In addition to the coverage of president Xi Jinping's visit to Moscow, 1 of the leading topics of publications on the Chinese portal “Global Times” is recalling events 20 years ago erstwhile the Americans began aggression on Iraq.
On 20 March, on this occasion was published, among others, Article by Yang Shenga and Zhang ChangyueThe Iraq War 20 years later: a hegemony that threatens planet peace should be stopped; American decision-makers should be held accountable (Iraq War 20 years on: hegemony that threeing planet peace should be contained; US decision-makers should be hell acknowledged).
‘The Iraq War, which began on March 20, 2003, erstwhile the United States and their allies launched an invasion of the sovereign state in the mediate East based on false intelligence regarding the ‘weapon of mass destruction’, brought devastating and irreversible disasters to the region and caused many side harm worldwide. In fresh days, many U.S. and Western mainstream media have published articles on the war, but they have not indicated the underlying reason why specified a tragedy could have happened, nor have they criticised the U.S. hegemony, which, 20 years after the Iraq War, inactive poses a threat to planet peace".
citing the names of analysts, the authors of the article state that ‘so-called democracy or Control and balance (checks and balance) the United States political strategy cannot halt Washington from taking
reckless decisions
based on fraud, lies or manipulation of public opinion, which brought devastating disasters to countries specified as Iraq, Libya, Syria and Afghanistan, while the military-industrial complex and any high-ranking American politicians, including any erstwhile presidents, benefited from wars. Analysts have stated that in fresh decades invasions, interventions and substitute wars conducted by the West have led to chaos, death and poverty, which together created susceptible ground for terrorism. This besides proves that the Washington Greater mediate East Initiative to westernize the region has besides failed completely. Even more worrying to the global community is that although wars launched by the United States have caused a large (frequent) and endless chaos in the mediate East and elsewhere in the planet and have seriously violated the right to last and make the local population, it seems that American leaders have never been worried about being prosecuted for the wars they started abroad. In fact, the United States has never accepted the jurisdiction of the global Criminal Court over its citizens. United States decision-makers behind these wars, according to Algerian ‘Echorouk El Yawmi’ and Iraqi paper ‘Azzaman’, should be held liable for the actual humanitarian disasters and war crimes they caused in Iraq and should pay or compensate for the tremendous losses they caused during the war and business of Iraq’..
However, let us add that the jurisdiction of the ICC over its citizens has never been recognised by the People's Republic of China, and yet not by the Russian Federation.
Returning to the article in “Global Times”: "Some American media and politicians have tried to argue that the United States Freed the Iraqis from a bad dictatorship and brought affirmative developments in Iraq despite any shameful events specified as the torture of Abu Ghraib and the abuse of prisoners and the killing of civilians during American military operations. But from the position of the Iraqis we heard completely different stories.”. And he cites 2 accounts:
– Waleed Khaled Mfatan, Iraqi engineer, said “Global Times” that American forces in his country are ‘tyranns, a Whoever bullys the country cannot establish peace”;
– Haider Qasim Al-Tamimi, Head of Bayt Al-Hikma Historical investigation Institute, think tank in Iraq, said “Global Times” that
The war was well planned
and based on lies and false evidence and served the political and strategical interests of the United States, but yet brought disaster on the Iraqis. ‘More than 200,000 civilians have been killed, tens of millions of people have been displaced, and economical losses are uncountable". The harm caused by the war continues, and the United States not only destroyed a country that was erstwhile wealthy and beautiful, but besides broke the balance of power in the mediate East. This profoundly changed the geopolitical scenery of the region and caused endless chaos and uncertainty, said Al-Tamimi.
Returning to expert positions, the Chinese portal states: "The war shook Iraq's politics, economy and society, and chaos created a hatchery of terrorism, so the threat of terrorism increased rapidly after the war. Terrorist groups, specified as ISIS, were formed 1 by one, which proves that the alleged global war on terrorism launched by the US, which at the same time was an excuse for US intervention in the region, was besides unsuccessful. The U.S. did not learn from past lessons. An example is the Ukrainian crisis. NATO's unbridled expansion sparked Russia's sharp reaction and led to the outbreak of armed conflict, which one more time showed that US global policy is very problematic" said Iraqi expert.
