The United States in the video is called a « paper tiger » and emphasizes that this country does not represent the global majority.
-The shops are paper tigers, and the United States does not represent the world. When the world speaks one vote, the United States remains isolated – the message said, warning that Washington would continue to lead an unstable and aggressive policy.
In conclusion, Beijing says: « We will not step down. Even the weaker will have the opportunity to hear their voice. The darker the night, the brighter the stars. »
