Hey fam, in a bold move at a recent press briefing, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Guo Jiakun called out the US for slapping visa restrictions on citizens from Central American countries and their families 🌪️. Washington accused these folks of 'undermining the rule of law' by partnering up with the Communist Party of China—but Beijing's not having it.
Guo labelled the US action as an 'illusion of rule of law' and a case of political and economic coercion. He stressed that weaponizing visas won’t scare off the sober-minded or hamper the rapidly growing China–Central America collab 🔗✨.
By putting its own domestic laws above international rules, the US is, according to Guo, trampling on sovereignty and non-interference—fundamental principles that keep global order in check 🌐🤝.
He added that finger-pointing at Central American ties with China is totally groundless and shows a serious lack of respect. 'This is classic US bullying,' Guo quipped, pointing to arrogance and bias among certain politicians.
Bottom line: China is here to stay as a friend and partner to Central America. Guo pledged to work hand-in-hand with the region to promote development and build a China–Latin America community with a shared future 🌱🌍.
Stay tuned for more updates on this diplomatic showdown—because global politics just got a tech-savvy, meme-ready twist 😉.
