[Epoch Times, February 26, 2022](The Epoch Times reporter Li Xinan interviewed and reported) Since the start of the war between Russia and Ukraine, the CCP has claimed to respect sovereignty and territorial integrity on the surface, but it has not condemned or sanctioned Russia’s war of aggression. The media blocked anti-war speech. Expert analysis believes that the CCP uses the media as a battlefield and secretly supports Russia in launching a war.
At 2:00 a.m. on February 26, the website of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Communist Party of China published China’s “five-point position” on the current Ukraine issue. According to the website, on February 25, Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi had a phone call with British Foreign Secretary Truss, EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Borrell, and French Presidential Adviser Bona. Regarding the situation in Ukraine, Wang Yi expounded on China’s attitude towards Ukraine. The basic position of the issue, the main five points include:
China “stands for respecting and safeguarding the sovereignty and territorial integrity of all countries”; “Russia’s legitimate security demands should be taken seriously and properly resolved”; “it is imperative that all parties exercise necessary restraint”; “Russia and Ukraine are welcome to hold direct dialogue and negotiation as soon as possible.” “; “Do not agree with Security Council resolutions that frequently invoke Chapter VII, which authorizes use of force and sanctions.”
The Epoch Times columnist Wang He analyzed that, despite the pressure of diplomacy and public opinion, the CCP continued to express its position. However, its claims of respecting sovereignty and territorial integrity are all false and false, and the mutual use of “strategic cooperation” with Russia is true.
He said, “In this Russian-Ukrainian war, should Ukraine’s sovereignty be respected? The CCP once gave him a security guarantee when Ukraine gave up its nuclear weapons in 1994. Now Ukraine’s sovereignty has been seriously damaged by Russia’s attack. What did the CCP do at this time?
“Before the invasion, China and Russia signed a joint statement, providing Russia with hundreds of billions of large orders and huge amounts of economic support; when the two sides started fighting, and the world was sanctioning Russia, the CCP relaxed trade restrictions on Russia, All-round import of Russian wheat. ItThe security guarantees for Ukraine are completely false,Aren’t China and Russia on the same front?”
In an interview with The Epoch Times, U.S.-based scholar and writer Wu Zuolai said that the CCP’s foreign ministry spokesman said that the relationship between China and Russia “is not an alliance, it is better than an alliance”, which means that he is closer than an alliance, which means that in this In the war of aggression against Ukraine, the CCP supported Russia or secretly supported it.
“Of course it does not dare to blatantly violate the United Nations Charter on the territorial integrity of sovereign states, so it can only look for other reasons, saying that Western countries have not treated Russia well, or that Western countries have allowed Ukraine to join NATO. Threats to Russian territory. This is completely unfounded.
“Because Ukraine’s membership in NATO is a sovereign act of a sovereign country, his membership in NATO does not mean that NATO invades Russia, because NATO has not invaded any sovereign country, it is protecting member states from aggression, so Russia’s this Such claims have no historical and realistic basis.”
Wu Zuolai believes that the CCP’s admission of such an excuse is actually helping Russia to shirk its responsibility, because it does not dare to condemn Russia; Russia is fighting a pan-Western force, which is very beneficial to the CCP, and in a sense eases the CCP’s current situation. Many crises, including economic crises, epidemic crises, etc.
CCP’s false propaganda engages in media war
Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has entered its third day, and Russian troops have faced stubborn resistance. Ukraine’s Deputy Prime Minister Iryna Vereshchuk called on the International Red Cross to help return the bodies of Russian soldiers to Russia.
Russia and Ukraine are at war. At the same time, the CCP also launched a media war and public opinion war in support of Russia on the Internet. Taking the first day of the war as an example, the Chinese media propaganda is that Russia is moving straight in, destroying the Ukrainian Air Force and Civil Guard headquarters. Netizens bluntly said, “When you wake up, Ukraine is gone!”
