Secessionists must not spoil the word ‚peace‘: Global Times editorial

The current situation is entirely caused by Pelosi and American politicians. China has made the utmost diplomatic efforts before, repeatedly warning the US of the seriousness and danger of Pelosi‘s visit to Taiwan. However, the US turned a deaf ear, went its own way, and even deliberately ignored China‘s emphasis – „Those who play with fire will perish by it“ – as no more than an often-used metaphor. Now they are manipulating the public opinion by complaining maliciously about China‘s „overreaction,“ doesn‘t the move come from their previous serious underestimation of China‘s determination and will?

It is both ironic and absurd that the key points of Washington‘s current accusations against China are only appropriate for the US itself, as if the US thinks of these wordings when looking in the mirror.
