China-West views of each other often ‘lost in translation’: Australian Ambassador to US Kevin Rudd

- Australia's Ambassador to the United States Kevin Rudd says misconceptions and misunderstandings can be hard to avoid when it comes to East-West relations. He stresses the importance of having a “more refined and calibrated view on both sides of this divide”. The former Australian prime minister speaks to CNA on the sidelines of the Milken Institute’s Global Conference in Los Angeles on navigating the delicate balance of international ties, and cultural nuances between the East and the West.

Please show the maps from both countries where the incident took place and the audience will know how ridiculous is Australian helicopter was at a position so close to China.
I recommend Emil Cosman's channel, which carries a report on this incident, with maps.

Another Humpty dumpty Santa clause🎅 from Trumpy administration!!
Only this time he's an Aussie bringing BS💩💩 instead of Gifts🎀🎁
Ever heard before the word- "white lies"!!
Western(white) politicians Lie more than liars lie nowadaysss!!!
What is the Australian helicopter doing so near China, was the Chinese war plane near by Australian border? 😂😂😂😂
That’s how they colonized first America, then australia …
The Australian helicopter radar spoiled and somehow lost its way to China
Exactly
Another HUMPTY dumpty Santa claus coming from the Trumpy administration!!
Only this time he's an AUSSIE🦘🦘
White people are Known to Say (20)- different things per dayy........
White (westerns) politician nowadays are Lying more than a liar lies.......
You got to love chinese bots 😂
don't u feel shame to say Chinese aggression while flying over Yellow see, S C Sea?
The US empire and its lapdogs have no shame. That's why they could pretend nothing serious is happening in that place in the Middle East, where hospitals are destroyed.
wait till china sends a few ships to like 50 n.miles of Perth and see what noise comes out. oh wait, it did happen back in 2022. hypocrites.
My first post was censored by UT. So here's a shortened comment: They have no shame.

Is Trump in the WH?
They flew at the Yellow Sea which is very close to China. When China express interest in Solomon Island which is about 2000 km from Australia, they said it is their close neighbor.
@johnliew. Yes, that's also what Emil Cosman pointed out in his channel.
Standard Western hypocrisy, rules for thee, not for me
They are looking for troubles.

