India should “not feel alone” in its strategy of defending itself against and defending against a self-confident “Communist Party of China”, even if countries around the world are gradually facing the “threat from the Marxist-Leninist ideology” US Secretary of State recognizing Michael R. Pompeo told ThePrint editor-in-chief Shekhar Gupta in an exclusive interview on Tuesday.
Pompeo, who was in New Delhi for 26 hours with US Secretary of Defense Mark T. Esper, said India is with like-minded countries like the US, Australia and Japan and can never feel alone in the fight against the “Chinese” Communist Party “.
“I’ve watched relations between the US, Japan, Australia and India grow, deepen and expand. We’re called Quad, but leave the name aside for a moment. We are four great democracies with great economies and a shared view of the rule of law and transparency. None of these countries is ever alone with such relationships, ”said Pompeo.
The top member of Donald Trump’s cabinet also drew a parallel between what China is doing to Uyghur Muslims and what Nazi Germany did to Jews in the 1930s.
Why he is referring to “Chinese Communist Party”, not China
According to Pompeo, the Chinese Communist Party follows the Marxist-Leninist ideology and not the Chinese people whom the world should “face”.
“The Chinese Communist Party wants the same thing everywhere – they want to control and dominate, they want to have political influence, they want to be extractive,” said the foreign minister.
“You see this in the Belt and Road Initiative … These are predatory economic activities that are a little bit intended to build a road for someone, but mostly to get their teeth into this country, to be political in that place and when.” Influence It is time to pay tribute to this country, ”he continued.
“There is a long history in which the Chinese have nations to pay tribute to. This is the same model that the Chinese Communist Party has now adopted. This is dangerous to the world and I am confident that India, the US and other freedom loving nations will push this back in a way that will make the world more stable and secure, ”added Pompeo.
Pompeo also stressed that India’s troubles with China over the six-month LAC standoff in Ladakh, in which the country lost 20 of its soldiers, stemmed from the Chinese Communist Party.
“The problems in the world, the challenge of whether it is the problems that are currently on your (Indian) northern border or the fact that the virus escaped and the Chinese Communist Party did not inform the world in time to prevent immeasurable misery from occurring, “he said.
“It wasn’t the Chinese people, it was the Communist Party, an authoritarian regime that was simply unable to deal with a crisis in a way that the world would meet all expectations and what it promised the world. You are part of WHO and had an obligation to do better. ” – He said
