China has claimed illogical paranoia, outdated stereotypes and political distortion have betrayed Australia's relationship with Beijing, as it moves to ease diplomatic tensions after months of escalating hostility.
"All of a sudden, there was this shocking proposal from Australia, supposed to be a good friend of China... the intensity of emotion of our people, how much indignation, anger and frustration they expressed," said Mr Wang. "It is approximately identical to Julius Caesar in his final date when he saw Brutus approaching him."Alex Ellinghausen
Liberal MP Dave Sharma, Australia's former ambassador to Israel, accused China of being too sensitive. "At latest count COVID-19 has killed 800,000 people worldwide and caused economic disruption on a scale not seen since the Great Depression," he said. "If getting to the bottom of what caused this generates some 'hurt feelings,' I think that is the least of our concerns.
The United States, France, Germany, Japan, the United Kingdom and the European Union have all raised similar concerns and continue to have high-level ministerial diplomatic contact with Beijing. Australia has not had direct contact with President Xi Jinping, Foreign Minister Wang Yi or Commerce Minister Zhong Shan since January and is the only country to have been targeted for multiple trade strikes on beef, barley, wine students and tourists.
ErykBagshaw Mr Wang certainly is a dick. Why was this wang invited to lunch?
ErykBagshaw Send this fella back to China. They would do the same if Aussie diplomat said similar views in China
ErykBagshaw Horrendous abuse of power, bullying tactics, bullying economics, guilty for countless deaths by delay of health information - This is China's contribution to the world. The age of china is over...the time...for the world....has now come.
ErykBagshaw I think they should own up to the terrible pandemic and apologise to the world .
ErykBagshaw We can send tissues for your emotional hurt if you send cash compensation for the loss and damage cause by what is the Chinese COVID 19
ErykBagshaw If I remember it was China's embassy that was bombed. Not the other way around. China has started no war. Australia is a bully.
ErykBagshaw If Australia could do those tariffs they would. Have done before. Also started by the west with protection racket kicking in.
ErykBagshaw Former ambassador to Israel says China to sensitive. What about Israel?
ErykBagshaw I knew this was coming. I wondered how long Australia was going to take China's money? Of course it is insulting. But Oz sided with US, not biggest trading partner. Look at how many things are thrown at China, simultaneously. It's not right to behave this way.
ErykBagshaw Sir is projecting, me thinks....
ErykBagshaw The ambassador tells some home truths.. most will react with repulsion, hopefully we will listen and gain perspective.
ErykBagshaw The CCP murdered a guy who reported being offered a bribe by them
ErykBagshaw The Chinese government can kiss my ass.
ErykBagshaw Did somebody speak? 🙉
ErykBagshaw You too Brutus? Then fall Caesar.
ErykBagshaw We should say no to the bully by the CCP
ErykBagshaw
ErykBagshaw
ErykBagshaw China isn't being singled out, that's why independence of the investigation is of importance. Independence from any govt or commercial influence, incl from the WHO. MFA_China
ErykBagshaw No one intended to hurt Chinese peoples' feelings with an investigation of origin, first infections & spread of covid19. An independent investigation is just protocol whenever a pandemic or significant event occurs & it doesn't matter who's involved, it needs to occur MFA_China
ErykBagshaw Now the CCP is playing softball to the free world, they need to import tons of food to stop the scarcity and food inflation due to the lost on their crops on the floods.
ErykBagshaw The sad reality is that we’ve allowed and relied too much on Chinese migration for any meaningful change to take place. There is simply too many of them here. They’ve infiltrated our schools, property market, business- too little anger, too late.
ErykBagshaw Current sinophobic hysteria will only lead to more sinological ignorance, future potential brainless uppityness and stupidity.
ErykBagshaw Oh fuck off
ErykBagshaw It’s not me, it’s you.
ErykBagshaw what part of 'Wuhan virus from China' is wrong Caesar?
ErykBagshaw China can go find first class red wine, beef and barley from someone else 🤷🏻♂️
ErykBagshaw One of the most outrageous speakers at the National Press Club . A long winded PR attempt with prepared answers and quotes . How did Saba Lane keep a straight face ?
ErykBagshaw Your secret is out China. There is no relationship with you that can ever be win/win. Unless you win twice.
ErykBagshaw The world will not survive without China.
ErykBagshaw
ErykBagshaw Dear China when you get over the emotional upset we have caused you, would you kindly stop your systematic torture of dogs and cats. yulindogmeatfestival
ErykBagshaw The audacity of this chap... now I’ve had it to the back teeth; given all the hurt the CCP is directly responsible for. Someone ought to throttle him into the next post code.
ErykBagshaw What a lot of rubbish from this Chinese mouth piece! China is a bully and sooner or later this bully will be punished by the rest of the world. Let’s call what it is like Trump did, this is a Wuhan virus and it infected millions and killed hundreds of thousands !!!!!
ErykBagshaw How about just stay out of lane China
ErykBagshaw Whatever else, it was a fascinating presentation to listen to...