Chinese analysts say Iraq is not the only victim of American hegemony. Many countries in the mediate East, Latin America, Africa, Europe and Asia feel the same pain. These countries have been destroyed to varying degrees, and the safety and peace situation in their regions has not improved, and even worsened after US intervention.
Another consequence of the Iraqi War points to Zhu Weilie, manager of the Institute of mediate east Studies at Shanghai global Studies University, according to which the Iraq war was the beginning of the collapse of the soft power of the US. "Global trust in the US fell rapidly after Iraq War" said Zhu. The U.S. did not supply any convincing evidence to support its reasons for starting the war (pretexts for launching the war), and himself
The excuse was a lie.
After the war, the United States did not guarantee better management and improvement of the region, but everything worsened, Zhu noted.
When more members of the global community realize that the United States is unreliable and unreliable and sees the danger of U.S. hegemony, they will consider how to deal with hegemony and better defend each another from U.S. interventions, far-reaching jurisdictions and sanctions – provided for by experts who are referred to as "Global Times". Last diplomatic triumph to resume diplomatic relations between Saudi Arabia and Iran with mediation and support China is simply a affirmative signal showing that the major powers in the mediate East have realised the importance of independent decision-making and joint search for a way to peaceful coexistence and cooperation in the future, in another words, to jump out of the trap of the “shock of civilization” set by the US, note analysts.
More importantly, hard force (hard power) The US is decreasing as it does not have the strength to launch another invasion of the country the size of Iraq, and China with expanding influence and force has brought more energy towards global justice, causing more and more developing countries to have the courage to search their own ways of improvement and security, say experts.
“Global Times” recalls the opinion of 1 of the most frequently cited Chinese researchers of global relations, prof. Li Haitongaccording to which ‘by
stop U.S. hegemony,
It is essential that all nations in the planet respect the authority of the UN, preventing Washington from legitimising its unilateral military action against another countries. But that is not enough, we have much more things to do”.
According to political explanation Carla Schmitt, after being painted in sufficiently negative colors of the enemy – the United States of America, “Global Times” presents their affirmative opposite, or own state. He quotes Zhu Weillie for this purpose: "Compared to the United States that export war and chaos, China is now more actively providing public goods to contribute to global peace and development, specified as the Belt and way Initiative, Global improvement Initiatives, the Global safety Initiative and the Global Civilization Initiative. These initiatives are not only words but besides effective actions".
Although with any distance it is appropriate to treat specified a dichotomous image in which political opposites are included in highly moralistic categories, however, Chinese allegations against the United States have a strong support in reality.
"Global Times" exposes not only the aggressive nature of American abroad policy, but besides the U.S. political system. Liu Xin and Xu Yelu published ArticleChina publishes a study that removes the facade of American democracy (China releases study that removes facade of American democracy). On the front of the article is the thesis that “The increasing discontent with the hegemony of the United States is simply a decisive rejection of their practice before
Summit for Democracy".
On the day of the 20th anniversary of the invasion of Iraq under the leadership of the United States, the Chinese abroad Ministry published a study that further reveals the collapse of American democracy and the chaos that America brought into the planet under its cover.
Analysts called the report, along with the increasing dissatisfaction of developing countries from the United States hegemony, “a slap in the face of the US” and believe it helps to remove the facade of American democracy, especially erstwhile Biden's administration so eagerly advertises the communicative of “democracy versus authoritarianism” for the second Summit for Democracy to take place on 29 and 30 March.
Report entitled The State of Democracy in the United States: 2022 It consists of 4 parts, and by gathering a multitude of facts, media comments and expert opinions it presents a full and real image of American democracy over the course of the year – not only showing American democracy in chaos in the country, but besides presenting the havoc and disaster that the United States has brought, selling and imposing its democracy around the world. After being president of the United States by Joe Bidena, it continued in its attempts to reconstruct the US's “leadership” in democracy and increased its efforts to usage democracy as a weapon to
the suppression of fresh emerging economies,
Especially China. "Monday study is simply a Chinese countermeasure against the expanding political war of the United States" – said in an interview with “Global Times” Lü Xiang, a investigator at the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences.
