Wu Shicun, president of the Academic Committee of China’s Institute of South China Sea Studies, stated in an interview with The Paper that, in the new global scenario, showing on how to protect this nation’s sovereignty and legitimate interests is essential.
Academicians analyzed during an expert forum how, in less than a week, the United States militarily struck Venezuela, issued threats against Colombia, Cuba, Iran, and Mexico, and proclaimed that its dominance in the Western Hemisphere would not be questioned.
The White House also announced on January 7 the United States’ withdrawal from 66 international organizations that, according to Washington, no longer align with its interests.
China’s special envoy for climate change, Liu Zhenmin, in turn, stressed in the debate that interference by external powers that undermines peace in the South China Sea must be firmly prevented.
Several voices from the Chinese academia and government have warned and denounced in recent days the impact of the United States’ military airstrike on Venezuela and the kidnapping of President Nicolas Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores.
