China has said it perfectly regarding the U.S. position in Ukraine.
In February, the U.S. took a stand against the elected President and his reactions to (CIA led) demonstrators. They yelled and screamed that any action against the demonstrators for 'Freedom' was inhumane and would not be tolerated. The U.S. said the elected President, Yanukovych was 'suppressing Democracy' with his actions to stop the protests.
Now the protesters are to be stopped by any means possible in the U.S. eyes, because they are not 'democracy' protests, but the protesters are terrorists who are disrupting the Ukraine installed government.
China doesn't stop there. They say, which they have said in the past. The U.S. 'spreads' democracy and takes over countries for 'freedom' in places they want the resources.
Recent articles from China's official government news website about the U.S. and Ukraine, include
China blaming the U.S. for the Ukraine crisis,
From the articles coming out of China, it is obvious where they really stand on the Ukraine position. They stand with Russia.
Portions from article:
Kiev authorities on Tuesday launched an "anti-terrorist operation" against "pro-Russian"armed forces in the eastern city Kramatorsk, opening a Pandora's box of the Ukrainian army bloodily quelling the pro-Russian faction.
The Tuesday crushing of rebellions by the new Kiev administration shares a similarity with the crackdown on protesters who occupied the parliament in February. However, when then Ukrainian president Viktor Yanukovych commanded the crackdown on demonstrators, he was overwhelmed by Western denunciations and threats since the order was considered "bloody" and "inhumane."
On the contrary, Western public opinion has given sympathy and comprehension to Kiev's military operation against eastern rebels. Yanukovych was "suppressing democracy," while the acting Kiev authorities are believed to have carried out their legitimate State rights.
The West is able to define various global conflicts due to the strength of its soft power. Things are judged based on the West's own interests rather than the facts. That's why the crack downs in Ukraine in February and on Tuesday have gained sharply different Western comments. Such double standards have been widely used by the West. Turbulence, if occurring in countries that have a tense relationship with the West, are considered a"democratic revolution," but if the same situation happens in highly pro-Western countries, protesters will be viewed as radicals.
Because Western interests have penetrated the whole global discourse power system,terms such as "democracy" and "human rights" are added to the mix when the West tries to impose its will on the world. Developing countries face an arduous task to restore the original meaning of these terms.
The "democratic revolution" supported by the West has rarely brought about prosperity and stability over the past two decades. The future of those revolutionary countries is unclear. But one certain thing is that the "democratic revolution" has cleared away obstacles that prevent the West from realizing its geopolitical interests. After the disintegration of the Soviet Union, Ukraine has evolved into the forefront of geopolitical competition between the West and Russia. We can only understand what's going on in Ukraine from the perspective of geopolitics.
The world's eyes are open to what the U.S. is doing and how they operate. The people of the world are aware of the U.S. tactics along with the governments. Yet the citizens of the U.S. are still blind to what the U.S. is really about.
The U.S. starts wars for various reasons and those reasons are never about Democracy and Freedom for the People! The U.S. is the most inhumane country in the world because of those in control.
China even said the U.S. was the biggest violator of human rights in the world, through their study.
