還利用其在北京控制的港口影響力,限制外國人進入供應鏈。
這些策略對中國的好處:
- 減少中國被制裁後受到的負面影響 。
- 降低其他國家對中國進行經濟脅迫的意願。
- 在緊張局勢加劇的情況下抵消美國的地緣經濟力量。
美國從中能做的:
- 探索這些措施的風險和漏洞。
- 仔細評估中國的能力。
- 關注需要發展支持的國家。
Summary:
China can enhance its economic resilience if the US plans to use the Indo-Pacific Economic Framework for Prosperity (IPEF) against it through self-reliance strategies and disrupting global supply chain.
Self-reliant strategies:
- Building an independent and self-reliant national unified market.
- Building a Yuan-based global commodities systems for energy transactions.
- Promoting the usage of Cross-Border Interbank Payment System.
Disrupting global supply chain:
- China can also disrupt global supply chains by enforcing its Export Control Law (ECL) to limit China's market access and restrict rare earth exports.
- China also use its leverage in Beijing- controlled ports to restrict foreigners' access to supply chains.
Pros of these strategies to China:
- Allow China to curtail the effect of sanctions.
- Reduce the willingness of economic coercion against China.
- Neutralize US's geoeconomic power in case of heightened tension.
What the US can do:
- Explore the risks and loopholes for these strategies.
- Carefully assess Chinese capabilities.
- Bolster the attractiveness of the US's leadership.
- Pay attention to countries that need development support.
