Remember the good old USSR, the model for the People's Republic China? As befitted any totalitarian regime, the USSR lied about the nuclear plant accident at Chernobyl until its radioactive cloud began spreading over other countries. Its later admission of the disaster served to undermine its credibility at home and abroad, and ultimately resulted in regime change.
Has the same thing occurred in China? It lied about this contagion from the beginning, and continues to suppress information about its cause and magnitude. Will the rest of the world take care of its duplicity, and will the people of China demand accountability?
Let's hope so.
