  2. condemn Russia's invasion of Ukraine? hehe why when Ukraine started by bombing there own in donbas was shown on CNN Muhammed
    proper incompetent wannabe entertainer journalist

  3. Xi is definitely watching. Taiwan invasion might not be feasible now, but he is still a threat to invade and the US knows it. Lots of learning from observing Ukraine.

  6. Politics is not black and white. It’s easy for us viewers and general public to ask “do you condemn”.
    Please just answer “yes or no”.

    But in reality, you can’t expect China to say they condemn. Even though we all know everywhere everyone has a double standard. Look at Israel and Palestine. Have you heard any US pressing to condemn the conduct of Israel government and military?

  7. Unless Al Jazeera is talking about Palestine it is absolutely as bad as all of the rest of the hacks – they serve the US empire, pushing all of the same anti China and Russia propaganda.

  8. I can live with the truth, he has to live with the lie. The lie keeps him fed but it will eat him up inside until there is nothing left.

  10. it does not matter what the other person is saying, at least let someone complete his sentence, but continuously interrupting and barking like a dog, I don't know who even gave him a job. you can't compare US invasion of Iraq to the Russian invasion of ukraine. because US invaded Iraq for oil and to destabilize the region to protect isreal. and Russia invaded ukraine because they were going to be a part of the organization(NATO) which destroyed the Middle East and some African countries. russia can never let such kind of force near its borders.

  15. Was al-Jazeera 'requested' to be more 'balanced' in their coverage or was it voluntary? 😂

    Anyway, would condemning Russia means condemning Palestinians for taking up arms when their continuous efforts in diplomacy has failed, due to false promises, deception and stonewalling by the other side? 🤔

  22. America invasion of Iraq Syria Afghanistan Vietnam is a choice make by American politician Russia invasion of Ukraine is a self-defense a threat posed by NATO

  24. How about your bull&t west not condemn poor Palestine people dying, West if have balls go and fight openly to Russia instead using Ukraine as proxy.

  25. This was a waste of time. This Mehdi guy was clearly not listening. He was manipulating Victor in order to advance a narrative. He is just another version of Piers Morgan!

  29. Is the idea of Journalism about forcing your Guests to say the words you want them to say and agree on a particular opinion, or is it about asking questions and getting your Guests' views and perspectives? There's nothing different from this and the usual CNN and BBC rambling.

  30. Mehdi seems too much arrogant rude here while forgetting China is helping Palastine aswell. STOP INTERRUPTING WHILE THE OTHER PERSON IS SPEAKING MEHDI .. ITS IRRITATING ..

  31. I love China, asking the right questions. What does condemnations do without action? and china has been acting in their own capacity.

    He’s saying looking at history and western hegemony and it’s after math.

    You will not catch the Chinese in simple sound bites
