“Imagine that a valuable property of yours was being traded between two people right before your eyes—without your permission—and one of those people was a thief who had stolen your possession. At the same time, the other was a prominent person from your neighborhood who knows well that you are the rightful owner. How would you feel? Naturally, you would despise the thief’s shamelessness and [feel] deeply disappointed in the indifference of the prominent man. …Our call may not sound appealing to overly “realist” politicians, but it is the most reasonable call for those who believe in the power of truth, trust the right course of history, and have strategic foresight. Those who turn a deaf ear today will one day regret it when [the People's Republic of] China has taken complete control over the world. Finally, I remind all politicians around the globe that in international trade and politics, it is wise, strategic, moral, and lawful to speak with the valid owner of the goods, not with the thief.”
