Will Obama 2.0 get tougher with China? (2)

It is not a coincidence that the United States started to refocus on Asia-Pacific region and tightened up the policies on China since China replaced Japan to become the world's second largest economy. Although the United States welcome the rise of China ostensibly, it did not put it into practice.

In order to protect China-U.S. relations, China should be more courageous and tactful to participate in the international game and take some issues more seriously.

Of course, there still is huge room for China-U.S. cooperation and deepening of the cooperation is beneficial to the recovery of U.S. economy. For example, the two sides have extensive cooperative prospects in new energy and China's huge market demand will bring fat profits and employment opportunities for the United States. After all, a China-U.S relationship of more cooperation and less antagonism is the most anticipated.