'We do not have a problem with China’: Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim
Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim says if Western countries have problems with China
"they should not impose it upon us".
Mr Ibrahim insisted that Malaysia can be friends with both China and the West.
"We are an independent nation, we are fiercely independent, we do not want to be dictated by any force," Mr Ibrahim said.
"So it remains to be an important friend to the US and Europe and here in Australia. They should not preclude us from being friendly to one of our important neighbours, precisely China.
"If they have problems with China, they should not impose it upon us.
"We do not have a problem with China."
Aussies can learn from Malaysia.
Dear Kevin, do not put words into Singapore’s mouth. Their defense budget is not because of China. Singapore has no dispute with China on the South China Sea.
But both its neighbors do, and they can bring crushing pain in physically isolating S’pore from the rest of the world.
@@doujinflip LOL
not directly but a shift to the dotted line would impact Singapore greatly
@@krollpeter
Referring to its history on Wiki, there is no reason for China to shift it at all.
No dispute with China but vigilant of its relentless subversion and threats.
Rudd always uses his Chinese language knowledge to present himself as a Chinese expert, but in reality, he may not be better than Gordon Chang.
Is it really possible that he could be as bad as Gordon Chang?
😅
Well said
@@ToiChutGongWu He has proven to be. Or at least well on the way there.
@@ToiChutGongWuvery likely so, bought lock stock and barrel by MIC.
Out of western propaganda playbook.
Just as the United Front wants you to think.
Well said. We've reached the point where almost everything which comes out of Kevin Rudd's mouth is western propaganda with no basis in fact. If anyone bothers to read books on Marxism or Leninism, they'd quickly realize that China is not a "Marxist-Leninist" state. If they bothered to read Chinese diplomat statements and compare them with western statements, they'd quickly realize that "Wolf Warrior Diplomacy" was Chinese diplomats standing up for China and being nowhere near as offensive or childish as western diplomats are when discussing Chinese issues. Also, a simple reading of UNCLOS shows that the Australian military had no business in China's EEZ, and their mission was obviously not a "U.N. operation", as the U.N. had not given them a mandate to conduct any operations around North Korea.
no matter what Rudd said, AKUS is just another Anglo-Saxons allies.
Kevin Rudd is a huge disappointment! What a shame he has lost his moral compass and objectivity!
He's speaking from a script...
Kevin lost his independent voice when he signed up for the ambassador gig but he has been trending anti-China the past few years even at the Asia Society. Anyone would feel bitter about the CPC if they were required to study CPC documents as Dr. Rudd did to write his DPhil dissertation.
@@deanzaZZR Xi has caused many people to be anti-China, even Chinese
@@deanzaZZR His PhD dissertation was supposedly about Xi Jinpings three published books on Xi Jinping Thought. First of all, reading three books for a dissertation is a joke. Second, he obviously never found anything useful in his reading as he has never spoken about it in any detail.
The whole political climate in the West does not allow him to be pro-Chinese or he will be completely marginalized. It's not about morality.
Mr. Rudd, your Chinese language skill and with Chinese son-in-law doesn’t mean you know everything!
With his strong command of the Chinese language, he certainly could read the CCP’s evil motive deeper and clearer than other westerners.
Typo. Anything.
I used to respect this Kevin Rudd but no more. He is becoming more and more BS.
He is now well paid by usa
Can others agree more. He likes to throw in a few a Chinese phrases here and there to show off.
Rudd is a wolf in sheep's clothing. Both CNA and Rudd are U$ sponsored WEF shills.
@@tongfattho6913Rudd is getting arrogant even over his smattering proficiency. Does he really understand Chinese language nuances. "Par, Par, Par"😂 🤣😂 Joke.
What is Australia helicopter doing 8000 km from Australia.
Flying in China EEZ zone.
Running a fool's errand.
Watching North Korea, because the PRC can’t verifiably do so themselves.

China is accusing Australian helicopter of spying.
Kevin Rudd:"...significant increase in Chinese military expenditure over many decades now
the size of the Chinese surface Fleet now being in numerical terms larger than that of the
United States Navy..." John Pilger: China is surrounded by more than 400 US bases. The US's military expenditure is 3 times the expenditure of Russia and China combined or equal to the next 9 countries combined. Who is being aggressive. The US has more than 5000 nuclear weapons, more than 10 times compared to China's. Who is the most serious threat to the security of the world?
The nukes are there because of an even more aggressive Soviet/Russia. The bases are there because the host nations fear the alternative where the Americans are absent.
lonewolf. Well said! Thank you for the factual statistics.
Agreed
China should tell Australia this; Next time, it won't be flares, it'll be a missile.
Why don't tell the truth ?

Why are you lurking around the china sea? Go home to australia and you can sail in international waters as much as you like.
If some stranger is pacing back and forth in front of my house, I won't treat it lightly.
Kevin Rudd: "...we've had the latest incident at the Yellow Sea for example where Chinese
fighter jet fight flares in an Australian Chopper... " China's Foreign Ministry Spokesperson.
"An Australian military aircraft 👉deliberately flew within close range of China's airspace in a provocative move that endangered China's maritime and air security in the name of enforcing UN Security resolutions. The Chinese military took necessary measures at the scene to warn and alert the Australian side."
"The way the situation was handled was consistent with our laws and regulations, professional and safe China has lodged serious protests through the Australian side on its risky moves. We urge Australia to immediately stop the provocations and hype to prevent misunderstanding and miscalculation."

