China Depicts Australia As America's 'yes Man' In Latest Media Attack
조회 수 2 추천 수 0 2020.06.28 09:49:28Chinese state media has launched its latest attack on Australia with a cartoon depicting Scott Morrison as America's 'yes man'.
The cartoon, shared on social media by the Communist Party-owned China Daily newspaper on Monday, depicted Australia as a donkey riding into battle under the orders of the United States.
Accompanied by the caption 'yes man to one, liar to all', the cartoon references the 17th century story of Don Quixote.
In the book, Quixote orders his servant Sancho Panza to charge towards a windmill thinking it is his enemy despite it being an imaginary foe.
Cartoonist Luo Jie, who created the cartoon last week, depicts Quixote as the US and Panza as his loyal Australian steed attacking a windmill which represents China.
It comes as Mr Morrison prepares to champion free trade in getting thousands of Australians back to work after the coronavirus crisis amid mounting tensions with China.

While he will not name China - Australia's largest export partner - in Tuesday's speech, he will say Australia needs to search for new markets for its products.
Mr Morrison will insist that the country will continue to be an 'outward-looking', trading nation that 'will not retreat into the downward spiral of protectionism'.
'To the contrary, we will continue to be part of global supply chains that can deliver the prosperity we rely on to create jobs, support incomes and build our businesses,' he will say at the National Press Club in Canberra.

Australian Foreign Affairs Minister Marise Payne has also said her government is 'deeply concerned' at the proposals.

The article said: 'China will enjoy more room to fight back against Australia with countermeasures if Canberra supports Washington in a possible "new Cold War".
'It means Australia may feel more pain than the US.'
The editorial said President Trump was targeting China to distract from his handling of the coronavirus pandemic which has killed 97,000 Americans.
