In a heated segment on global geopolitics, a panelist strongly defends China’s perspective on the changing world order. The speaker argues that Beijing rejects the historical legacy of ‘raping, robbing and pillaging’ associated with colonialism, aiming instead for a multipolar world focused on security and development. Dismissing the notion of a ‘G2’ partnership with the US, the speaker asserts that China values coexistence over ideology. The discussion turns confrontational when a co-panelist, referred to as Adele, suggests that the US and China share interests rather than Western liberal values. The first speaker interrupts, rebuking her by stating, ‘Your brief acquaintance with China and your age does not make you appropriate for making judgments.’ The exchange highlights the deep ideological divide between Eastern and Western narratives.
