[The Epoch Times, December 31, 2023](Reported by Epoch Times reporter Lin Yan) The Chinese Communist Party has always had double standards on anti-terrorism issues, but this time it encountered the “more serious ones” of the Israeli Embassy in China.
The Israeli Embassy in China wrote on social media . To support and use fear for selfish interests, indulge in fear and feed fear, and undermine international and regional security. This approach harms others and does not benefit ourselves.”
The Israeli Embassy in China then questioned: “If this is Beijing’s consistent policy, then when Hamas, a recognized terrorist organization, massacred, killed, raped and kidnapped civilians, Israelis and other countries on October 7 Why does Beijing remain silent when people carry out such terrorist atrocities?”
Mao Ning’s words were in response to a question from a reporter from the Chinese Communist Party media “China Daily” at a regular press conference on December 27. Such questions are prepared in advance, or even questions specified by the authorities.
The question said that foreign media reported that the leader of the “Baloch Nationalist Army” who surrendered to the Pakistani government said that India has been secretly supporting terrorist activities in Balochistan and providing funds to separatist forces in Balochistan. Balkan officials accuse India of supporting and exploiting terrorism. The reporter then asked the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs to comment.
In addition to the above answer, Mao Ning also added, “China advocates that all countries strengthen anti-terrorism cooperation and jointly combat all forms of terrorism.”
The Israeli Embassy’s doubts play into the Chinese Communist Party’s weakness. On the one hand, the CCP advocates anti-terrorism, but on the other hand, it is in the same frame as terrorist organizations. For example: In July 2021, Baradar, the head of the Political Committee of the Afghan Taliban, an internationally recognized terrorist organization, visited China for the first time and was received by Wang Yi, the then Foreign Minister of the Communist Party of China.
After U.S. troops withdrew from Afghanistan in 2021, the Taliban took power. No government has so far recognized the Taliban, and Beijing is the first country to appoint a new ambassador to Taliban-led Afghanistan and has increasingly closer official ties with the Taliban regime.
One netizen described the CCP’s counter-terrorism activities as follows: “Talk with terrorists regarding counter-terrorism, talk regarding sealing off North Korea for development, talk with Russia regarding territorial integrity, and fight a trade war with the United States.”
A 2019 U.S. State Department report stated that the CCP’s anti-terrorism campaign is to suppress separatist or subversive activities it deems, and has nothing to do with the activities themselves. Its definition of “terrorism” is vague and has raised serious human rights concerns. Specifically, the CCP can talk with the Taliban, an internationally recognized terrorist organization, and with Iran, but it cannot talk with ordinary people in China, such as the Uighurs in Xinjiang, anti-extradition protesters in Hong Kong, and mainland human rights activists.
The report also said that in terms of counter-terrorism cooperation, the CCP has participated in a series of multilateral, regional and bilateral forums in an attempt to present itself as a global leader in counter-terrorism; at the same time, the CCP government has used the United Nations international counter-terrorism cooperation platform to actively promote repressive counter-terrorism methods. .
The best criterion for whether a government is a force for good is to look at the opinions of its neighbors and whether it has friends. In the Indo-Pacific region alone, Beijing has conflicts with almost every country (except North Korea), and it is impossible to find a country that has not been protested by the spokesperson of the Chinese Communist Party’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs. For example: China had two border wars with India, launched five missiles into Japan’s economic zone (CEZ), and continued to harass the Philippine Coast Guard.
