Say pressure from Canada’s allies won’t work.
The Chicoms (ChinaCommunists) are launching another rhetorical barrage on Canada.
China foreign ministry spokesman Geng Shuang was referring to claims by PM Trudeau in which Trudeau said he was “confident” Trump had raised the matter of kidnapped Canadians Michael Kovrig and Michael Spavor with China’s dictator Xi Jinping.
“I would like to caution the Canadian side against being too naive,” said Geng.“First, it shouldn’t be so naive as to believe that asking its so-called ally to pressure China will work. China is a country with the rule of law and the judicial authorities handle cases independently. China’s judicial sovereignty brooks no interference.
Added Geng, “Second, it shouldn’t be so naive as to believe that its so-called ally will earnestly pursue a Canadian agenda. They will only pay a lip service, at best. The matter is, after all, between China and Canada.”
China has also placed all the blame on Canada, ignoring the fact that while detained Chinese Citizen Meng Wanzhou is living in the lap of luxury, Canadians Michael Spavor and Michael Kovrig are being kept in horrible conditions, with the lights apparently kept on 24 hours a day.
The Chicoms are playing the old ‘moral-equivalence’ game, where they point to real flaws in Western nations while pretending that those flaws are somehow comparable to their brutal authoritarian Communist State.
Unfortunately, Trudeau is making it easier for China to get away with it, as his ‘post-national state’ agenda defames Canada and seeks to wipe out the nationalism and patriotism necessary for us to stand up for ourselves.
