The so-called peace plan is like if China discovered the cure to cancer. It could be the best most fair peace plan ever. The West would be working against it because they wouldn't be getting the credit. You think the West would give China that kind of stature?
Of course, but how would it look to the Global South if the west turn down an earnest peace proposal? Who's the superpower actually working towards peace?
From the article
Did they use the worst negotiators in the western world?
“First we’re going to blame you for interfering in elections, then we’re going to say you’re spying on us all time using cell phone equipment, next we sanction your companies and ban exports of semiconductor manufacturing equipment, finally we’re going to blame you for flying a balloon and some UFO stuff. All you have to do is not sell weapons to Russia!”
“… okay… what do we get then?”
“What? You want something in return?? Our gratitude is not enough? The nerve!”

That's not enough. All you have to do is look at the countries and people that have no history with China but they hate China. They hate China because they believe the West's narrative on China. The US and West go to war all the time yet China is looked upon as the military aggressor. If the West goes against China's proposal, is China going to go out of their way to defend it as much as the West will attack it? Beijing doesn't do that when the US vilifies China. Chinese responses to things sound so measured and canned because they're mindful they have to come across as neutral as possible.
