孙太一：美国有意把中美关系拖进修昔底德陷阱？
习主席访美才一周，美国却仿佛有意要把中美关系带入“修昔底德陷阱”一样，在经济
和军事上频繁动作。美国当地时间10月5日上午，在经过5天的昼夜谈判后，包括美国、
日本等12国在内的涵盖世界40% GDP的跨太平洋战略经济伙伴关系协议（Trans-Pacific
Partnership, TPP）达成，而TPP一直被认为是美国为了主导亚太地区规则制定权并把
中国排除在外的重要举动。与此同时，美国国防部高官也在近日透露奥巴马正在考虑将
美国的军舰开入中国南海正在建造、加固的岛礁12海里以内，挑战中国对岛屿以及领海
的主权申明。而习主席访美前后，美军的飞机也频繁在中国边境执行任务，几次险些与
试图拦截、阻挡的中国战机发生碰撞。这一系列事态的发展让我们不得不重新审视中美
关系的走向以及修昔底德陷阱的挑战。