Kevin Rudd should not show off his linguistic expression in Chinese as he doesn't really share the essence of 道德觀.
Actions speak louder than words, and the Party fears someone who understands what they’re saying only in Mandarin without having 'morality with Chinese characteristics' distort his observations of their acts.
How sad to see what has become of the once great Kevin Rudd. He now does the work of the China-haters, neocons and warmongers by just regurgitating the talking points of the US State Department. As Australian ambassador, isn't he supposed to represent Australia's interests rather than the interests of his host country?
His need to top up his pension lately. Cost of living is too expensive now in Aussieland.
Check the helicopter location, you don't need to be close to Shandong, China.
Above that, when US tried its best to contain China, you would like China to stay low. It doesn't make sense. When US navy had domination, you were mouth zipped.
Not lost in Translation , simply Hegemony Ideas
This guy is so annoying.
陆克文总是觉得他理解中国,但懂汉语和理解中国完全是两码事。不跳出自由民主的致命自负,你永远无法理解。当然,他也没有义务去这么做:国际政治就是权力的对抗。布林肯说的明白:你不在餐桌上,就在菜单上。
也有可能在餐桌旁服务,在后厨洗盘子,或者在餐馆外面趴车。当然,都是值得尊重的工作,中国从1840年开始就这么做了。

For the last 40 years any business dealings with Communist gov China has created a beast to become monster that desires to destroy the West?
I am really disappointed. Kevin Rudd is supposed to know China. Yet everything he says about China is so far off from reality. It is such a pity.
Ya, very far off reality. yet claim himself someone who know China. just another descendant of the past colonial powers who has similar DNA n qualities.
"...many Australian netizens also questioned their government for causing trouble so far
away from home. Colin J Ely wrote "what was our helicopter doing there if you want
to play big boys games you have to be prepared to play by Big Boys rules stop
being a lap dog for the US. " Rebecca added "...so you burn Australian taxpayers money
on this field trip far far away from home for what?"
George Simmons said "Australians don't want your US sponsored war with
China". Nicely put so what do you guys think should Australia be flying its military aircraft so
far away from home or is it better to be a nice neighbor and not cause trouble?"
Kevin Rudd has become a China Hawk.
@user-os. Kevin Rudd was not so anti-China when he was PM of Australia. That made his master very unhappy. So the master had him sacked, and he was replaced as PM by Julia Gillard, who obediently carried out her anti-China duty.
Rudd was the 2nd Australian PM sacked by the master. The first was Gough Whitlam in the 1970s. The master arranged for fhe representative to the British queen to sack him. The British queen? Yes, the British queen sacked rhe PM of supposedly independent Australia.
Rudd, today, knows his place. Therefore, he has to be more of an anti-China hawk to demonstrate loyalty to his master.
CNA paid him
pays better than China . why not ?
@katong1953 Totally agree, if you go back a few months ago, he was very sensible when it comes to China and now he's part of the Government he has ro toe the line. SAD 😔
@@mamadujuldehbarrie734He's been staying in America since stepping down. That tells a lot about his latest stance on China.
According to Kevin Rudd s logic, Australia military ships can go any Chines port to check if any ship carries stuffs which violate UN resolutions.
Any UN resolution does NOT give the right of any country s military ships going to Chinese Huang See or nereby.
Challenging the US led Western order is needed as the West has been doing things around the world with little to no check and balance.
It is not just 'lost in translation', the truth is that they 'twist beyond recognition' to suit their political aims.
Which politician doesn't do that?
@mariomastadon. You have a cheap excuse for lying and fraud.
Reminds me of a minister from an Arab country who deliberately used English to warn western countries that it would create more extremists.
He said that he was afraid of lost translation, but actually he didn't want his words to be twisted when translated by western media.
@@mariomastadon7650
Let's say all politicians do it, but what US politicians do is at another level.
Did you know that US politicians recently sent threats to the ICC regarding plans to issue warrants against Netanyahu?
@@araara4746 You are right, but that news is not covered in the mainstream. They threatened to invade the Hague if they arrest anybody from Israel for genocide.
It is not only lost in translation between west-china but increasingly between west vs the rest of the world.
AFAIK, the Australian military assets that are prowling at China's doorstep in the name of UN has no UN marking. I'm not sure if the UN approves those Australian military assets or not.
@lenkiatleong. Good observation.
*Aussie jet got chased out by China jet for tresspassing recently*
Can someone tell me who created 5eyes, AUKUS, Quad ?
UN or US?
The Anglo-Saxon master.
From history record , they are pirate descendant.

