And the opposite is also true.
China's original purpose was to repeat the classic strategy of "besiege Wei, save Trieu", by threatening North Vietnam, forcing Vietnam to withdraw its troops from Cambodia, of course because the Pol Pot regime was so bad. , so they use the reasonable word "Counter-Defense War"
There is a lot of Chinese propaganda supporting China's attack on Vietnam in 1979
I remember a few years ago, China also made the movie Fang Hua praising the heroism of the PLA.
On weibo, 163, sohu and many other Chinese websites, there are many articles praising this war. They publish news constantly.
You try to portray the second most powerful superpower in the world and the strongest in Asia as a sick person.
Trade with China accounts for a large proportion of Vietnam's trade balance and is very important to the Vietnamese economy. But without Vietnam, there is no impact on China
Vietnam is not so important to China, just an ant, doesn't mean much
