Chinanews.com, Beijing, November 29 (Reporter Xing Chong) Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Wang Wenbin said at a regular press conference on the 29th that the United States hosted the "Democracy Summit" in response to an inquiry that the United States hosted the "Democracy Summit" as a resurrection of the Cold War mentality. The dangerous actions of the People’s Republic of China have aroused the high vigilance of the international community.

  A reporter asked a question. On the 25th, Hungarian Foreign Minister Sijaldo criticized the United States for hosting the "Democracy Summit", saying that the "Summit" had the characteristics of domestic politics in the United States.

Chinese Ambassador to the United States Qin Gang and Russian Ambassador to the United States Antonov also recently jointly wrote an article, pointing out that the United States decides who is a "democracy" and who is not. It is a typical Cold War mentality that will incite ideological opposition and contradictions in the world. Create new divisions.

What is the spokesperson's comment on this?

  Wang Wenbin said that for a period of time, international criticisms of the so-called "democracy summit" hosted by the United States have risen from wave to wave, which shows that the international community has generally questioned and opposed this move by the United States.

  Wang Wenbin asked three questions about this.

First, is there morality and legitimacy for the United States to host the "Democracy Summit"?

Wang Wenbin said that the United States' own democratic situation is riddled with blemishes.

According to relevant polls, 44% of people worldwide believe that the United States is the greatest threat to global democracy, and 81% of Americans believe that American democracy faces serious domestic threats.

The United States is a democratic credit overdrafter, and "American democracy" has long gone bankrupt.

The United States also continues to interfere in the internal affairs of other countries under the banner of democracy, violate the sovereignty of other countries, and violate the basic principles of international law and the basic norms of international relations.

The holding of the "Democracy Summit" in the United States is neither reasonable nor legal. It is just a tactic used to "treat internal diseases and externally" to transfer problems and contradictions within the United States to the outside world.

  Second, is the United States holding a "democracy summit" for democracy or anti-democracy?

Wang Wenbin said that whether a country is democratic or not should be judged by the people of the country in the final analysis, rather than by a foreign country to make any comments and make unreasonable comments.

The standard for measuring democracy should be whether it meets the needs of the people of the country, and whether the people of the country have enough sense of participation, satisfaction, and gain.

The United States judges which countries are democratic and which countries are undemocratic according to its own likes and dislikes. It uses the American yardstick to measure the quality of each country's democracy. This is to "privatize" democracy and betray the spirit of democracy. Anti-democratic behavior.

  Third, is the United States holding a "democracy summit" a true democracy or a pseudo-democracy?

Wang Wenbin said that democracy is the common value of all mankind. Countries should not only promote democracy at home, but also support the democratization and rule of law in international relations, and maintain an international system with the United Nations as the core and an international order based on international law.

Under the banner of democracy, the United States divides camps and creates divisions in the world. It is a drunkard's intention. It is trying to instrument and weaponize democracy to advance its own geostrategy. It is the reality of advancing hegemony under the cloak of democracy.

  Wang Wenbin emphasized that this year marks the 30th anniversary of the end of the Cold War. The holding of the "Democracy Summit" in the United States is a dangerous act to revive the Cold War mentality and arouses the high vigilance of the international community.

"We call on people of insight from all walks of life to jointly resist anti-democratic and pseudo-democratic practices, jointly maintain international unity and cooperation, and jointly promote world peace and development." (End)
