Recent clashes in Chile and Spain’s Catalonia region have added fuel to China’s claims that Western governments and media have hypocritically supported Hong Kong’s protests even while condemning violence at home.“We see violence today in Hong Kong being reproduced in other places,” Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi said on Monday, citing the clashes in Catalonia and Chile, as well as protests in London.
Hong Kong’s police force has faced accusations of committing abuses during nearly five months of increasingly violent protests in the financial hub. “In recent months we’ve seen both Beijing and Chinese state media coming out very strongly against the protesters, painting them as villains in the unfolding drama,” said Adam Ni, a China researcher at Macquarie University.Beijing was using the situation in Catalonia as evidence that “only with a strong central government, strong law enforcement, can we stay afloat above this sea of chaos”.
