Away from Beijing’s lofty rhetoric about defending Palestinians, Chinese firms are helping to sustain illegal settlements.

    First of all terrible source, but I said is China building settlements there?

    China is building Israeli settlements on Palestinian land, that is a massive difference from just trading with Israel.

      China is investing in Crimea, yes.

      *Edit. like how your trying to find inconsistencies in Chinese policy. The best part about China is they are always consistent. So I knew the answer to your question before even looking it up with no prior research.

      *Edit 2. I also love how the west is saying the same thing your saying. It’s political, it makes China look bad. Take my side China sempai

        Your article says that a Chinese company is looking to invest in Crimea, not that they are already doing it. I’m quite sure that if there were Chinese companies currently building in Crimea, we would have heard it in the newspapers.

        And Crimea would not even be the best comparison because China does support the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Whereas China says it does not support the Israeli colonialism in the West Bank.
