Chinese Vice President Han Zheng threatened Taiwan with the 'firm resolve, strong will, and the power of the Chinese people' at the U.N.
Chinese Vice President Han Zheng promised the United Nations General Assembly during his address on Thursday afternoon that his Communist Party would never practice “hegemony and expansion” and promote dialogue and peace – before threatening the nation of Taiwan with the “firm resolve, strong will, and the power of the Chinese people.”
The United Nations recommends, though does not mandate, that speeches be loosely tied to a theme. This year’sXi was one of several leaders of rogue regimes who did not risk the trip to New York. Chinese state media did not dwell on Xi’s aversion to travel,“We should respect the sovereignty and territorial integrity of all countries and observe the purposes and principles of the U.N.
Elsewhere in his remarks, Han rejected the notion of universal human rights, suggesting that “national conditions” determine the value of the humanity of that nation’s citizens.
