"In Response"
 
President Xia Hong
The People's Republic of China
June 28, 2014
 
Reference Post:  "Diplomatic Cable"
=========================================
 
To:  Prime Minister Jack Decker, Commonwealth of Australia
From:  President Xia Hong, The People's Republic of China
Re:  Response To Previous Cable
Enc:  Beijing-Canberra Protocol
 
Mister Prime Minister:
 
    Please consider this response confirmation that we  have received, and 
reviewed, your previous message.  Allow me to take this  moment to offer my 
sincerest condolences to your government and your people, as  news has arrived 
here regarding Australia's own losses.  Please know the  People of China, and the 
Republic which represents them, stands in solidarity  with your nation.  If 
there is any assistance we may render, however  seemingly insignificant, please 
make your request to the Ambassador.
 
    It is now that I must turn my attention to your  request regarding 
military action in Iran.  I can only presume that by now  your government and/or 
it's allies have become aware of the operations about to  commence which, we 
hope, will end any war before it begins.  I appreciate  your desire to follow the 
traditional trappings of international law in this  situation, however the 
intelligence already available is far more concrete than  that which was 
available to Australia and the United States leading up to a  pre-emptive war with 
Iraq.  Precedent has been set for such actions, and it  is my sworn duty to 
defend the people of my republic.  A stern and clear  statement must be made that 
butchers will not be permitted to hide behind the  shield of faux-national 
leadership.  Those responsible, and those who  authorized these attacks, will be 
dealt with.
 
    Finally, it is with a great deal of confusion that  I address your 
comment regarding our alliance.  Both Australia and China  share the same strategic 
goals in the Pacific, namely providing the security and  stability due to the 
people's of our region.  This being stated, it can not  be said that our 
mutual pursuit of this interest constitutes by any stretch of  the imagination an 
alliance of anything other than mutual convenience.   Though we are avid 
trading partners, a relationship that my government supports  whole heartedly, with 
particular attention to Iran there has been a glaring lack  of support.  Both 
the governments of Canada and the United States, key  allies of your nation, 
have rejected any attempts made by this Government to  coordinate operations, 
diplomatic or militarily, with regards to Iran.   Repeated attempts have been 
made, and refused.  I am sure you can  appreciate then that it is frustrating 
to hear suddenly that China should  change it's policies in the name of good 
faith towards fair-weather  allies.  
 
    Thank you for your kind words, and let me be clear  that this government 
values it's relationship with your country  vehemently.  Our primary purpose, 
the primary purpose for any government  however, must be to protect it's 
people.  On these grounds, I must inform  you that until better reasons to call off 
any action are offered, or significant  and convincing evidence indicating 
different attackers is provided, our  operation will move forward.
 
Sincerely Grateful,
President Xia Hong.
