'The U.S. has no credibility to hold the moral high ground,' a Global Times editorial claimed in response to a statement by Secretary of State Mike Pompeo.
—which often presents the more bellicose strain of thought from within the ruling Communist Party—suggested Pompeo's human rights advocacy was merely part of America's strategy to defeat China in the ever-expanding trade war between the two mammoth economies.
The article suggested that any U.S. promotion of human rights is inherently hypocritical given the effects of the trade war, whichsaid is designed to"deprive China of its continued development and gains for its own benefit." "The Trump administration always threatens to 'replace the labor force in China with that in the U.S.,' or in Southeast Asia," the article continued."They celebrate every sign that could be interpreted as economic downturn in China. Is that sincere compassion for Chinese human rights?
