China’s disinterest in Red Sea policing role underscores Beijing’s reluctance to back its rhetoric on Middle East peace with substantive action.
The Chinese government appears to be brushing off Secretary of State Antony Blinken’s call for Beijing to assist an international coalition in protecting commercial shipping in the Red Sea from Yemen’s Iran-backed Houthi militias.
Beijing signaled that it has no interest in joining the Pentagon’s Operation Prosperity Guardian , a multinational force including Canada, the United Kingdom and Bahrain, in providing security for cargo ships under threat of Houthi attack.
“We believe relevant parties, especially major countries with influence, need to play a constructive and responsible role in keeping the shipping lanes safe in the Red Sea,” Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Wang Wenbin said on Thursday in an indirect reference to U.S. military and diplomatic heft in the region.
Based Chinese.
Fuck israel and any country aiding them and their ZioNazi genocide.
Yeah cause the Chinese government doesn’t have a history of eliminating ethnic groups in labor camps, they’re SO morally superior.
When whataboutism is the only resort left.
The Chinese concentration camps are bad though wish they’d stop that shit.
It’s not even close to the only resort, I’m just choosing to specifically target your claim that they’re based just because they’ve always backed Iran and the radical Arab factions in the middle east and continue to do so as expected.
Their actions in this matter are however on a massive moral high ground over the west which are now doing actual Nazi style genocide shit.
Sure China only doesn’t interfere because it aligns with their political interests. But they’re still not doing genocide. And the Houthis blocking global shipping lanes costs China money too.
That the west wants to throw away their entire global reputation to create some biblical world ending is their own fault.
Sure, bro.
