【新唐人2013年09月07日訊】9月5號到6號，在俄羅斯聖彼德堡召開二十國集團（G20）領導人第八次峰會。主題本應該是增長和就業問題，但因為目前敘利亞危機，美國總統歐巴馬和俄羅斯總統普京互不買帳，國際社會也因此分成兩派。而首次亮相G20峰會的中共國家主席習近平，毫無懸念的選擇支持俄國。
9月5號，歐巴馬抵達G20主辦地——聖彼德堡的康斯坦丁宮，與普京握手後就轉身離開了。英國《衛報》透露，根據原先安排，普京與歐巴馬在峰會會場的座位中間僅隔一個人，但開會時經臨時調整，他們中間隔了5名領導人。普京設晚宴招待賓客，歐巴馬足足遲到了半小時。
白宮還宣佈，歐巴馬與普京不會在峰會的間隙舉行雙邊正式會談。相反，首次參加G20峰會的習近平，不僅與普京會見了兩次，中、俄還簽署了天然氣東線管道框架協定。
媒體認為，在聖彼德堡G20峰會上，歐巴馬尋求世界各國領導人對武力打擊敘利亞的進一步支援，是他的主要目地。參加會議國也因此分成了兩派，美國的支持者將包括法國、英國、土耳其、沙特、日本等﹔俄國、中國、巴西和墨西哥則相反。
英國《路透社》指出，普京堅決反對對敘利亞動武，這是美、俄兩國關係的最大障礙。
習近平在6號與歐巴馬的會晤中，奉勸歐巴馬：對敘動武要三思而行。
《人民日報》旗下的《環球時報》6號發表社評文章說，美國計劃繞開聯合國，軍事打擊敘利亞，而且選在G20峰會前炒熱這個計劃，是向世界炫耀它主宰國際政治的所謂「肌肉」。文章讚揚俄羅斯阻止美國，並號召新興國家聲援俄羅斯。
美國中文雜誌《中國事務》總編輯伍凡：「世界需要世界警察，你不想做世界警察，又反對人家做世界警察，你又想從中間得到好處，天底下是個怪事。中國就做這麼角色，他想處處得好處，又不出力氣，這就是中共。」
旅美政論家伍凡認為，世界秩序也需要有人維護，沒有人管會更亂。
美國紐約城市大學政治學教授夏明：「中國經常躲在俄國的後面，經常作為俄國的跟班或合作者跟美國對抗。從某種程度上說，中國現在已經沒有自信膽敢在國際舞臺上能夠站在俄國的前面，能夠直接跟美國對抗。」
參加G20會議的澳大利亞世界展望會執行長蒂姆•卡斯楚說：「敘利亞的200萬難民、100萬兒童，10萬人死亡是世界最重要的問題，因此，討論敘利亞問題是不可迴避的。」
美國務卿克里4號透露，美國已經就對敘動武問題聯繫過上百個國家，31個國家和組織已經公開或私下表態，認同是敘利亞政府實施了化學武器攻擊。34個國家和組織表明，如果上述情況屬實，他們將支持對敘利亞採取行動。
克里還表示，目前願意參戰或協助的國家可能在10個左右，一些阿盟國家還願意承擔費用。
澳大利亞外長卜卡（Bob Carr）6號宣佈，澳洲情報機構已獨立證實敘利亞政府軍對平民使用了化學武器，因此，澳洲將支持美國對敘利亞實施軍事打擊。
夏明：「在國內意識形態的選擇和在國際上跟俄國靠得越來越近，試圖對抗美國，我覺得這兩個錯誤的選擇。其實，全球的經濟重心現在又在往美國回歸、往西方國家回歸。在這種情況下，中國非常被動。」
美國「紐約城市大學」政治學教授夏明認為，中共在意識形態上選擇對抗西方的普世價值，只能使他們在世界上更孤立﹔再加上中國目前出現的經濟危機的徵兆，對中共的專制統治是雪上加霜。

Putin and Obama In Disagreement on Syria at G20.
