for U.S.-China relations if America uses a &#8220;Cold War playbook&#8221; against China.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">&#8220;It would be absurd and dangerous to apply the \u2018Cold War playbook&#8217; to today&#8217;s China-U.S. relations,&#8221; Qin Gang, who was appointed by Beijing on July 28, <a href=\"https:\/\/web.archive.org\/web\/20210902002055\/http:\/\/www.china-embassy.org\/eng\/zmgxss\/t1903557.htm\">said<\/a> Tuesday in his first major speech as ambassador. &#8220;Many countries are reluctant or concerned about being forced by the [United States] to pick sides. I hope American politicians would seriously consider: Does suppressing China really serve their purpose? Does it really meet America&#8217;s own interests? Who can bear the disastrous consequences to China-U.S. relations and the world? Dealing with China from a position of strength\u2014the Chinese people simply do not accept it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Qin also called on the Biden administration to reverse the &#8220;extreme China policy&#8221; of the Trump administration.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The ambassador&#8217;s speech comes on the heels of similar remarks from senior Chinese officials.
