China has proved it’s not a friend to count on
Outsiders — only in the literal sense since the world is now a global village — got embedded in the Kenya tragedy after ballots became bullets. In the face of causeless and atavistic bloodletting, irresponsible display of State might, misplaced aggression, retrogressive exhibition of prejudice and agile protesters, only irresponsible outsiders would have cheered, while proclaiming non-interference. China is one such prisoner of indifference. China is a ‘development partner’ no country should count on to take a position on the side of reason.