Xi Jinping Stands Alongside Russia
The 8th summit of The Group of Twenty (G20) is being
hosted in St. Petersburg, Russia from September 5 to 6.
The theme of the summit is supposed to be economic
increase and employment.
However on the current Syrian issue, US President
Obama and Russian President Putin don’t accept each others’ opinions.
The international society is also divided into two camps.
Chinese regime leader Xi Jinping attended the G20 summit
for the first time. Unsurprisingly he took sides with Russia.
On September 5, Obama arrived at the host venue of G20,
Konstantin Palace in St. Petersburg, Russia.
Obama shook hands with Putin, turned around and left.
The British Guardian newspaper reported that Putin and
Obama’s positions were originally separated by one seat.
After some temporary adjustment, the gap between them
was widened by five leaders’ seats, when the summit started.
Putin hosted a banquet at the reception, which Obama arrived
half an hour late for.
The White House also announced that Obama and Putin
will not have official talks during the summit.
In contrast, Xi Jinping’s first time attendance at the G20 Summit
was marked by two meetings with Putin.
He also signed a framework agreement for the eastern
gas pipeline project.
Media report said during the G20 summit, Obama wanted
support from leaders all over the world to attack Syria.
This was his main purpose here.
Countries attending the summit
fell into two groups;
US supporters included France, England, Turkey,
Saudi Arabia, and Japan.
Against the US were Russia, China, Brazil, and Mexico.
Reuters says Putin’s opponent to the military strike against
Syria is the biggest obstacle in US-Russia relations.
Xi Jinping advised Obama during a meeting on
September 6th, “Think twice about attacking Syria".
Global Times owned by People’s Daily, a Chinese
Communist Party (CCP) media reported on 6th,
It said that the US plans to attack Syria
without the UN’s permission.
The US tried to develop the plan before G20,
showing off its power over international politics.
The article praises the Russian opposition to the US,
and calls for emerging countries to support Russia.
Chief editor of US Chinese magazine “China Affairs", Wu Fan,
says: “The world needs a world police.
The CCP doesn’t want to be the world police, and oppose others
who are the world police,but also wants to gain benefit from it.
It’s a strange thing in the world. The CCP wants this part.
It wants benefit everywhere, but doesn’t want to spend effort.
This is the Chinese Communist Party."
Wu Fan believes that world order needs
someone to maintain it.
Things would be more chaotic if there were no such role.
The City University of New York Politics professor
Xia Ming: “China usually hides behind Russia, opposes the US by following or cooperating with Russia.
At some point, China has no confidence to stand in front of
Russia on the international stage to confront the US."
On the G20 summit, World Vision Australia’s CEO
Tim Costello says: “they’re all looking at the utter impotence of the world
when it comes to 2 million refugees, a million of them kids,
100,000 dead in Syria. So I think it’s inescapable."
US Secretary of State John Kerry revealed on
September 4th that the US has contacted over 100 countries about attacking Syria.
31 countries and organizations have declared that
they identify Syria launching chemical weapon attack.
34 countries and organizations indicate they’ll support
taking action against Syria if that’s true.
Kerry also indicates that about 10 countries would
like to offer military help.
Some Arab league states would like to
give financial support.
Australia Foreign Minister Bo Carr announced on
September 6th the Australian intelligence agency
had identified Syria using chemical weapons
towards ordinary civilians .
So Australia will support the US to
have a military strike against Syria.
Xia Ming: “I think there are two wrong choices.
One is domestic ideology; the other is staying close to Russia and trying to
confront the US.
The global economic focus is going back to
the US and western countries.
China is very passive under these circumstances."
Xia Ming believes that China can only isolate itself by
confronting western universal values.
With the current signs of economic crisis in China,
it looks even worse for the ruling of the Chinese Communist Party.
