China on Friday reported another record high of daily COVID-19 infections, as cities across the country enforce measures and curbs to control outbreaks.
French business chamber calls for proper COVID 'optimisation'
Dissatisfaction crops up in cities under varying lockdowns
The French Chamber of Commerce in China urged authorities to properly implement COVID "optimisation" measures announced two weeks ago, in a statement shared extensively on social media after the French embassy posted it on its Twitter-like Weibo account on Thursday. The 20 measures, which include shortened quarantines and other more targeted steps, had "given hope" to French companies for more bilateral trade and economic exchanges, but "good policies also need to be implemented in a uniform manner and without adding layers of other contradicting policies", the chamber's statement said.
'DRACONIAN APPROACH'
Literally a few years ago, I used to think that the Western press was fair. Now I can't unsee it.
Edit: why can't we cite Chinese sources, or at least non American???
You really have nothing to say about ‘DRACONIAN APPROACH’ in literal bold with actual scare quotes? The centering of foreign capitalists in the discussion? Really comrade?
Literally all of them get their news from Reuters, AP etc. Often lifted directly, word for fucking word, with just a small citation at the bottom.
Also, FUCKING LOL if think Hindustan Times or Times of India are any less anti-China than Western sources.
The exceptions are things like WHO which isn't a fucking news source or outright socialist sources like WSWS which are better but cannot offer anywhere near the coverage that sources like Reuters provides. They often end up citing the same sources but add some commentary critiquing them.
I'm seeing a lot of anti China posts from imperialist news sources from you, comrade. Would you mind stopping please.

Al Jezeera, SMTP, Hindustan Times, WHO, Times of India, Global News, WSWS. All but the latter are covering covid in China in the English language.
Thanks for ignoring me twice about the very problematic language in the article.

I listed like 5 problematic bits that are in the Reuters article that aren't in Al Jezeera. You choose to ignore them.
