Referring to an article on Yahoo News, this piece criticizes the reality of China’s so-called “mask diplomacy.” It discusses how China received protective clothing and masks from the EU and Japan, yet reportedly charged Italy and sent defective test kits to Spain and substandard masks to the Netherlands, revealing the true nature of the Chinese state.

Italy was charged money, while Spain returned 50,000 test kits, among the ventilators, masks, gloves, and other items it had purchased for about 51.4 billion yen, because there were problems with them.
The Netherlands also found that 600,000 masks were.
The following is from an article published on Yahoo News.
The reporter seems to be a former Sankei Shimbun reporter who now lives in Britain.
China’s “mask diplomacy.”
The preceding text is omitted.
In February, the European Commission, the administrative executive body of the European Union, EU, sent more than 56 tons of protective clothing and masks to China.
In return, it was reported that China donated to Italy two million surgical masks, 200,000 N95 masks, 50,000 test kits, and 1,000 ventilators.
However, according to some reports, Italy was charged money, while Spain returned 50,000 test kits, among the ventilators, masks, gloves, and other items it had purchased for about 51.4 billion yen, because there were problems with them.
It is also said that the Netherlands sent back 600,000 masks because they did not meet standards.
A similar article was also published in Shukan Shincho about two weeks ago.
In the early days after the outbreak of the Wuhan virus, a city and a hospital in Hokkaido sent hundreds of thousands of masks and other items to China free of charge.
However, when China recently sent masks and other items, calling them a gesture of thanks, it not only charged money for them, but they were also defective products.
China, as a country, truly is.
