Ministry of Foreign Affairs: the US side's act of undermining democracy under the banner of "promoting democracy" can only end in failure

2021-12-01

Foreign Ministry spokesman Zhao Lijian said on the 30th that the essence of the so-called "democratic summit" pieced together by the United States is to revive the cold war thinking, provoke separatist opposition and serve its own hegemonic plot. Such acts of undermining democracy under the banner of "promoting democracy" can only end in failure. At the regular press conference on the same day, a reporter asked: kortunov, director general of the International Affairs Committee, a well-known Russian think tank, said in an article on the 28th that the so-called "democratic summit" launched by the United States was "trying to turn the colorful modern world into a world divided by black and white". What is China's comment on this? Zhao Lijian said that recently, many scholars have put forward pertinent criticism and suggestions on American democracy. American Atlantic Council researchers Fred and Jackson said that the United States needs to ask itself what led to the decline of democracy and seriously solve the defects of its own democracy. Abrams, a senior researcher at the US Council on foreign relations, said that the United States spends billions of dollars every year to "promote democracy" around the world, but relevant projects have seriously deformed under the stimulation of profit orientation. The United States must conduct a comprehensive review of "promoting democracy". Scott, a researcher at the Roy Institute in Australia, said that the United States should recognize that its democratic defects have weakened its authority and should remain humble when discussing the Democratic situation in other countries. "No democracy is a panacea. Countries all over the world share a common pursuit of democratic values. Discussions on the practice of democratic values should be colorful and inclusive. Countries with different national conditions and social systems should exchange and learn from each other." Zhao Lijian said that the United States is determined to forcibly export the so-called "democracy" with a sense of superiority, and even interfere in other countries' internal affairs and engage in military aggression, It can only bring turbulence, war and refugees to the countries concerned. "The United States insists on depicting the colorful world with black and white film, monopolizes the definition of democracy with its own standard, ignores the great differences in culture, history and civilization of different countries, and acts as the so-called" judge "of democracy. This in itself is a mockery of democracy and the greatest undemocratic." Zhao Lijian stressed that the United States is not qualified to call itself a "model of democracy". The essence of the so-called "democratic summit" pieced together by the United States to peddle the narrative of "Democracy against authoritarianism" is to revive the cold war thinking, provoke separatist opposition and serve its own hegemonic plot. "The US side's act of undermining democracy under the banner of 'Promoting Democracy' is' risking universal condemnation 'and can only end in failure." (outlook new era)
