Original title: Own democracy is collapsing, inviting “Hong Kong independence” is like a farce, and the United States is constantly being mocked for the “democracy summit”

  [环球时报记者 王娟  董铭  樊巍 余希 邢晓婧 曹思琦 柳直]Your house is on fire, and you want to be the “firefighter” of the world? The so-called “democracy summit” initiated by US President Biden ushered in the second day on the 10th. However, the doubts about this meeting in the United States and the international community have increased unabated. The general evaluation of the meeting. There is a view that the so-called “democracy summit” held by the United States under the banner of democracy is to draw other countries to unite against China. Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Wang Wenbin said on the 10th that democracy is the common value of all mankind, not a tool to advance geostrategy. In order to maintain its hegemony, the United States uses democratic public tools for private use, incites division and confrontation under the banner of democracy, and undermines the international system with the United Nations at its core and the international order based on international law. This is an outright anti-democratic act.

  “Slapstick Summit”

The “Democracy Summit” on the 10th began at 6 a.m. Eastern Time. The UN Secretary-General Guterres delivered a speech, and then Hong Kong fugitive Luo Guancong came to power. Luo Guancong is the former chairman of the “Hong Kong Independence” organization “Hong Kong All Wills”. The Chief Secretary for Administration of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government Li Jiachao said that it was a farce for Luo Guancong to be invited by the US “Democracy Summit”. At 9:30, the participants of the meeting had a one-hour panel discussion on the topic of “opposing digital authoritarianism and affirming democratic values.” At 1:30 pm, Biden will deliver a speech on election fairness, opposition to foreign interference in the election, and support for independent media.

This meeting is not only a stage for Biden to show off “American democracy” in front of other countries, but also a place for him to peddle his domestic political agenda. According to political news network and other US media reports, when speaking at the so-called “Democracy Summit” on Thursday, both Biden and his deputy Harris called on Congress to pass the voting rights bill. The right to vote is currently the “front” of the fierce struggle between the two parties in the United States.

  “American democracy is falling apart”

Although Americans talked loudly at the so-called “democracy summit,” the media expressed doubts about whether the United States is qualified to preach on democracy. “While Biden is hosting the global’democracy summit’, our own democracy is falling apart,” said Albright, co-founder of the American voting rights organization “Black Voters Important”, according to the New York Times. When it catches fire, the United States cannot be the “firefighter” of the world. According to the annual Global Freedom Index of Freedom House, a non-partisan organization in the United States, the United States ranks 50th in the world in terms of freedom. Last month, the Swedish think tank “International Institute for Democracy and Electoral Assistance” included the United States on the “list of regressive democracies” for the first time. According to the Indian Tribune, surveys show that in the past ten years, the United States’ democracy score has fallen the most among all countries.

“USA Today” quoted experts and activists as saying that at the beginning of this year, the American mob captured the Capitol in an attempt to prevent the government from certifying the results of last year’s election, which is a vivid portrayal of the flaws in American democracy. Some activists urged Biden to pay more attention to domestic issues before turning his attention abroad, including the general public’s distrust of leaders and government agencies, and the ever-increasing political polarization that led to the paralysis of Congress. When Biden held a high-profile “democracy summit,” protesters gathered in Arizona, California and other states to hold demonstrations. One of the demonstrations in New York State took place in front of the United Nations headquarters, which was to highlight the hypocrisy of American democratic rhetoric. In addition, on the closing day of the “Democracy Summit”, the British court ruled that the founder of “Wiki Reveal” Assange was allowed to be extradited to the United States for trial. Russian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Zakharova said that the British court’s decision within the framework of political cases against journalists and public figures is shameful. The West appropriately “celebrated” World Human Rights Day and the closing of the “Democracy Summit”.

The Lebanese “Daily” stated that the country most likely to face the “downfall” of democracy is the United States itself. The US leaders have been advocating the “democratic” system they have established in Afghanistan and Iraq, but if the American people are suffering from various undemocratic treatments, then the so-called “ideal democracy” in Afghanistan and Iraq can also be imagined. The senior editor of Maldives News Network Shakiel said in an article that Biden claimed that every democratic country needs time to develop its own democracy, but the United States says one thing and does another. It took several hundred years for Western countries to develop their democratic systems today. However, these countries now require other countries to abandon their own culture, history, and social identity and immediately accept the Western definition of democracy, otherwise they will be sanctioned.

India’s “the Wire” news network stated that the United States held the so-called “democracy summit” to interfere in the internal affairs of other countries.

Shakir believes that instead of inviting China and Russia, the United States invites the DPP authorities in Taiwan to participate in the so-called “democratic summit,” which is completely provocative. Ma Xiaoguang, a spokesperson for the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council, said on the 10th that the so-called “democracy summit” held by the United States is actually a political manipulation to safeguard its own interests and hegemony. The DPP authorities have launched a “green terror” in Taiwan, which has aroused strong dissatisfaction among the general public. The performance of the DPP authorities in sending people to participate in the so-called “democracy summit” can only allow more and more people to see through the nature of the DPP authorities’ false “democracy” and genuine “independence”. He emphasized that China firmly opposes any form of official exchanges between the United States and the Taiwan region of China, and urges the United States to abide by the one-China principle and the three Sino-US joint communiqués. Any attempt by the DPP authorities to “rely on the United States for independence” is doomed to failure.
