The Chinese government has been “transparent, open” and “very quick” in its response to the coronavirus outbreak, Beijing’s ambassador to the United Kingdom said Thursday.
Liu Xiaoming urged international cooperation during the pandemic and said “blaming” and “bullying” would just create a wedge between nations.
The United States thinks “they can bully China, they think they can bully the world," he continued in an online news conference with a member of Britain's House of Lords.

Liu compared America's actions regarding China to 19th-century colonial wars.
“Some politicians, some people, want to play at being the world’s policeman - this is not the era of gunboat diplomacy, this is not the era when China was a semi-colonial, semi-feudal society," he said.

How much of a kickback is this clown getting, or do the chicoms have his family hostage?

To stop the return of manufacturing of products back to the US that went to China. China backers here who’s family members are making millions from China through their political connections will be hit hard are also claiming that Trump’s alleged stock ownership in a quinine pills maker claim its a controlling interest in a product to be totally ineffective and when used requires a severe restriction of movement when near a possible carrier known as a shutdown because of its rapid transmission .
“ Liu Xiaoming urged international cooperation during the pandemic”
The time for that was in December 2019.

The ambassador’s words, which aimed at criticising Trump government, can be seen as a thinly veiled warning to little Britain. In 19th century, it was the British empire’s gunboats(in the opium wars) that plunged China into the miserable semi-colonial, semi-feudal society.
“Liu compared America’s actions regarding China to 19th-century colonial wars.”
Where Britain won by addicting the Chinese to opium?
That’s an apt comparison, given China’s current sky-high Fentanyl production and smuggling to the US.
