       President of Iran Mahmoud Ahmadinejad where he discusses the
       Yemen War, how capitalism fuels war, the military-industrial
       complex in the US and the presence of UK and US forces in the

       [quote]Germany finishes a two-year term on the 15-member council
       at the end of this month and Ambassador Christoph Heusgen plans
       to retire after more than 40 years as a diplomat.
       "Let me end my tenure on the Security Council by appealing to my
       Chinese colleagues to ask Beijing for the release of Michael
       Kovrig and Michael Spavor. Christmas is the right moment for
       such a gesture," Heusgen told the council session, whose
       official agenda topic was Iran.
       Kovrig, a former Canadian diplomat who was working as an adviser
       for the International Crisis Group think tank, and businessman
       Spavor were detained by Beijing in 2018 shortly after Canadian
       police picked up Huawei Technologies Co Ltd Chief Financial
       Officer Meng Wanzhou on a U.S. warrant.
       China's deputy U.N. ambassador, Geng Shuang, accused Heusgen of
       abusing the Security Council to launch "malicious" attacks on
       other members "in an attempt to poison the working atmosphere".
       "I wish to say something out of the bottom of my heart: Good
       riddance, Ambassador Heusgen," Geng said. "I am hoping that the
       council in your absence in the year 2021 will be in a better
       position to fulfil the responsibilities...for maintaining
       international peace and security."[/quote]
       I like this response. Just one thing, Geng:

       Stop wearing that Western suit. What we need to be saying good
       riddance to is Western civilization as a whole!

       China-India Ties: What efforts are needed to further de-escalate
       tensions?
       [quote]After imposing a preliminary ban in June on 59 Chinese
       apps, including TikTok and WeChat, India made the ban permanent
       this week. What's the thinking behind the blanket ban? And China
       and India have held a ninth round of the Corps Commander Level
       Meetings agreeing to push for an early disengagement of
       frontline troops. So what efforts are needed to further
       de-escalate tensions in the region? And how much impact is the
       border dispute having on economic ties?[/quote]

       This is how to talk to Westerners.
       I of course put it even more strongly: there is no better poetic
       justice than using a weapon against the civilization which
       invented it.

       China is slowly learning the correct way to talk to Westerners:
  HTML https://www.yahoo.com/news/china-urges-australia-close-offshore-161852857.htmlhttps://www.yahoo.com/news/china-urges-australia-close-offshore-161852857.html
       [quote]China urges Australia to close offshore detention centres
       GENEVA (Reuters) - China on Friday said it was "deeply
       concerned" by what it described as the Australian government's
       operation of offshore detention centres, and it called for the
       sites to be closed immediately.
       ...
       In a statement to the U.N. Human Rights Council in Geneva, China
       alleged that the detention centres "fall short of adequate
       medical conditions where a large number of immigrants, refugees
       and asylum seekers have been detained over a long period of time
       or even indefinitely, and their human rights have been
       violated."
       It did not specify any locations, describing them as "third
       countries". Asylum seekers intercepted at sea en route to
       Australia are sent for "processing" to Papua New Guinea or to
       the South Pacific island of Nauru.
       ...
       "We urge Australia to immediately close down all offshore
       detention centers and take concrete steps to protect the rights
       of immigrants, refugees and asylum seekers, especially
       children," China said in its statement, which it submitted on
       behalf of a group of unnamed countries.[/quote]
       However, what is missing from this statement is what will happen
       to Australia if it refuses to close down its detention centres
       (e.g. how many WMDs will hit it every day until it complies).
       China has apparently not yet recognized that there is no other
       way to get through to Westerners.