According to a press release by the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense, the Russian army lost more than 30 tanks, up to 130 armored vehicles, 7 aircraft and 6 helicopters.
International intelligence reports show that Ukrainian resistance is far more tenacious than expected, and Russia has failed to deliver on their first day of battle plans.
Netizens left a message saying, “Putin thinks the West is weak, and he may be right. But the problem is that Ukrainians are too tough!”
The CCP also touted Putin’s goal to “demilitarize and de-Nazify” Ukraine and “dissolve Ukraine’s recent military strength that has grown significantly due to foreign aggressive actions and other reasons.” Charges the Ukrainian government with “various crimes”. The Chinese, who have blocked the news, believe that Russia’s attack on Ukraine is “just”.
CCTV News even forwarded fake news from Russia, saying that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky had left Kyiv on the 25th local time, and all his appeals from the Ukrainian capital were filmed in advance.
But the reality is that Ukrainian President Ze has always refused to leave Kyiv, and personally sent a video to clarify. Netizens expressed admiration for Zelensky, “Two days after the war between Russia and Ukraine, a comedian became a great leader; and the leaders of those Western countries became comedians.”
The CCP fabricated false public opinion to mislead public opinion
After Putin announced a military operation against Ukraine, there were anti-war cries around the world. At least 1,849 people have been detained in anti-war protests in more than 60 Russian cities after Ukraine was invaded, according to an NGO.
The war brought many casualties. Some Russians said they were ashamed of their country, while others posted signs that read, “The war with Ukraine is a disgrace to Russia.” “I’m Russian and I’m sorry.”
In stark contrast to this, many Chinese people gave Putin a thumbs up under the comments on Weibo, and they applauded that Ukraine deserved a slap in the face. Some people have even coveted post-war Ukrainian beauties, saying “one Ukrainian beauty per person”.
Netizens said, “There is a difference between human and inhuman.” “Isn’t it the same on 9.11?” “There are not a few Chinese who oppose the war, but they can’t speak up!” It was deleted in seconds. “It’s not that all Chinese people have lost their conscience, it’s just that the discourse power of Chinese public opinion is controlled by the communists. “The robbery of the CCP only allows the media to report pro-Russian news. “
A mainland netizen told reporters that since the start of the war between Russia and Ukraine, there have been many clapping and applause inside the wall, and there are also those who oppose the war. He thinks this is aggression, committing a heinous crime in the world. “Putin has dragged China into dire straits for nearly 20 years, and two barrels of sky-high oil are more serious than artillery fire.”
Wu Zuolai analyzed that, on the one hand, after so many years of brainwashing and education by the CCP, as long as someone has the strength to dare to conflict with the West, no matter how evil it is, Little Pink will rejoice and applaud, like a chicken blood; on the other hand, Little Pink Things can be surfaced, and many of them may be developing posts in an organized manner.
For example, he said, the webmaster of the Beijing News published an internal notice. On February 22, a Weibo account of Shi Mian, an international channel under the CCP media “Beijing News”, posted a suspected instruction from a superior on how to deal with Ukraine-related news, “do not send any information that is not good for Russia and pro-Western”. Comments are subject to ‘selected control’, first to open selects, and then to release suitable comments…”
“It’s just that in the past few days, a lot of news about Ukraine has to be placed in an important position, and what should be the requirements for the number of posts, which proves that they have made great efforts in public opinion control and public opinion release. The battlefield is being used. In fact, the amount of Little Pink is not very large, and it can not be deleted, which makes it seem that many people in China are supporting Russian aggression, and the Chinese seem to have no sense of justice.” He said.
Wang He believes that these remarks are in harmony with the CCP’s official policy. The CCP has not said that Russia is invading, and criticized the unilateral sanctions of the West. Its public opinion should echo this, so these things happened. The CCP’s overall strategy and public opinion are in harmony with each other. The CCP fabricated such fake public opinion to mislead public opinion.
