Lmao, that's rich coming fron those countries...
So you think it’s not legitimate for them to urge a probe, but it is legitimate for western countries (mainly the US/UK) to urge similar probes around ‘human rights concerns’ into the conduct of China, and Russia?
It's obviously a move from China to go "no u". A probe would be great but historic bad treatment and even genocide isn't quite the same as ongoing one.
It's hard to take this call for a probe from China seriously because of that.
If Canada is so concerned about genocide, they should lead by example and allow a thorough examination of their own crimes, before they point the fingers at others. Otherwise its just hypocrisy and double standards.
Absolutely but also China is doing the exact same thing, pointing fingers at Canada's past while they're doing the same right now. It's hypocrisy all around.
