Rome, Italy, Apr 2, 2020 / 08:30 am (CNA).- Poor countries are suffering from the coronavirus because of the Chinese Communist Party’s negligence and repression, a cardinal from Burma said Thursday.
“The Chinese regime led by the all-powerful Xi Jinping and the CCP — not its people — owes us all an apology and compensation for the destruction it has caused,” Cardinal Muang Bo, Archbishop of Yangon, wrote in an op-ed published April 2 by UCA News.
Cardinal Bo, who is head of the Federation of Asian Bishops’ Conferences, denounced the Chinese regime Thursday for withholding information about the coronavirus and punishing doctors and journalists who attempted to alert the world of the virus’ potential danger.
“China as a country is a great and ancient civilization that has contributed so much to the world throughout history, but this regime is responsible, through its criminal negligence and repression, for the pandemic sweeping through our streets today,” Cardinal Bo said.
“Let me be clear — it is the CCP that has been responsible, not the people of China, and no one should respond to this crisis with racial hatred toward the Chinese. Indeed, the Chinese people were the first victims of this virus and have long been the primary victims of their repressive regime. They deserve our sympathy, our solidarity and our support. But it is the repression, the lies and the corruption of the CCP that are responsible,” he said.

Good for Cardinal Bo. Guess he didn’t get (or is ignoring) the memo from the ChiComs’ lackeys at the Vatican
The only way they’ll pay is if we defeated them in a war. It probably won’t happen but who’d have thought our world would look like this a month ago?
Now CCP is getting very aggressive in the south China Sea.
Maybe Covid was weaponized for CCP conquest.
I don’t think we will be reading about AOC demanding reparations from China any time soon.
If a similar catastrophe could be laid at the feet of the United States, the monetary bill would be incalculable, and payment would go on for decades.
thats what i said when it first came out
From the Country who encourage folks to, “ hug a Chinese “
Lol. Not a CHANCE. She'll be on their side, that is, anything bad for America is on her agenda. Ugh. Te very thought of that traitor annoys me.
I doubt if Trump would give AOC a cent. Also, he would
call out the liars in a New York Trump minute.
Are they really that into hugging in Burma?
(In fairness I did have to look up where Yangon is, but it sure doesn’t sound Italian)
I’m sure China will pony up soon./s/
