Snip:

On January 3, the United States blatantly launched large-scale military strikes against Venezuela, forcefully seized Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro and his wife, and took them out of the country. It claimed that it would “run” Venezuela and even did not rule out launching a second round of military operations on an even larger scale. China is deeply shocked by and strongly condemns the unilateral, illegal, and bullying acts by the United States.

[…]

Venezuela is an independent sovereign state with every right to defend its sovereignty and national dignity. Countries in Latin America and the Caribbean are important forces in maintaining world peace and stability and promoting global development and prosperity, and they have every right to independently choose their development paths and partners.

No country can act as the world’s police, nor can any country presume to be the international judge. China firmly supports the Government and people of Venezuela in safeguarding their sovereignty, security, and legitimate rights and interests. We firmly support regional countries in upholding the status of Latin America and the Caribbean as a zone of peace.

We demand that the United States change its course, cease its bullying and coercive practices, and develop relations and cooperation with regional countries on the basis of mutual respect, equality, and non-interference in internal affairs. China stands ready to work with regional countries and the international community to strengthen solidarity and cooperation, uphold fairness and justice, and jointly safeguard peace and stability in Latin America and the Caribbean.

    Socialism in One Country doesn’t mean it’s cool or desired to ignore the rest of the world. It’s not that exporting ideology and support abroad is bad in all cases, or that it is inherently negative.

    It is that the revolution needs to be build and nurtured at home, before such things can be done. It’s about stabilizing the gains, so you don’t lose everything. China has been growing steadily stronger for decades. They are the economic hegemon of the world. This is not the same situation that Stalin and Trotsky split over. Not at all.
