The spokesman for communist China on Friday condemned the United States and Canada for their historical treatment of indigenous people.

“The U.S. is in no position to wield human rights as a stick around the world,” the spokesman said. “It needs to reflect upon and redress its own human rights crimes including genocide, racial discrimination, and forced labor. The genocide committed by the U.S. on American Indians is a publicly recognized fact. Even today, American Indians remain an ‘invisible’ community and a ‘disapproving minority.'”

“According to U.S. media reports, the living space of Native Americans has been seriously squeezed and they live in harsh conditions. About a quarter of Navajo women and some infants had high levels of radioactive substance in their systems as a result of mining for U.S. weaponry on their reservation,” the spokesman continued.

“American Indians born today have a life expectancy that is 5.5 years less than the national average,” the communist mouthpiece went on. “In the U.S., ethnic minorities, indigenous peoples, refugees, and immigrants are constantly threatened by discrimination, hate speeches, and xenophobia [sic] acts, while white supremacy remains a tumor in American society. The international community will be watching to see whether and how the U.S. will seriously review and redress its deplorable human rights record.”

The spokesman also scolded Canada, which has recently been roiled by protests and vandalism following the discovery of unmarked indigenous graves at sites where the Catholic Church used to run residential schools with government funding during the 19th and early 20th centuries.

As The Daily Wire reported, vandals spent Canada Day on Thursday protesting the graves by ripping down statues of Queens Victoria and Elizabeth II outside the Manitoba Legislature in Winnipeg while police looked on.

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau also recently demanded Pope Francis fly to Canada to apologize on Canadian soil for the unmarked graves.

Celebrations of Canada Day, the holiday that marks the Dominion of Canada’s establishment in 1867, were reportedly “muted” this year after the revelation of the graves, according to the New York Post.

“I’ve suggested the church arsons & the tearing down of statues may be the work of Antifa, tax-funded ‘anti-hate’ groups, or undercover cops,” Rebel News journalist Ezra Levant speculated. “But we can’t discount the possibility that they’re orchestrated by Communist China. They have the means, the motive & the opportunity.”

China faces international scrutiny for its alleged treatment of Uyghur Muslims and other minorities.
