Trump's call for a protest crackdown has been a boon for Chinese propaganda
Analysis by CNN's James Griffiths
Protesters running amok. Innocent citizens under siege. Outside actors engaging in terrorist acts. Police struggling to maintain control and in desperate need of reinforcements.
<a href=https://kra18-at.cc>kraken7</a>
That was how Chinese state media portrayed anti-government protests in Hong Kong last year, dismissing calls for greater democracy and an investigation into police brutality by focusing on individual acts of violence and property damage.
<a href=https://kra18-at.cc>kra9.at</a>
Throughout the protests, the US was consistent in its support of people’s right to take to the streets and have their voice heard. Facing widespread unrest and public anger at home in the wake of the death of George Floyd, the reaction from US President Donald Trump appeared markedly different.
<a href=https://kra18-at.cc>kra23.gl</a>
On Monday, Trump called for the military to be deployed to “dominate” protesters, and demanded states do more to stem “acts of domestic terror.”
<a href=https://kra18-at.cc>kra14.cc</a>
The irony has not been lost on Beijing, which on Thursday marks (or rather doesn’t, the date is highly censored) its own military crackdown on anti-government protesters on June 4, 1989.
<a href=https://kra18-at.cc>kra15</a>
“Washington’s promise of equality and justice for all in the country has remained hollow at best,” state news agency Xinhua said in a commentary titled “The coming suffocation of the American dream.”
“Amid the ongoing anti-racism protests in the country, decision-makers in Washington, instead of trying to sooth the pain and anger of the public, have been fanning the flames, calling protesters ‘THUGS,’ and threatening them with ‘the most vicious dogs, and most ominous weapons,” the commentary said.

China Daily, a state-backed newspaper, noted that “The US, after the killing of Floyd, seems to be on fire, and troops have been mobilized to subdue angry demonstrators.”
“This is certainly not what the world expects to see in a country that is the world’s sole superpower,” it added. “But that sadly is the reality of the US.”
This rhetoric isn’t just embarrassing for Washington, it’s also a sign of how the US may find its influence damaged by a perceived hypocrisy over human rights at home and abroad.
Earlier today, Hong Kong’s leader Carrie Lam pointed to the unrest in the US as evidence of Washington’s “double standards.”
“They attach great importance to the national security of their country, but look at our national security through tinted spectacles, especially the current situation in Hong Kong,” she added.
The ability of Washington to influence Beijing’s position on Hong Kong – which is in part founded on fear of outside influence in the city – was already severely limited. The Trump administration’s reaction to protests at home may have hurt its position even further. |

BANGKOK, Nov 9 (Reuters) - More than 800 leading Thai economists, including four
former governors of the Bank of Thailand, warned on Saturday
of political interference in selecting the central bank's board chairman, saying it could damage long-term economic stability.
The government's nomination of former Finance Minister Kittirat na Ranong, a ruling
party loyalist and staunch critic of BOT Governor Sethaput Suthiwartnarueput,
has sparked concerns over the central bank's independence.
Since taking office last year, the Pheu Thai-led government, now under Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra,
has been at loggerheads with the BOT, pressuring the central bank to cut interest rates
in the Southeast Asian nation and raise its inflation target.
The BOT unexpectedly cut rates last month for the first time since 2020.
Should the BOT "carry out the wishes of the political group, then it would tarnish the credibility of the central bank, which must maintain a strong economic stability for the country in the long term," the 830
economists said in a statement.
The group has previously expressed concern over having a candidate
with close political connections who they say has shown an intention to interfere in BOT monetary policy decisions.
Government spokesman Jirayu Houngsub declined to comment on the
statement. Kittirat did not immediately respond to
a request for comment.
The independent committee selecting the board chairman meets on Monday after delaying its decision this week, saying it needed more time to "consider all aspects of information"
amid the tension between the central bank and the
government.
The board chairman is not involved in rate decisions but heads the panel that chooses policy committee
members. The chair will also be involved in selecting the next BOT governor when Sethaput's term ends in September 2025.
There are two other candidates for the role - a former permanent secretary of
energy and a former university dean - who were nominated by BOT.
Thai law allows the government to nominate one candidate for
every two central bank nominees.
Once the seven-member selection committee picks a chairman, it decision requires the approval of
the finance minister, the cabinet and Thailand's
king.
