NATO alliance is trying everything to force Beijing to stop supporting Moscow, but it answered others, and a military alliance official uttered words that equate to a verbal tussle. These comments were mentioned during an international conference about the Arctic in Iceland.
China Refuses To Condemn Russia
This verbal exchange happened between Admiral Rob Bauer, chair of the alliance's Military Committee, and He Rulong, China's ambassador to Iceland, reported Bloomberg.
A speech by Bauer on how NATO must lead in the Arctic has mentioned at the Annual Artic Assembly began the exchange.
The Dutch officer remarked that China refuses to acknowledge the rules-based international order that hegemon Washington endorses. Hearing this, the Chinese envoy stood up and challenged the statement.
The Chinese representative, Rulong, responded that the statement was very dismissive, promptly pushing back against the hegemonic remarks of the military bloc representative, noted the Head Topics.
Washington To Push Its Agenda
A retort to the Military bloc official was promptly returned. Bauer opened his statement that the west and its definition of freedom and all the borders of the world operate in the definition of the US, nothing else applies dissent does not count. The audience agreed, followed by his assertion that China must follow suit in condemning Russia.
The Chinese replied that the Ukraine crisis has a root cause and was mocked by laughter in the crowd when China would prefer peace.
Beijing has rebuffed NATO, and the US demands to criticize President Vladimir Putin's war in Ukraine. Beijing stated this week that it was genuinely worried about Moscow's latest rocket attacks on civilian centers.
The United Nations General Assembly denounced Russia's territorial expansion of parts of eastern Ukraine in a protest vote last Wednesday, casting a vote 143-5, with 35 nations, along with India and China, staying away from endorsing the US-backed resolution.
The Arctic Circle Assembly is an annual gathering of Arctic government entities, indigenous organizations, and intellectuals. This is distinct from the Arctic Council, an eight-country intergovernmental comprised of the US and its current chair Russia. The meetings have now been stopped ever since the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
China's special envoy for Arctic matters told the gathering that his state wouldn't endorse excluding Russia, which is chairing the cluster until 2023, to penalize it for the conflict in Ukraine as well as hand the position to Norway.
He chided those seeking to remove Russia from the council and said those behind such plots to give Norway the seat were absurd, suggesting a greater force driving the process as all efforts to discredit Moscow are made.
Xi Jinping To Make Chinese Military the Most Powerful
The arctic conference backdrop highlights concerns in that zone, and Xi has pledged to advance the Chinese military by 2027, per RT.
President Xi Jinping vowed that the Chinese armed services would be carried to "world-class standards" by 2027 when it highlights its 100th birthday.
He claimed in his opening statement at the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party on Sunday.
In the next five years, the People's Liberation Army (PLA) will ratchet up troop instruction and improve combat readiness, and he told the audience there at the Great Hall of the People in Beijing.
The verbal tussle between representatives of NATO to press Beijing reveals the depths of desperation Washington feels over its support for Russia and the ghost of Kabul.
