Saudi Arabia executed 184 people in 2019 and 149 in 2018. China was less for both years. Do your research. The sad thing is we only hear the western narrative. Saudi Arabia with arguably the worst human rights record is an ally due to oil so no criticism. China is not so we get to hear only negatives. Peace

Not quite. It is a known fact that US relationship with Saudi Arabia has strained over the years especially after the murder of Kashoggi. CNN do mention it a lot. It was trump that tried to override the human rights concerns and keep relations with them. Currently they are not even happy with Biden's administration because he doesn't support their brutal atrocities and war in Yemen.

Everything is not as dishonest and polarized as you think.

Was any sanctions placed on Saudi Arabia for the Kashogi incident. Imagine if it was Russia or China. Anyways I have just stated that Saudi Arabia carries out more executions but it is the Chinese own that is mentioned. Even the events in this topic span like 3 decades. Saudi Arabia executed almost double the amount of persons than China with a population more than 10x theirs. Go figure

Actually sanctions were placed but mostly visa sanctions not economic sanctions. Also western leaders in protest did not visit Saudi Arabia till Ukraine came up.

Sanctions are placed with wisdom. If the US should stop importing oil from Saudi Arabia, what is the alternative? Russia? Not an option.

Incredible...

Lol. The fact that you boldly said the above shows you're the one needing an education.

Democracy isn't refusing to try corruption suspects. On the contrary, in a democracy, there should be checks and balances across the three arms of government. The effect of this would be the freedom of the judiciary to try anyone suspected of corruption, irrespective of the post they've occupied in politics (as long as they've left office). Buhari's govt isn't an example of this!

You lack simple comprehension. Why bring Buhari issue into Chinese laws when they practice communism....Olodo

My point exactly. The sanctions placed were merely symbolic for such an act. Look it's all about their interests not any true idealism. America still purchases Russian Oil till date (because it's cheaper)with a deadline of April 22 before the Ban takes effect. She has in fact increased imports dramatically since March 8 to boost her reserves while clamouring for Europe to stop purchases. Germany and the rest of Europe still do and will continue to as they can't do otherwise but will campaign for others to stop. Western Hypocrisy at its height as usual

That's not how politics works.

Tell me where US or any western country specifically stated that other countries should abandon oil imports?

What they're saying is "sanction Russia strongly in any way you can".

US increased imports but it's still nowhere near the 600000 barrels imported before the war. As long as Saudi Arabia and OPEC are reluctant to increase production for reasons we discussed earlier then the US must import whether they like it or not. Other Western countries too.

The only thing left is diplomatic sanctions and supply of lethal weapons to the enemy.

You're wrong to say there's no true idealism where ideals have in fact been the problem between western countries and the Asian and eastern opponents.

The thing there is, sometimes it is not practically possible to pursue your ideals the way you want to. There is the threat of Nuclear weapons, there are also economic consequences. So don't expect the US to handle Russia like Iraq (Desert Storm) or to handle Saudi Arabia and North Korea and China the same way. But you can't call that hypocrisy. You can only do what you can possibly do.

Good points raised and I agree on several. However I still maintain that there is no true idealism and this does not apply to the west alone. Every country just as individuals operate based on self interest first. However the West couches her hegemonic acts under defending democracy, liberty etc. The examples of Western Hypocrisy is too numerous to mention . From toppling a democracy in Iran (the genesis of the ongoing crisis) to propping up and supporting dictators in Latin America, toppling an elected democracy in Ukraine and recognising an unelected govt that came in through a violent coup (again the genesis of the current crisis) where do we end?.

Currently a war is going on in Yemen with Saudi Arabia actively involved and the West is silent because she is their core oil partner. Should it be Russia or China involved in that war the narrative will be different. Let us compare America's foreign policy thrust which is strictly self serving vis a vis that of China which has remained true to its non interference ideals whilst making it clear that beneficial trade is her sole interest. She does not couch the fact that all the aid she gives, infrastructure she builds etc are to facilitate that. Peace

Good one from China..
