EU calls on China to stop building coal plants and contribute to a climate fund for poor nations
Ass. Press/ABC News ^ | November 16, 2023 | Staff Propagandists

Europe and the U.S. have been arguing that wealthier emerging economies such as China and Saudi Arabia should also give money to the fund. Hoekstra said that what is true for the European Union and North America should be true for any country in a position of economic and geopolitical strength.

“And that means driving down emissions and doing your fair share in covering the bill for those who cannot,” he said.

Given the magnitude of the problem, “every single country with the ability to pay and the ability to contribute should contribute,” he said.

A statement issued by China’s environment ministry did not address the climate fund for poor countries. It said that Ecology and Environment Minister Huang Runqiu told Hoekstra that he is looking forward to working with the EU for a successful U.N. climate meeting. Success would help build a fair, reasonable, cooperative and win-win system to address climate change, he said.

China believes they are the “Middle Kingdom” destined to rule the planet—over the idiot Eurocrats.

Misstranslation.

Should be "Central Kingdom."

“It never made sense for us to shutter our economically viable coal plants...”

Well, it makes perfect sense if you want to destroy the global economy and cull 7.5 billion useless breeders.

Be sure to send Xi a strongly worded letter.
But really this is bs theater for the rubes. The EU and John Kerry know that China will continue building coal fired plants and will not be paying out any third world climate reparations.

Not “rule” in the sense of physically occupy. They would define “rule” as having “hegemony” over the barbarian nations. (Barbarian is defined to be all nations\people not China.) Some nations are less “barbarian” then others. Traditionally that was defined as physical distance from China - the further away the more “barbarian “. To the true Han foreigners are dirty smelly & unclean.

“Hegemony” means indirect control through native rulers, it also means a form of economic control, a sort of colonialism. They view that as payback for the “400 Years of Shame - meaning Western domination\control” - title of a party congress speech (Given some 20 years ago!) Achieving “Hegemony” over the US is basically what they are doing through Biden and any other US politician who snuggles up to them.

In fourth paragraph, I saw words “climate fund,” so I added that keyword. I clicked on it, and headlines say terrorist countries run it, and Obamanation donates to it.

All the Green Weenies in the EU need to STFU about their global agenda and war on energy. If China or the United States, or all of Africa wants to use cheap coal for energy putting your overtaxed welfare states in a uncompetitive economic position you can no longer control.
