German Minister of Foreign Affairs Call on Biden to Unite against CCP, with the Response from the Head of Chinese Official Media with Foul Language

After the US media predicted that Biden defeated Trump in the President-election yesterday, European leaders came to congratulate Biden, with the prospect of cooperating with the US to confront global issues. Heiko Maas, the Minister of Foreign Affairs in Germany, have raised a stir with Chinese official media after he published his congratulatory statement.

After the announcement from the media about the victory of Biden, Maas also congratulated Biden in a statement and mentioned his plan to connect with the US government, regarding issues of China, climate change, and the coronavirus pandemic. Maas stated that only if the west come together in unity, would they have the necessary influence to defend their shared values of the world.

In the fear that the west would rebuild their front against China, Chen Weihua, the head of European division of China Daily, posted “The funking Mass” on Twitter yesterday to express his discontent and aggression. He soon deleted his insult, but Thorsten Benner, the founder of Global Public Policy Institute, captured this classic post just in time.

State Owned China Daily Spends US$2M in 6 Months to Promote US-China Relations

Latest filings to the US show the Chinese owned media China Daily spent over US$2.4 million, including US$881k advertisement fees to 17 publications and media outlets in six months. Amongst them are LA Times and Wall Street Journal in the US, Globe and Mail in Canada and Financial Times in the UK. The money was spent on editorials that promote a pro-China agenda locally.

The US’s Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA) requires all individual and organizational delegates of foreign governments to regularly disclose their activities and financial arrangements within the US. China Daily submitted its statement of records from May to October this year to the US Department of Justice last week, which shows that the media has paid LA Times US$340k of advertisement fees and US$110k of printing fees to carry out advertising and promotional activities.

New-Elected Senates Asked for Pelosi's Explanation on Having China Daily in the Office without Requests

Ashley Hinson, a new Republican member of the House of Representatives, sent a letter to Nancy Pelosi last week, asking for an explanation on the appearance of the CCP media China Daily in the Congress office. She also stated her will of prohibiting China official publication from appearing in the Congress.

Hinson saw China Daily appearing in her office on Friday without asking for it. "Neither I nor my staff has requested, so I am shocked. I demand Pelosi, with her power of being the Head of the Congress, to stop the CCP from distributing their official publication in our godly building."

China Daily is being classified as communism propaganda by the State Council that it catches attention due to frequently reporting CCP's brutal claims. These reports include helping millions of Uyghurs women not only to be "childbirth machine" in the re-educational camps, and claiming the US has the first case of AIDS then spreading to the world.

#ChinaDaily Caught Promoting China with Stolen Photo of #Switzerland, After Criticizing Western Media's Credibility

China Daily, China's state-owned newspaper, released a satirical cartoon via its Twitter account on May 10, 2021, suggesting that "western media lacks credibility".

The account subsequently shared a promotional video on sightseeing in China, which showed a natural landscape with the hashtag “#ChineGlamour”. However, German and French TV station #ARTE(Association Relative à la Télévision Européenne) discovered that the landscape image was taken by a travel blogger, and was in fact recorded in #Brienz, Switzerland. The image is then flipped horizontally, and the blogger's watermark cropped out.

The blogger criticised China Daily’s #plagiarism, and mocked them for promoting China with a stolen picture of Switzerland. China Daily had since deleted the video without apologies.

Regina Ip Criticised APEC having "Unfair Condition" that Beijing has to Decide whether to Attend with this Insult

The #WashingtonPost reported earlier that the #US #DepartmentofState denied #JohnLee to enter the US border for the #APEC summit. Yet, the Hong Kong government can still send other senior officials to participate.

The pro-establishment camp criticised the US's practice with statements and journals yesterday. Among them, #ReginaIp, the convenor of the Executive Council, wrote in #ChinaDaily that the APEC summit has an "unknown future" because of John Lee. She also questioned whether it is worthwhile for the government to send another official to attend if the ban is "harmful and unreasonable". She pointed out that the Chinese "highest leader" should decide whether he should accept "the insult".

Besides, #TaKungPao quoted statements from various politicians in a report, including #MargaretChan from #CPPCC, #KingsleyWong from #HKFTU and #BraveChan from #DAB.

Note:
CPPCC refers to Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference
HKFTU refers to Hong Kong Federation of Trade Union
DAB refers to Democratic Alliance for the Betterment and Progress of Hong Kong
