The war in Ukraine taught all Chinese a living lesson in patriotism, and the main lessons of this lesson for the countrymen were threefold:
1. In the face of interests and ideology, the actions of the United States and the West can be said to be surprisingly consistent. After the outbreak of the war in Ukraine, almost all the developed countries in the West followed the United States and began to impose sanctions on Russia; not only that, many international organizations controlled by the United States and the West also expressed sanctions against Russia, such as FIFA, FIBA, the International Criminal Court, the International Olympic Committee, the International Pet Association and so on. At the same time, the world is even more shocked that even Switzerland, which has been neutral for more than 200 years, has announced sanctions against Russia. These practices of the United States and the West are undoubtedly announcing to the whole world that no matter which country wants to challenge the hegemony of the United States and the West, they will huddle together and mobilize the resources in their hands to suppress, sanction, and even dismember the country at any cost. At present, this is what happened to Russia.
2. Even if the property is transferred to the well-known rich in the United States and the West, the United States and the West will still sanction and confiscate their property. The reason for this is that this encounter with Russia's rich is a clear proof. According to relevant media reports, since the outbreak of the war in Ukraine, the United States, the European Union, and the United Kingdom have all opened sanctions against the Russian oligarchic elite at the fastest speed. In its State of the Union address, the Biden administration publicly declared that the West would confiscate the "yachts, luxury apartments and private jets" of the Russian oligarchs because they were ill-gotten gains. Previously, Russian billionaire Alisheel Usmanov had been put on the EU sanctions list. One of Russia's richest yachts, the nearly $600 million, more than 150 meters long, has been seized by authorities in Hamburg, Germany. At the same time, the British government announced that it was considering seizing the property of sanctioned Russian "oligarchs". In the UK, many have called for sanctions against Romain Abramovich, the owner of the Premier League giants Chelsea Club, and even suggested that the government directly confiscate Abu's assets in the UK, including Chelsea Club. Not only the United Kingdom, the United States and the European Union began to sanction Russia, but even Switzerland, which has been neutral for more than 200 years, has begun to freeze Russian assets without the authorization of the United Nations Security Council.
3. The so-called news disclosure of facts, the protection of freedom of speech, the permanent neutrality of the country, science without borders, art without distinction between countries, sports have no politics, Nazi public enemies of mankind, and the sanctity and inviolability of private property, a series of such values that the well-known rich and famous are proud of, have been completely revealed this time. It shows to everyone in the world that all of the above is nothing more than a veil and fig leaf for the United States and the West to fool the people of the world, invade other countries, plunder the wealth of other countries, and beautify their own ugly faces. When this veil and fig leaf hinder their ugly actions mentioned above, they will not hesitate to tear it off, revealing their hideous faces and fangs.
