Pompeio in Czech “anti Russia” Embassy: be careful to fall into the pit

From August 11, U.S. Secretary of state pompeio embarked on a four-day trip to central and Eastern Europe, visiting Czech Republic, Slovenia, Austria and Poland. The key agenda of this visit is to “encircle, pursue and intercept” China and Russia in the 5g, economic and military fields, and continue to strengthen the influence of the United States in this region. In these two days’ speech, he frequently “fanned the flames”. On August 11, some Czech politicians once again hyped the so-called “Taiwan visiting group” issue. Prague mayor Zdenek hrib announced that he would join the “visiting group”. Last year, it was under his leadership that Prague cancelled its sister city relationship with Shanghai. Naturally, the news of horep’s visit to Taiwan has won pompeio’s appreciation. In response to pompeio’s words and deeds, the Chinese Embassy in the Czech Republic refuted that: those who dig holes for others will fall into them. According to the Czech local media Prague moring on August 12, Prague mayor horep announced in his personal Facebook the day before that he would join the 90 member “Taiwan visiting group” organized by Senate President Milo š vystr chick IL, and go to Taiwan on August 29. This is also the second visit to Taiwan within 18 months since March 2019. Prior to this, westkill announced on June 9 that he would visit Taiwan at the end of August. However, at that time, the Chinese Embassy in the Czech Republic immediately refuted that the visit to Taiwan would be an overt support for “separatist forces and separatist activities”, seriously infringed China’s national sovereignty and territorial integrity, seriously violated the basic norms of international relations and bilateral political commitments, and seriously damaged the premise and political basis of Sino Czech cooperation. On August 12, Zhao Lijian, spokesman of the Chinese foreign ministry, refuted in response to relevant questions: China has always opposed any form of official exchanges between countries that have established diplomatic relations with Taiwan. I would also like to stress here that the rejuvenation of the Chinese nation and the reunification of the two sides of the Taiwan Strait are both historical inevitability. If you move against the trend, you will be doomed to end; if you split the country, you will be doomed to be infamous forever. < p > < p > < p > the timing of horep’s announcement to join the “visiting group” is rather delicate. According to the associated press, pompeio has launched a four-day trip to central and Eastern Europe on August 11, visiting Czech Republic, Slovenia, Austria and Poland. The purpose of his current visit is to promote the “anti Russia” of these countries. Before this visit, the U.S. State Department released the topics discussed by pompeio and other countries. During his visit to Czech Republic, he will discuss nuclear energy cooperation and “how to deal with the threat from China and Russia”; when he visits Slovenia, he will discuss 5g and energy issues; when he visits Austria, he will discuss trade relations and Iran’s nuclear issue; when he visits Poland, he will discuss the issue of garrison. As expected, pompeio once again delivered a speech full of ideological prejudice and cold war thinking on August 12. He repeatedly mentioned the Soviet Union in order to exaggerate the “China threat”. However, the Czech Prime Minister Babis, who attended the meeting, did not seem to buy it. Pompeio delivered a speech in the Czech Senate on the same day, claiming that China posed a “threat” to the western world more than the Soviet Union during the cold war. “What’s happening is not cold war 2.0,” pompeio slurred. “The challenge of resisting the Chinese threat is more than resisting (the Soviet Union). The Chinese side has been integrated into our economy, politics and society, which the Soviet Union has never done before. ” In addition, pompeio also took him to Russia, claiming that Russia had used information warfare and cyber attacks to “weaken” the foundation of “democracy and freedom” in the Czech Republic. He also praised westkill’s decision to visit Taiwan. However, pompeio’s visit to Czech Republic did not receive much praise. After arriving in the Czech Republic on August 11, Pompeo and his wife, Susan, visited a brewery. The two men and a large number of followers hold beer and drink happily. Despite novel coronavirus pneumonia cases in Czech for many consecutive days, the epidemic situation is still grim. However, no one has been wearing masks and ignored social distance. This has also caused netizens’ accusations and worries. According to the Czech media “novinky”, Czech Prime Minister barbish said before pompeio’s visit on the 11th that Czech Republic was not interested in the US garrison. “The Czech side is not interested in the deployment of US forces, we are allies of NATO and that will not change,” he said. It’s not clear where these US troops are going from Germany, but certainly not from us. As I said, in the meeting with pompeio, I was more interested in our trade relations and the business of our company. ” However, babish said in a meeting with pompeio on the 12th: “with all due respect to American investors, I hope to get more investment from China.” In fact, there are also many criticisms in Czechoslovakia for his words and deeds. In an analysis article published in June this year, the US Foreign Policy magazine pointed out that the Taiwan issue seems to be a “diplomatic issue” for the internal politics of the Czech Republic, but in fact it is a “acting battlefield” in the domestic political struggle of the Czech Republic. Currently, Czech President Milo Zeman and his allies support China and strongly oppose the plan to visit Taiwan. But in the eyes of both westkill and the so-called “liberal” opposition, this is an important issue against the current government. On August 12, the Chinese Embassy in the Czech Republic refuted pompeio’s remarks during his visit to the Czech Republic. The article points out: during his visit to the Czech Republic, US Secretary of state pompeio made many wrong remarks on China related issues, which we firmly oppose. In the name of “democracy” and “freedom”, pompeio attacked, discredited and “dumped” China for no reason, and maliciously provoked the relations between other countries and China. His words and deeds were full of ideological prejudice and cold war thinking, which ran counter to the trend of the times. < / P > < p > there is a Czech proverb, “he who digs a hole for others will fall into it.” We advise pompeio to respect historical facts, international law and basic norms of international relations, respect the common interests of the people of China, the United States and the world, stop spreading “political viruses” and false information, stop interfering in China’s internal affairs, and stop undermining the unity and cooperation of the international community.