ErykBagshaw Does CCP, think at this stage, in global economic and military build up sincerely think the world is going to “ listen “ to anything their Ambassadors and Representatives tell us? First we were gum under America’s boot and now we a Brutus to China’s Caesar.
ErykBagshaw Stop trying to rewrite history. The PRC and CCP has alot to answer for in relationship to the virus, Hong Kong, Taiwan, South China Sea & interference in our Liberal Democracy. They want respect then start respecting the World. Stop believing your own propaganda.
ErykBagshaw China. They’re clueless. China is a belligerent teenage bully. 9-lines? Taiwan? Tibet? Hong Kong? The Uighurs? And the list goes on for Chinese selfish bullying behaviour.
ErykBagshaw They reckon words hurt Good luck to them if we ever gets the guts up and send them the bill !!!!
ErykBagshaw So far, every representative of the CCP that has spoken up in Australia have made literally FOOLS of themselves.Not one has spoken with “ diplomacy “ but with contempt and arrogance on the borderline of STUPIDITY.
ErykBagshaw Risible
ErykBagshaw You’re lying, China, sort yourself out! The world is waiting. 1❤️
ErykBagshaw Pretty simple message to Oz: if you want to jump a few weight divisions, expect to get hit hard and often.
ErykBagshaw So gaslighting is their approach?
ErykBagshaw *He says in a straight face as Australian industries haemorrhages tens of billions per month*
ErykBagshaw I think everyone should send the Embassy boxes of tissues, romcom DVDs and cards wishing their feelings get well soon.
ErykBagshaw 😢
ErykBagshaw China a bunch of crybabies that cant handle criticism
ErykBagshaw Trying to back pedal seeing as their “wolf warrior” tactics are not working? No one cares about their “hurt feelings”. Enough of their bullshit and propaganda.
ErykBagshaw Fcuk the CCP
ErykBagshaw Pure garbage. They should have walked out.
ErykBagshaw Perhaps you should send the Chinese Embassy a copy of Clive Hamilton's Hidden Hand? I hope all your journalists have read it?
mahootna2 ErykBagshaw China has a Covid-19 Vaccine, has had for an undetermined amount of time . . . need any more be said?
ErykBagshaw Always other nation’s fault, not China’s fault. CCP is always absolutely right.
ErykBagshaw No, that’s not it.
ErykBagshaw
ErykBagshaw Will China apologize for the hurt it has caused to the rest of the world for the damage it has caused by allowing the corona virus to develop and spread throughout the world?
ErykBagshaw I am sure that all the people that caught and died from the corona virus that originated in China don’t care if China’s feelings are hurt.
ErykBagshaw Hmmmm . China got a bit hurt and tried to damage Australia’s economy .
mahootna2 ErykBagshaw China is right. Morrison used China as an excuse to try and look tough for local politics. Pathetic really. His public grandstanding was offensive to China and he doesn’t seem to care which is even more alarming. “Et tu Brute”
ErykBagshaw Was The Benny Hill Show big in China, like everywhere else, before The Age of Wokeness? I’ll guess ‘No’ 😂😂😂
ErykBagshaw Even the Monty Python gang didn’t write such good lines. GOLD
ErykBagshaw Of they aren't playing the racist card it's the victim card. It's too late for the CCP it's over.
ErykBagshaw WE SHOULD COMPARE THE PAIR & NOT BE ON SUCH A HIGH HORSE.
ErykBagshaw IMHO this commentary was shocking. IMHO the Chinese ambassador should be apologising to Australians and ensuring trade relations during this difficult time. Not escalating tensions by sending some of their Chinese representatives who are discriminating against, people.
ErykBagshaw Who’s he kidding?
ErykBagshaw Yep it's our fault... school yard tactic...
ErykBagshaw MORRISON WANTS TO FOLLOW HIS MASTER TRUMP INTO A WAR BEFORE THE TRUMP ELECTION SO TRUMP CAN HAVE HIS WAR DISTRACTION TO HIDE HIS INCOMPETENCE. MAYBE MORRISON ALSO WANTS THIS DISTRACTION.
ErykBagshaw MORRISON STARTED THIS RIFT WHEN CHINA RAISED CONCERNS ABOUT OVER 400 RACIST ATTACKS AGAINST AUSTRALIAN CHINESE PEOPLE. CHEIF WIGGUM MORRISON RESPONSE WAS 'NOTHING TO SEE HERE' EVEN WHEN HIS OWN LIBERAL MP'S WERE INCITING RACISM.
ErykBagshaw Wow, it’s like they know Scummo and his clownshow inside out.
ErykBagshaw China lied, people died, then China lied some more.
ErykBagshaw
ErykBagshaw Paranoia?
ErykBagshaw Do not allow China to get away with this. Don’t cool down on them. Keep the fire alive!
ErykBagshaw Scomo lapdog to Trumps owner more like. Great work throwing Australia under a bus again for your master ScottyTheSimp ScottyFromMarketing
