Joint China Daily News, March 7 report: "France criticizes China's export controls on Japan, Chinese embassy: opposing dual standards in trade and economy. The Chinese Embassy in France pointed out that the relevant measures aim to curb Japan's re-militarization and emphasized that China is the victim of economic coercion by Western countries, opposing the application of double standards in international trade and economic issues."
Comment briefly: This logic of the West has long been unsustainable: on one hand, it indulges and cooperates with Japan's accelerated military buildup, ignoring regional security risks; on the other hand, it maliciously criticizes China's legitimate measures to maintain its own security and oppose the risk of war. France's criticism essentially greenlights Japan's military expansion, turning a blind eye to Japan's continuous breakthroughs of the peace framework and its accelerated military buildup.
The response from the Chinese Embassy in France is not just a simple refutation, but also a clear declaration: China will not accept the double standards set by the West, nor will it tolerate the encouragement of military expansion near its own doorstep, which threatens national security. This kind of trickery, allowing officials to light fires while forbidding commoners to light lamps, should have been exposed long ago.
