That fact that China is the one saying it has no impact on the validity of the argument.
They're not saying it is invalid, they are wondering how long it will take for China to immediately flip on this once it's about their own interests, because they constantly talk out of both sides of their mouth on this sort of thing.
So does the US. They are both imperialist nations with opposing interests. It's not worth pointing out unless you are acknowledging how they both do it.
Each is in the best position to lay out valid criticisms of the other. You just have to use media literacy to be able to discern valid points from propaganda.
No shit, they were discussing the possible geopolitical implications, not saying China is uniquely duplicitous, please use your media literacy to not insert words into people's mouths
You alright?
