Before today's session of the conference of NATO foreign ministers in Bucharest, Asselborn said that China interprets human rights in its own way.
He considered it good that U.S. President Joe Biden and German Chancellor Olaf Scholz spoke with Chinese President Xi Jinping.
"We are on the same page when it comes to Russian threats with nuclear weapons. I believe that China also wants this war against Ukraine to end and that a nuclear disaster does not occur," Asselborn explained.
He pointed out that there are many parts in our mobile phones and cars that come from China and that it is necessary to take care not to create a new addiction. He criticized the use of force against protest participants in China, stressing that in the 21st century, citizens cannot "put themselves in one frame and tell them that there is only one philosophy, and that of the state."
"People aspire to freedom, and the Chinese will have to realize that", Asselborn emphasized. He said that the images coming from Iran and now from China are not positive images in the 21st century.
Peter S. & Bob,
Don’t forget to include Serbia on your list. Vucic and Dacic are simply failed protégés of Milosevic. They do not yet have the power of Putin, Xi, Assad, etc. However, they are striving to achieve the power of Putin and the rest of the other dictators. As for OSMANIS aka sj, he is just another troll, but not a very successful one. Ignore him and he will go away.

I feel sorry for real people who suffer and are suppressed by shameful overly power-oriented government systems.
China, North Korea, Iran, Russia, Eritrea, Syria, Myanmar, Venezuela spring to mind but there are also many more.

Hey Bob, the west is just as bad if not worse.
I lived through the longest, harshest lockdowns and curfews here in Melbourne. I know exactly how much a dictator our government was and still is.
Please do yourself a favour and watch this clip all the way then tell me how nice western governments are.
Bob.......
You are another who listens to just CNN. And CNN is the mouthpiece of Washington.
China for the past 20/25 years has made great strides. As many as 600 million people have been brought into the middle class. Their economy is excellent and outstripping America and the EU. And all this was done with hard work and without invading other nations and stealing resources. Amazing eh...? You and the USA dont like China simply because they are outperforming you. Fact.
As for Russia, do you know Putin asked for Russia to join the EU and was told to get lost. Fact. Putin also asked to join forces with nato. Again he was told to get lost. Fact. By the way, Putins approval rating is at over 80%. Didnt know that Bob...?? Yes its true.
As for Venezuela, the only reason they have had it tough is because they wont let US oil and energy gians in to exploit thdm. So the US has had sanctions on Venezuela for many years. The US is a bully and manipulator. But at last Russia stood up to them. And so will China. Great to see America, the worlds bully, retreat and meet its match.
Go educate yourself Bob.
