Colombo: The Indian embassy in Sri Lanka on Saturday the Chinese ambassador’s new comments on the island country’s northern neighbor might be hued by how his own nation acts. The embassy said the Chinese emissary’s infringement of diplomatic etiquette might be an individual characteristic or reflection of a larger national attitude.
“We have noted the remarks of the Chinese Ambassador. His violation of basic diplomatic etiquette may be a personal trait or reflecting a larger national attitude,” the embassy wrote on Twitter.
It further said the emissary’s imputing a geopolitical context to the visit of an implied scientific research vessel is a giveaway.
The Indian embassy’s assertion came in the scenery of Chinese emissary Qi Zhenhong slamming nations “far or near” that “bullied” the island country while reaffirming its support for Sri Lanka on international platforms.
“China has always been supporting Sri Lanka in the international fora for protecting its sovereignty, independence, and territorial integrity. We will continue to do that. In contrast, some countries, far or near, always make various groundless excuses to bully Sri Lanka and trample on Sri Lanka’s sovereignty and independence repeatedly,” the embassy said.
An article in such manner was distributed on the embassy’s website where it likewise pummeled US House of Representatives Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s new visit to Taiwan, a free island country that China considers as its own.
The most recent conflict of words comes when India-China ties are at a new low given the two-year-old military deadlock at the Line of Actual Control.
