I believe Xi Jinping should formally apologise on behalf of the CPC and the Chinese people for the Sino-Vietnam War and aggressive policy towards Vietnam on China’s part during the Sino-Soviet Split. I would think it could rebuild some trust from the Vietnamese people for closer cooperation between the two countries.

The Sino-Soviet split didn’t stop China from giving full support to North Vietnam in their war against American invasion, including but not limited to weapons that could equip 200 divisions and sending 300,000 PLA logistic and anti-air troops to North Vietnam. So the Sino-Soviet can’t explain the so-called China’s “aggressive policy towards Vietnam”. In addition, China didn’t have “aggressive policy” towards Laos and the DPRK even they were close to the USSR. Have you wondered why China singled out Vietnam? The reason is simple: after its unification Vietnam did shitty things such as massive ethnic cleansing of Chinese in Vietnam, invading Cambodia, etc. The Sino-Vietnam War happened after Vietnam invaded Cambodia. So no, neither Xi nor China will apologize to Vietnam.

Another “Pol Pot’s genocide” parroting that whitewashes American crimes. According to the World Bank’s data, during American invasion and bombing of Cambodia from 1970 to 1975, life expectancy in Cambodia dropped by 18 years. During Pol Pot’s rule of Cambodia from 1975 to 1978, life expectancy in Cambodia dropped by less than 4 years. Please note that the World Bank is an American tool, so the real data should be worse for America and better for Pol Pot than the current one shows. In short, the so-called Cambodian Genocide was done by American invaders instead of Pol Pot.

Let’s rephrase that to what it actually says: Pol Pot somehow managed to drop life expectancy even 4 more years after the Americans had already brought it 18 years down. It should have been easy to raise life expectancy above 23 but instead it fell to 19. Pol Pot was a disaster.

[deleted] - originally from r/GenZhouThis should also include reparations imo, to show its not just empty words.
Say building up infrastructure in areas most affected by the war or something similar.

u/JuicyJunior - originally from r/GenZhouJust because America committed a worse genocide in Cambodia doesn’t negate the genocide committed by Pol Pot
