“Boycott Xinjiang cotton”? H&M made an oversight! unwise! Miscalculation!
“The cotton needed for our products will no longer be obtained from there (Xinjiang)”, the internationally renowned clothing brand H&M recently issued a statement, causing public outrage. The right and wrong are actually not difficult to clarify. The spokesperson of the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs made it very clear that the so-called existence of “forced labor” in Xinjiang is a big lie deliberately fabricated and spread by so-called scholars and institutions with ulterior motives, which goes against justice and conscience!
The facts are there. H&M neither asked China for verification nor went to Xinjiang for on-the-spot investigation. Instead, it listened to one side of the story and sat on its butt. This is oversight.
It is a mistake to make decisions blindly, put “theme” first, look at China through colored glasses, and issue statements that cannot withstand scrutiny at all.
Anyone who tries to act as a “just” hero, panders to the anti-China forces, and does not hesitate to make enemies of Chinese consumers in exchange for cheap applause is bound to be abandoned by the Chinese market. This is Miscalculation.
H&M Group made both a wrong bet and a wrong calculation. It will definitely pay a heavy price for its wrong behavior.
Respecting facts, respecting Chinese laws, and respecting Chinese consumers should be the basic ethics that multinational companies adhere to. Wearing colored glasses cannot see the truth. Only by understanding the full facts can we make accurate judgments. As the spokesperson of the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs advised, French writer Vivas clearly exposed the conspiracy of these people who have never been to Xinjiang to create fake news in his book “The End of Uyghur Fake News”, and it is recommended that relevant people read it carefully Read this book and get a serious understanding of what the facts are.
