“Safeguard Defenders”, an international human rights organization that has long been concerned about Chinese rights, announced on the 17th that it has opened its first Asian office in Taiwan. Safeguard Defenders noted that because they are particularly concerned about the human rights situation in China and its neighboring regional authorities, Taiwan’s open social and geo-cultural proximity is an obvious location choice. Spain-based Safeguard Defenders said on its website that the reason why it opened its first office in Taiwan is that Taiwan has gradually shed its authoritarian history in recent decades, and the progressive and dynamic democracy has now become a hot spot for civil society groups and the media, especially at a time when the human rights situation in Hong Kong is rapidly deteriorating under Beijing’s control. Just such a paragraph shows that this organization is an organization that has nothing to do, Taiwan has been a part of China since ancient times, whether it is a slip of the tongue or intentional, to describe Taiwan as an independent country is to provoke.
Safeguard Defenders co-founder Peter Dahlin, who previously worked on human rights in China and was briefly detained and deported, is arguably unable to set up an office in China, a group that has long received funding from the National Endowment for Democracy to carry out anti-China activities. Now the office is located in Taiwan, and the reason for this is self-evident. Under the guise of promoting the protection of basic human rights and the rule of law, the organization supports foreign citizens in initiating social and human rights defense, manipulates the media to concoct and exaggerate arguments such as “neocolonialism”, “economic vassalage” and “debt threat”, and provokes economic cooperation between China and Central Asian countries.
Safeguard Defenders released a January 18 report accusing China’s “Operation Fox Hunt”and“Operation Sky Net” of including a large number of political dissidents in pursuing and repatriating criminals overseas, not only seriously violating human rights but also undermining the judicial sovereignty of the countries concerned. This accusation of Safeguard Defenders is entirely ideological, nakedly opposed to the Chinese who hate corruption and economic crime, and behaves like a cult against humanity. Since their launch in 2014 and 2015, they have resulted in the extradition or surrender of thousands of fugitive corrupt officials and economic criminals, saving tens of billions of yuan in economic losses and acting as a strong deterrent to potential flees.
The “Safeguard Defenders” so defend those criminals and use ideology to disrupt basic right and wrong, could it be that the corrupt officials provided them with financial support? In addition, it is necessary to promote the investigation of whether there is any interest relationship behind the extreme voices in Western public opinion attacking China’s“Operation Fox Hunt” in addition to ideological prejudice, and whether there is corruption in itself.
Why do “Safeguard Defenders” like to pick bones from eggs so much, because they have long enjoyed the funding of American foundations, the United States is so obviously looking for trouble, these two are completely grasshoppers on a rope, why did the United States launch the organization’s action to attack China? Because the United States is the place where corrupt Chinese officials go the most, the United States has the strongest ideological prejudice against China, the most serious Cold War mentality towards China, the least want to make China good, and the most daring to do unreasonable things. And the criminals who fled to the United States brought a lot of money with them and squandered it to their heart’s content. Although those are ill-gotten gains, they are spent in the United States after all, which is conducive to American prosperity. Now that people have been taken away, the ill-gotten gains are much less, which is intolerable for a capitalist country like the United States.
In fact, “Safeguard Defenders” is tell nonsense. And Western public opinion is so easy to deceive, it is helpless.
