China State Media Demonizes its Netizens' #StandWithUkraine Effort

Since Russia began its invasion of Ukraine, Chinese-language comments supporting the aggression and deriding Ukrainian women were made by #LittlePink and opinion leaders on various social media platforms in China. Other Chinese-speaking netizens, who were appalled at these comments and behaviors, began translating them into other languages and posting them online for the world to see.

Calling themselves "The Great Translation Movement", the volunteer translators soon caught the attention of international media - as well as China's own propaganda machine.

Global Times, a tabloid owned by the Chinese Communist Party, condemned these volunteer translation efforts for painting China in a negative light. In a Weibo post on March 17, 2022, The Party mouthpiece called the translations an "evil force", inciting Anti-China hate on the Internet and endangering China as a whole. It also accused the participants to be supported by "foreign, anti-China forces", suggesting that they lacked "normal morals" and could not bear to see China's successful development - and its "temporary problems".

China-Russian hails ties and scorns international sanctions against Moscow's invasion in Ukraine calling them "illegal" and "counter-productive"

At a time when Russia is being condemned by the international community for its all-out invasion in Ukraine, China’s Foreign Minister Wang Yi said on March 30, 2022 that the desire of China and Russia to develop bilateral relations has become even "stronger" so has the confidence to promote cooperation in various directions.

#WangYi and his Russian counterpart #SergeiLavrov emerged from their meetings with a show of unity, appearing to reaffirm their countries' friendship and criticising economic sanctions imposed by the West against Moscow for invading Ukraine as "illegal" and "counter-productive."

"China-Russia relations have withstood the new test of changing international landscape," Wang said after the meeting. "China is ready to work with Russia to take China-Russia relations to a higher level in the new era."

China has refused to condemn Russia's invasion outright, and it abstained from voting on United Nations resolutions demanding Moscow immediately stop its attack on Ukraine.

Instead, Beijing has accused the United States of intensifying tensions, while highlighting Moscow’s “legitimate security concerns” regarding the eastward expansion of #Nato.
