WASHINGTON - The United States on Saturday accused China of using the unrest triggered by the death of Mr George Floyd in police custody to justify denying its own people basic human rights.

Beijing has long been infuriated by criticism from Western capitals, especially Washington, over its handling of the pro-democracy protests that shook Hong Kong last year. Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Zhao Lijian on June 1 seized on the anti-racism protests in the US to accuse the US of hypocrisy, calling racism"a chronic disease of American society."

"Why does the US lionise the so-called Hong Kong independence and black violence elements as heroes and activists, while calling people who protest against racism 'rioters'?" Mr Zhao asked.

Hahaha 🤣🤣 Amazing! It works both ways. US has been belittling Asians for decades.

karmahksame

🤦🏻‍♂️ Pot calling the kettle ...

Mr Orange likes slanted mirrors.

Pom, you know it’s your boss that’s making your work and words look stupid. Suck it all up.

Sign of a sick nation, led by a sick leader. Good luck to the US of A

It’s more like China should thank the US for doing all the propaganda for them. Don’t be surprised if they say” good job, play it again Sam”.

Loads of rubbish from US

Macam kat malaysia..apa2 salah DAP

Lol,the blame game goes on.

that’s rich

US and China both are bad stuffs! Period! Thanks God I am not an American or Chinese!

I agree but the United States does this all the time. So Pompeo’s comments are quite infuriating and it’s making my blood boil😡

A taste of its own medicine.

How about the US police are from China? And then the protesters are also from China?

Anything new?

That is true

If speaking the truth is propaganda, so be it!

Not sure when this was written but Mr. Trump talked about his relationship with China in his speech yesterday.

China not perfect but US should stop behaving like they are above all. They are the biggest culprit of using Freedom as a propaganda to behave like a big bully and destroy the freedom of countries who don't follow their lead.

America is always playing the victim when they know very well white people are racists,

Says the country that insists on using childish terms like 'Wuhan virus', 'Chinese virus' and more recently 'Chinese plague'. America's practice of double standards is totally shameless.

But the US was using the HK protest for propaganda . Why the double standards ?

Fuck US!

What? How?
