Europe should learn from China because its ruling Communist Party is better serving the interests of its people, said Mick Wallace, MEP for the Irish South, a Chinese Communist Party newspaper.
« The reason we get something from What China can learn is that Europe is not doing a great job serving the interests of its people. « Mr. Wallace was quoted as saying in an interview with the Global Times.
» The system of government serves the people better, while the system of government in Europe first serves its business « , »? he went on.
« I think we can learn lessons from China, which are better attentive to citizens’ concerns than Europeans currently do. »
Global Times is an English-language tabloid published by People’s Daily, the official Chinese Communist Party (CCP) newspaper.
In an editorial accompanying Mr. Wallace’s words, the newspaper wrote that the party « has overcome various difficulties and challenges, and the most remarkable ones Has spearheaded the achievements of national construction as well as the colossal transformation of China « .
The party’s » Legitimation » and « human-centered » Approach has made it to « an influential, internationally renowned party », the editorial team continued. It then included words of praise from a number of academics, former politicians, and Mr. Wallace.
« The CCP has obviously played a powerful role in helping so many hundreds of millions in China get out of poverty. That was a remarkable achievement. You couldn’t have done that in the capitalist system. Mr. Wallace was quoted as saying.
“China could not have made the same progress with a capitalist system. So the CCP deserves a lot of credit for the progress China has made.
The United States has recently been pushing for Europe to take a tougher stance on China, warning of the massive military build-up that has led to it that it developed the world’s second largest naval and military bases in Africa.
However, there is disagreement within the EU on how to balance the importance of trade and cooperation on climate change, with pressures on issues such as increasing incursions into Taiwanese airspace, the mass incarceration of Muslims as part of « re-education » ?? ? Camp in Xinjiang and crackdown on freedoms in Hong Kong.
In a lengthy version of the interview with reporter Yu Jincui published earlier this month, Wallace said China shouldn’t worry about criticism from the West.
« You criticized China because they don’t want China to be so successful. They will criticize you everywhere if you do something well. You shouldn’t worry about them, Mr. Wallace was quoted as saying.
He stated that the Chinese Communist Party was undoubtedly « not perfect, » but that its ability to lift people out of poverty « shows that you are doing something right ”. ??.
â €? The people who have the most money in China might like to do it differently. It’s a challenge for any communist system when people with a lot of money get very powerful in any country, ”he said. he warned.
“So this is a danger that China has to be careful of. I think it’s important that China doesn’t embrace neoliberalism.
