China challenges the G7 members’ “credibility”

China has charged the US-led group with attempting to impose its will on others.

According to a statement released by the Chinese Foreign Ministry on Saturday, the international community will not adopt the pro-Western guidelines promoted by the G7 and would not permit the US-led group to rule the globe.

China would never consent to the ‘rules’ imposed by a select few. The statement said, “The worldwide community does not and will not accept the G7-dominated Western policies that seek to sever the globe into ideologies and values.

The group was also charged with attempting to force its will on others and operating in support of “America-first” policies, according to the Foreign Ministry. That merely illustrates how little G7 credibility on the global stage, according to the ministry.

The United States, Canada, Britain, France, Germany, Italy, and Japan make up the Group of Seven, an informal group. Usually, representatives of the EU are present at the G7 yearly meetings.

The G7 cited several accusations against Beijing in a unified declaration that was issued during the meeting in Hiroshima, Japan, on Saturday. These included technology theft, “economic coercion,” and domestic human rights violations. The group asserted that it vehemently rejects “any unilateral attempts to change the status quo by force” in the South China Sea and vicinity of Taiwan.

The Chinese capital’s response was that “issues pertaining to Hong Kong, Xinjiang, and Tibet are purely China’s internal affairs.” The G7 was charged by China of threatening regional peace by “supporting ‘Taiwan independence’ forces.”

Although the G7 countries do not formally establish diplomatic relations with Taiwan, the US has provided Taipei with weaponry and pledged to defend it from future attacks from the mainland. Politicians from the US have also met with Taiwanese government representatives, drawing scathing criticism from Beijing, which rejects all diplomatic ties with Taipei.
