This is Xinhua‘s take on Darfur, via the English version of the People’s Daily:
A major Sudanese English-language newspaper on Sunday hailed China’s stance on the issue related to Sudan’s western region of Darfur and solid Sudan-China relations.
Sudan Vision, the largest English-language daily in terms of circulation, ran an editorial in both English and Chinese, the first of its kind by a newspaper in Sudan, on the day China’s envoy for Darfur, Liu Guijin, arrived in the African nation on a four-day visit.
“Indeed, Chinese leadership and media refused to trail behind Western fabrications on Darfur, and have instead firmly stood in the face of pressures put on it because it is fully aware of Western attempts to capitalize on the African problem to pass its own agendas which did not change since the colonial era,” the independent daily said in the editorial.
Xinhua is also lauding the remarks of an Egyptian official, who called China’s role in the region “transparent and honest.”