@@katong1953 what is the duty of UN and why do we need it if it doesn’t have any authorization over US?
UN hq was located in US, as one of the 5 original Security Council. So, it's why the world needs to remove the hq to another country, or create a new independent UN.

Why does this Kevin always like to show some Chinese words in this speech? Weird!
It's impressive to his white audience lol. Cause he knows Chinese. Cringe for non white audience tho
Maybe he thought CNA audience (i.e. pro west Singaporean Chinese) master Chinese very well😂
He is trying to show his audience his credibility.
That he knows China well
I am not impressed with his Chinese.
@@keeboon66jeeze, I’ve not met a mandarin speaker who isn’t impressed. Congrats, you’re the first.

Think about distance of Yellow Sea and Australia..
China did not but Kevin Rudd has after becoming Australia Ambassador to the US.
Kevin, do you know why the changes? Explain elaborate what caused the changes ? Thank you. Btw don’t pull Singapore into the obit with your country problems with China!

In the past, when China export cheap consumer goods to the West, why don't the west say' over capacity '. Now, China with their own effort, finally were able to export high value products to the west and the west complain that China high value products are a threat as they were much sought after by their citizens. Didn't the west always mentioned free trade?Now the west and US subsidised their high valued industry and this is is a fact. But strangely, they are accusing China of doing the same thing. This kind of ugly tactics is too common nowadays but they assume the viewers are too(not clever ) to see through the plot. China is also to be blamed. This country rarely defends herself even though it has done nothing wrong. When the West set up debt trap themselves to the developing world but accuse China of debt trapping the world through their obor, China just keep silent. No wonder every wolf and hyena is tempting to get near u.

“China’s Yellow Sea”?? International waters between three different countries you mean?
I’d rather Australia not be there myself, but let’s not get totally carried away.
About 10 or so years ago Russia sailed right around the Australian coast close by in international waters - the Australian navy simply watched, acknowledging international waters, and didn’t go out to spark an incident.
Ausshit helicopter in yellow sea looking for yellow Rudd.🤣
Why didn't the conversation touches on what US has been doing in SEA and NEA? It is cause and effect, careful in your reporting CNA, before u lose everything.
Australian must understand Australia is an ignorable country, even UK is not important any more, so much showy performance does nothing to gain any spot light!
Maybe now I will agree with CHINA and the truth I don't like too much about AUKUS b'cs my country will affected fight between USA - CHINA in southeast asia sea.

Ah.... I see that's why.
CNA, you are beginning to spew American propaganda instead of being neutral only months before . I am unsubscribing.
you are 100% right.
But cna had been doing same for years.
How is talking to an ambassador “spewing” propaganda?? Why are you so easily triggered by such simple things?
@@daveb3987 A person of average intelligence will be able to tell.
Rupert Murdoch maybe got shares in CNA
So Rudd believes China is at fault for everything.
First no recognition that China’s military growth has always been a strategic response to US actions.
Like most who claim expertise on China, they only see China through the ideals they hold, never from the reality of China.
You always know when the expert is all bs, they waffle about Rules based order, Values, Democracy and China is always at fault.
I’m curious, where exactly in the Yellow Sea was the Australian ship and why the need to use a Helicopter, so close to Chinese waters, think Australia is being a bit lite on the facts.
An insightful interview yet with a good sense of humour. Reading those in the comment section you realised how much Kevin's well articulated facts has impacted those pro-CCP commenters. These same group of commenters are probably also the ones who highly praised Kevin during his tenure as PM of Australia, when he led a much friendlier approach at times when China was less toxic. Some would argue that Kevin's knowledge on Chinese politic is merely skin deep, ignoring that he reads the official CCP Political manifesto in its original Han form, which often deliberately would omit and cunningly twist harsh wordings to hide its intent when selectively release in English. Kevin is well versed in Chinese thinking and is an asset among the Western study of China's mind. As a Singaporean Chinese who read profoundly in Chinese literature, history and struggle, I highly recommended Kevin Rudd for anything related to Chinese politic.

