Not to my knowledge, but I’m sure they’d like to and don’t recognize Taiwan as separate from China.

Call me crazy, but that doesn't feel as bad as

  • invading Ukraine
  • invading Iraq twice, bombing Iran, Libya, Somalia, Yemen, bombing Yugoslavia, arming a genocide in Guatemala, invading Afghanistan, invading Vietnam, bombing Cambodia and Laos, funding a genocide in Indonesia, funding a genocide in East Timor, funding a genocide in Gaza
  • invading all your neighbors all the time

Third one is Israel, got lazy.

You got also lazy with Russia. That list should have been as long as the US one

Feel free to extend it, I'll edit the comment. Ideally in a pithy format with a pure focus on foreign interference like the US one.

invading Poland, invading Finland, occupying the Baltic states, crushing the Hungarian Revolution, invading Czechoslovakia, invading Afghanistan, arming the Derg regime in Ethiopia, funding proxy wars in Angola and Mozambique, intervening in Moldova, intervening in Tajikistan, bombing Chechnya, invading Georgia, invading Ukraine, funding separatists in the Donbas, bombing Syria, arming militias in Libya, funding mercenaries in the Central African Republic, funding mercenaries in Mali

is it ok?

Yeah, they just focus on the countries next to them mostly (and even then there's been sponsored shit stirring in Africa, too)

I definitely think you’re right in that there are degrees to the evil these countries are perpetrating on the innocent.

I feel like the OP was just saying fuck X country who does evil, which is far from the complete list, haha.

If that the case let's look who vote with evil things in the UN it's a clear record where countries stand. This will put UK, France, Belgium, Germany, Canada, Australia, India, Argentina at the top of the list.

Well, China didn't invade anyone in the last decade because they've already annexed the territories they wanted. It's not like Uyghurs and Tibetans stopped getting genocided because their territories are already internationally recognised as part of the PRC.

And they do fund multiple conflicts outside of their own country, like the aforementioned invasion of Ukraine.

Doesnt happen. There were cases of violence but it wasnt genocide.
