Xinhua News Agency, Beijing, September 24Title: The spread of the “political virus” tarnishes the UN platform
Xinhua News Agency reporter Wu Liming
The General Assembly of the United Nations is a solemn forum. On the 22nd, the US leader made unsubstantiated accusations about handling the new corona epidemic in the general debate speech of the 75th UN General Assembly on the 22nd, rampant spreading the “political virus.” This kind of hysterical behavior that takes every opportunity to smear China has abused and tarnished the UN platform, making the world laugh.
The spread of the anti-China “political virus” through the epidemic is an old-fashioned way of some American politicians. Since the outbreak of the new corona epidemic, some American politicians have spoken frequently about the “Chinese virus”, politicizing the epidemic over and over again, inventing the “Chinese origin theory”, the “Chinese responsibility theory. “and” China’s compensation theory. ” These absurd comments have been widely condemned by the international community. Many of the leading international academic journals in The Lancet to Nature have repeatedly voiced their strong opposition to the politicization of the epidemic, but these politicians never reflect on themselves.
The spread of an anti-China “political virus” through the epidemic is one of the United States’ “sweep the pot” tactics to cover up its messy performance in fighting the epidemic. Washington does not analyze its inability to fight the epidemic to save lives, but instead tries to divert its attention by discrediting China. America pretends to be “smart” about this, but does not know that it cannot fool the people of the world. Even America’s western allies acknowledge that American politicians frequently talk about China and create rumors just to cover up their own faults and “convey the anger of the Americans to China.” Many international media, including Britain’s “Financial Times,” harshly pointed out that American politicians have spared no effort to demonize China time and again, “full of political calculations.” Agence France-Presse said that the US leader’s speech at the United Nations was an attempt to hide widespread criticism of his ineffectiveness in fighting the epidemic by accusing China.
The so-called “China responsibility theory” spread by US leaders is simply untenable. Facts are the best “rumor mill”. After the outbreak, China notified WHO of the epidemic as soon as possible, shared the genetic sequence of the new coronavirus with other countries, and cooperated with the international community in preventing and controlling the epidemic as soon as possible. With an open, transparent and responsible attitude, China seriously carried out its responsibilities and obligations under the International Health Regulations and adopted the most comprehensive, strict and exhaustive prevention and control measures to slow the spread of the epidemic to dozens of countries. Send a team of medical experts. All of these have been highly affirmed by the international community and can stand the test of time and history.
Evil does not suppress righteousness, politicizing the epidemic is unpopular, and the spread of a “political virus” will not stop the spread of the new coronavirus in the United States. As the population’s understanding of the epidemic deepens, the international community has reached a consensus: the virus is the common enemy of humanity and solidarity and cooperation are the powerful weapons to defeat the epidemic. The Secretary General of the United Nations, Guterres, recently stated that people from all countries are demanding that international cooperation be strengthened and unite to combat the new corona epidemic. Therefore, the conspiracy of a small number of American politicians to use the epidemic to incite the opposition for political gain will never be successful. The higher they jump, the harder they fall.
