      China has been trying to maintain good relations with Ukraine, even throughout the war. A recent statement from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the PRC: https://www.fmprc.gov.cn/mfa_eng/zxxx_662805/202209/t20220924_10770931.html

      Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba after meeting China's Foreign Minister Wang Yi:

      My counterpart reaffirmed China’s respect for Ukraine’s sovereignty and territorial integrity, as well as its rejection of the use of force as a means of resolving differences

      According to Zelensky back in May regarding the war:

      China has chosen the policy of staying away. At the moment, Ukraine is satisfied with this policy. It is better than helping the Russian Federation in any case. And I want to believe that China will not pursue another policy. We are satisfied with this status quo, to be honest

      China has also been Ukraine's top trading partner and largest recipient of Ukrainian weapons in recent years. Ukraine was second only to Russia as an arms exporter to China. Before the war, Ukraine was China's top corn supplier and China was also the top importer of Ukrainian iron ore, barley, vegetable oils, and jet turbine engines.

      Ukraine joined the BRI and was expected to become a key partner. China still has large infrastructure projects underway in Ukraine. Zelensky said that he hoped that Ukraine would become “a bridge to Europe for Chinese business.”

    Love how reddit's response to zero muslim countries going along with this vote is just to enforce the racist "dumb savages" trope and say they sold out their fellow muslims, instead of questioning exactly why no muslim country buys this narrative in the first place

      During the cold war, the anticommunist ideological framework could transform any data about existing communist societies into hostile evidence. If the Soviets refused to negotiate a point, they were intransigent and belligerent; if they appeared willing to make concessions, this was but a skillful ploy to put us off our guard. By opposing arms limitations, they would have demonstrated their aggressive intent; but when in fact they supported most armament treaties, it was because they were mendacious and manipulative. If the churches in the USSR were empty, this demonstrated that religion was suppressed; but if the churches were full, this meant the people were rejecting the regime’s atheistic ideology. If the workers went on strike (as happened on infrequent occasions), this was evidence of their alienation from the collectivist system; if they didn’t go on strike, this was because they were intimidated and lacked freedom. A scarcity of consumer goods demonstrated the failure of the economic system; an improvement in consumer supplies meant only that the leaders were attempting to placate a restive population and so maintain a firmer hold over them. If communists in the United States played an important role struggling for the rights of workers, the poor, African-Americans, women, and others, this was only their guileful way of gathering support among disfranchised groups and gaining power for themselves. How one gained power by fighting for the rights of powerless groups was never explained. What we are dealing with is a nonfalsifiable orthodoxy, so assiduously marketed by the ruling interests that it affected people across the entire political spectrum. :parenti::parenti: :parenti::parenti::parenti:

        They often vote to condemn Israeli treatment of Palestinians. So (if one believes Xinjiang is being ethnically cleansed), you'd think they'd vote to condemn China's treatment of Uyghurs.

        Since no Muslim countries are voting to condemn China, westerners need some explanation other than the simple explanation that the reports of abuse in XJ are greatly exaggerated.

    The defeat (19 against, 17 for, 11 abstentions) is only the second time in the council's 16-year history that a motion has been rejected and is seen by observers as a setback to both accountability efforts and the West's moral authority.

      China’s ambassador had warned shortly before the vote that the motion would create a “dangerous shortcut” for examining other countries’ human rights records.

      Good, we need to start examining human rights abuses everywhere and put a stop to it all. I don't care what country is investigated.

      Bro 'human rights abuses' are used as casus belli against a country, the USA invades them and makes it worse, and then they just keep doing that again and again forever

      Redditors really can't think about history or anything, 100% just stuck in a psychopathic hivemind that perpetuates the worst of imperialism under the auspices of 'good vibes'

        I'd say it will be more like Rhodesia stans. Confederate apologists deny the war was about slavery, and neonazis deny the Holocaust. Rhodesia supporters fully acknowledge and support the apartheid past.

          neonazis deny the Holocaust

          Denying the holocaust is something only some of them do. Plenty of them, dare I say even the majority of them, admit it happened and think it was "Based."

          Confederate apologists deny the war was about slavery

          Again, only some of them. Even then, barely. They say it was about "State's Rights." Which begs the response "States Rights to Own Slaves." Then you point at the secession documents and quotes from their officials and they usually at that point either stop responding or call you a slur.

          Rhodesia supporters fully acknowledge and support the apartheid past.

          So do nazis and confederate apologists. The era of American history most analogous to South African Apartheid, i.e. segregation, came after emancipation. All those lost causer confederate apologists absolutely will be open about supporting "separate but """equal"""" segregation even if they deny the war was about slavery. And nazis, whether they deny the holocaust, or claim it was "based", they advocate "racially homogenous ethnostates" and deportation of ethnic minorities, religious minorities, immigrants, etc. In fact, the holocaust-denying nazis will usually cope by saying that Hitler "only deported" Jews. Which means they support deportation of people they don't like, whether legal or undocumented. That's apartheid, comrade. That's segregation.

            I was more referring to rhetoric they use. Of course Nazis like genocide, they wouldn't be Nazis if they didn't. I'm just referring to how those groups try to rehabilitate the image of the genocidal regime they support in their propaganda. They don't start off radicalizing people to fascism by saying "yeah we like genocide", they lead into that.
