FACT CHECK: How China Misrepresented US Flood Aid to Pakistan | VOA News
Показать описание
Pakistan continues to reel from unprecedented flooding, which killed more than 1,600 people this year, displaced millions, ravaged crops, damaged nearly 2 million homes, and wiped out roads and other infrastructure.
The World Bank has approved $2 billion in aid — the largest such pledge so far.
Amid Pakistan’s woes, U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken pushed for engagement with China on debt relief and restructuring “so that Pakistan can more quickly recover from the floods.”
That prompted a harsh response from Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Wang Wenbin.
“The Chinese government has provided 400 million RMB ($55.6 million) worth of humanitarian assistance, and China’s civil society has also lent a helping hand. We will continue to do our utmost to help the Pakistani people overcome the floods and rebuild their homes at an early date,” he said.
“China and Pakistan have had fruitful economic and financial cooperation. The Pakistani people know it best. Instead of passing unwarranted criticism against China-Pakistan cooperation, the U.S. side might as well do something real and beneficial for the people of Pakistan.”
Wang’s misleading deflection failed to address the issue Blinken raised about Pakistan’s debt to China. It also ignored the fact that the United States has provided Pakistan with much aid and assistance in the face of the natural disaster.