From 9 to 10 December 2021 Biden organised a virtual summit for democracy to "renew democracy in the country and face autocracy abroad"What happened to criticism in the country and abroad. On 29-30 March, the United States is holding a second summit for democracy along with respective another countries. This event has been criticised as more like collecting a business camp.
The portal recalls that on 5 December 2021, a fewer days before the first American Summit for Democracy, the Chinese Ministry of abroad Affairs besides published a study revealing the profoundly rooted problems of American democracy.
Lü Xiang said outside
pulling a fig leaf
from a failing American democracy, these nonsubjective reports are besides a reminder to more countries that American democracy is not a model for the world, and each country should choose its own way to democracy.
The Global Times powerfully states that these are national problems (ills – diseases) lead the US to a global demolition policy (global havoc).
Monday's study in item digs into the organization problems and crises facing American democracy, including the intensified political polarity through organization struggles, raging financial policy, “freedom of word” by name only, a judicial strategy that is blind to public opinion and increasing disappointment among Americans. The study noted that 2 years after the Capitol riots that took place on January 6, 2021, the American democratic strategy inactive has difficulty drawing conclusions, as political force continued to spread and worsen. American democracy is in worse form than ever, and the riots in legislature full exposure social and political divisions and widespread misinformation.
‘American democracy was embodied in its control and balance systems and electoral systems. However, due to the current imbalance in US interest camps, the electoral strategy can lead to utmost uncertainty – this is seen after the 2016 election and the 2024 presidential election. In specified uncertainty, the U.S. government is willing to take
tumultuous actions,
especially in diplomacy, which can bring risks to another countries" – explains Lü Xiang.
On the another hand, Zhu Ying, prof. of Baize Institute at Southwest University of Political discipline and Law points out that social confrontations, systemic racism, deepening wealth gap, rising financial risk... These are all problems faced by average Americans (all problems that have been affected on Americans), while politicians who fight politically have small time to deal with their real problems. There was 1 question that Biden had not raised earlier at the Summit on Democracy: "Is American democracy the only good democracy?". It besides did not address the themes of the collapse of American democracy and the bad fruits it created, including populism and unilateral sanctions, said Zhu Ying.
This place is worth stopping for a while. Chinese authors most likely rightly exposure the propaganda character of democracy – authoritarianism. He wonders, however, that the word "populism" in the negative sense given to them by this Western ideological formation, erstwhile she began to reject the democratic costume as not very suitable for its oligarchical character now. On the another hand, from the dictionary of liberal explanation of global relations they drew the expression of "international society", which served administration George W. Bush to justify aggression against Iraq.
However, let us go back to this article: ‘Instead of reasoning about
dysfunctions of American democracy,
The United States continues to export American democratic values to another countries. Analysts stated that the publication of the study on Monday – on the anniversary of the day on which the United States and their allies launched an invasion of Iraq 20 years ago, citing a lie about “the weapons of mass destruction” and causing many tragedies in the region – highlights the chaos and turbulence that the United States brought to the world. The imposition of democracy by the United States is not a real democracy, but a hegemonic democracy. Blood in Iraq, Syria and many another countries has taught countries around the planet to be more vigilant erstwhile the United States knocks on their door, carrying the banner of democracy"said Zhu Ying.
Finally, let us note that Chinese journalists do not even mention from the name of those countries that participated in the American aggression on Iraq. possibly that's good, due to the fact that among these countries there was besides Poland, in which they held power Aleksander Kwasniewski as President, Leszek Miller as Prime Minister, Vladimir Cimoszevich as abroad Minister. The support for left-wing authorities' decisions was expressed by the enthusiastic right-wing opposition: the Civic Platform and the Law and Justice. The self-defence Members expressed their opposition (Andrzej Lepper), League of Polish Families (Sigismund ulcer), the Polish People's organization (Janusz Dobrosz) and the Polish Agreement (Jan Lopuszanski).
