China Warns World Leaders: Don't Talk About the Hong Kong Protests
Does the Streisand effect work with politicians?<p>China already would censor anything related to it, so isn&#x27;t this simply China trying to see who will fall in line?<p>Re: Tiananmen Square Massacre<p>Secretary of State Mike Pompeo issued a statement commemorating the 30th anniversary of the Tiananmen Square massacre - <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.newsweek.com&#x2F;tiananmen-square-massacre-china-says-us-violating-international-law-honoring-30th-anniversary-1442014" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.newsweek.com&#x2F;tiananmen-square-massacre-china-say...</a><p>China&#x27;s response - <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.china-embassy.org&#x2F;eng&#x2F;zmgxss&#x2F;t1669295.htm" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.china-embassy.org&#x2F;eng&#x2F;zmgxss&#x2F;t1669295.htm</a> -<p>&quot;On June 3, 2019, the US side issued a statement on China in the name of Secretary of State Mike Pompeo out of prejudice and arrogance. Under the pretext of human rights, the statement grossly intervenes in China&#x27;s internal affairs, attacks its system, and smears its domestic and foreign policies. This is an affront to the Chinese people and a serious violation of international law and basic norms governing international relations. The Chinese side expresses its strong dissatisfaction and firm opposition to it.<p>The Chinese government and people reached the verdict on the political incident of the late 1980s long ago. Over the past four decades of reform and opening-up, China has enjoyed rapid economic and social development, continuous progress in democracy and the rule of law, flourishing culture and significantly improved standards of living. China&#x27;s human rights are in the best period ever. Socialism with Chinese characteristics, a choice of history and the people, has been proved a right path in line with China&#x27;s national conditions and supported by the whole population. China is firmly committed to the path of peaceful development and to the development of human rights in China and the whole world, and has made significant contribution to the international human rights governance. This is a fact that is recognized by all unbiased people.<p>The Chinese people have the best say on China. Their pursuit of a better life cannot be stopped by any force. Whoever attempt to patronize and bully the Chinese people in any name, or preach a &quot;clash of civilizations&quot; to resist the trend of times will never succeed. They will only end up in the ash heap of history.&quot;<p>Talk about our past and we&#x27;ll leave you in an ash heap? Sounds like they didn&#x27;t learn anything in whatever &quot;verdict&quot; the government and people supposedly came to.