Pls make sure Australia dont over produced for export
I wasn't aware military jets could "fire flares at an Australian chopper". All the videos I have seen show military jets shooting flares upwards from the back of the plane either in the attempt to confuse a missile or to signal a warning.
Wow, wumaos out in full force 😂😂
The root of the problem is the Hegemonic US demands America First and World Domination under the American rule-based international order. Whereas, China insists on Mutual Respect Mutual Benefits and non-interference in each other's internal affairs. Such will be the tense relationship between them until and unless a new world power architecture is firmly established most probably at the end of this decade
I like how thrilled Otelli was as Rudd casually drops some pure Beijing speak. 😅
he pretends he is not one of the actors
The CNA interviewer is parroting western media words , "aggression", assertiveness. Should stick to reading news
Thats CNA for u...Sg ain't neutural by any means..must protect the US investments.
I used to like Rudd. I can’t say the same anymore.
Australia bergaya seolah-olah dia negara barat padahal di terletak di selatan Asia tenggara, pun dengan Singapura, sebuah negara kecil yang terletak di Asia tenggara. Kedua negara ini harus sadar bahwa dia adalah orang timur bukan negara barat walaupun 70 % warga Australia adalah orang Eropa barat yang dulunya melakukan Genoksida terhadap penduduk asli Suku Aborigin.
Kevin Rudd is a wise man
Australia trying to back down now? 😂
Makes me wonder what is Australia ‘s military personnel doing so close to China and so far away from the coast of Australia. Being a US lackey will not serve its interests in the long run. Make peace, not trouble!
Just ask her foreign minister, a Chinese and infact Malaysian Chinese
Kevin Rudd with his strong command of Chinese language could read the CCP deeper and clearer. I am glad he has spoken up to help western audiences discern and see through the CCP’s true hegemonic and expansionist motives beyond its rhetoric and propaganda.

China is not a bird, So how could ruffles its feathers maybe I like to ruffles your feather, or I mean hair😅
His position is that I am implementing it in accordance with United Nations resolutions, and there is no need to inform relevant countries in North Korea and respect the territorial waters and exclusive economic zones of relevant countries. When the American police are dispatched, they will tell community residents to stay at home and a shootout breaks out in the community to protect their own safety. However, Australia's behavior shows that I am a police officer of the United Nations. You only need to cooperate. I do not need to inform you.
No need to explain, even fools know your intentions
Stupid behavior, stupid reasons
9:33 i'm already all ears 搞笑😂🎉
What is fha Australian helicopter doing in Yellow Sea it was less than 100Km from Beijing. As per the international rules that area is China EZ economic zone. Imagine if Chinese war planes flew all the way to Canberra just 100km away what would Australia do?

@kobemop. Go mop the floor. You know nothing
@@katong1953 Point out what I don't know or maybe you're the one that doesn't know. For your reference or rather context, I'm referring to Xi Jinping as a Mao 2.0 and being more to the left than his last two predecessors. Also, I myself as a communist see this well. I don't necessarily see that as a bad thing anyway, but rather a good thing, and trajectory China is going more towards is pretty good. Yes, China has always been red, but there's also been red revival all over China (also coupled with the tech wars and China forcing to develop more of its own industry, and being forced to be more self-sufficient as well).
