China accuses United States of ‘coercive diplomacy’

China has accused the United States of “coercive diplomacy” as representatives of the seven main democratic industrial nations (G7) start their summit in Hiroshima, Japan on Friday.

The three-day G7 summit is anticipated to give attention to methods to take care of China and its claims to energy.

However, China’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs alleged in a prolonged report that the US had a “very disgraceful ‘dark history’ in coercive diplomacy.”

“The United States is used to accusing other countries of using great power status, coercive policies and economic coercion to coerce other countries to obey and engage in coercive diplomacy, but in fact, the United States is the instigator of coercive diplomacy,” China mentioned.

“The invention rights, patent rights and intellectual property rights of coercive diplomacy all belong to the United States.”

China mentioned “coercive diplomacy” was a “standard instrument” within the US overseas coverage toolbox.

“Countries around the world have suffered, with developing countries bearing the brunt of it, and even US’ allies and partners have not been spared.”

Those who engaged in “coercion, sanctions, bullying, suppressing other countries and bringing chaos to the world, will eventually hurt themselves,” China warned.

“The United States should address its old habit of wanton coercive diplomacy and return a just and rational international order to the world.”
