US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo's Chief China Policy Adviser Yu Maochun said that no one is more obsessed with the Cold War than the CCP. The CCP uses self-deception to comfort its fear of freedom. .

Yu Maochun's remarks were aimed at the response of the Chinese Communist Party media "Global Times" to an insulting article made by him. The article stated that Yu Maochun’s speech on the CCP on September 22 showed that he was still living in the Cold War era.

Yu Maochun said, "No one is more obsessed with the Cold War than the CCP. For decades, the CCP has been misled by Marxist-Leninist dogma and believes that the United States must 'decline'... The CCP is deceiving itself and will only deceive itself into paranoia while comforting itself with its fear of freedom."

Tuesday’s speech was a rare public appearance by Yu Maochun, who has always been low-key. At that time, someone asked how to treat the US-China Cold War and the problems of the Chinese Communist military. Yu Maochun replied, "This is not a war between China and the United States, but a war between the Chinese Communist Party and the free world."

He also added: “The foundation of multilateralism is to have shared values. It is very ironic to hear Xi Jinping talk at the United Nations that China is a supporter of multilateralism. This completely reflects that (Xi Jinping) has no self-knowledge.”

Yu Maochun said that a democratic society is already forming a "democratic coalition" to counter the threat of the CCP. He said, "We have Japan, Australia, the United Kingdom, Canada, the European Union, NATO, and ASEAN member states. We all have the same values." "As a true ally, the CCP has nothing (place) that can be trusted. North Korea is of no use to the CCP to a large extent; Russia and the CCP are playing a game of indifference."

Yu Maochun is regarded as a key figure in the Trump administration to formulate policies against the CCP. Pompeo has been hailed as the "core" of the U.S. State Department, and David Stilwell, Assistant Secretary of State for Asia and the Pacific, called the United States "national treasure." US Deputy National Security Advisor Matt Pottinger once said, “The experience of growing up under totalitarianism has made Yu Maochun one of the most powerful enemies of totalitarianism.”
