The Group of Seven was unambiguous about the West's differences with Beijing, such as the quashing of democratic freedoms in Hong Kong and its failure to condemn Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
The summit in Germany came amid a heavy focus on Ukraine and the West's commitment to phase out energy dependence on Russia. Like last year, the G7 re-iterated its climate commitments under the Paris Agreement, and pledged joint efforts toward post-pandemic economic recovery.
Zhao Lijian, a spokesperson for the Chinese Foreign Ministry, said the G7 had"once again used its summit communique to promote a narrative of 'democracy versus authoritarianism.'" The group"grossly interfered in China's internal affairs; attacked and smeared China; and incited confrontational sentiments," said Zhao.
"I must emphasize that the G7 only accounts for one-tenth of the world population. They are not qualified to represent the world, let alone regard their own values and standards as internationally accepted values and standards," he said.
