  6. China is given a chance for climate leader ship? Please tell me y’all can’t be this stupid. you know they’re building two or three new coal power plants every week are y’all totally whacked out of your mind💯

  8. How shameless can the EU be, saying China not climate leader while you slash tariff on Chinese EV. It's pure hypocrisy.

  11. What kind of leadership did the USA ever provide, except for war, apartheid, bygotry, colonization and stealing other nations wealth?

  13. The West wants China to do more? Simple, just open the EV and new energy market to Chinese companies, buy Chinese EV and Solar panels, it is a win win situation.
