China Applauds Russian Comments on Summit for 'Democracy'

“We applaud the remarks of the Russian side,” said Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Mao Ning when asked for comments on Russia’s denunciation of the “Summit for Democracy,” better called a “Summit for Hypocrisy.”

“What our world needs today is not to stoke division in the name of democracy and pursue de facto supremacy-oriented unilateralism, but to strengthen solidarity and cooperation and uphold true multilateralism on the basis of the purposes and principles of the UN charter.”
