From the Washington Free Beacon: Minnesota governor and former vice presidential nominee Tim Walz bemoaned that the United States is “not seen as a neutral actor” in the Middle East and thus questioned which “voice in the world” could negotiate a truce between Israel and Iran. Moments later, he answered his own question: “It might be the Chinese.”
Walz’s comments came during a Center for American Progress panel on Friday. Asked about Israel’s strikes on Iran, he started by condemning the “situation in Gaza” and touting “a two-state solution where we can allow folks to live peacefully and coexist.” He then questioned how the conflict between Israel and Iran could end.
“Now, who is the voice in the world that can negotiate some type of agreement in this?” Walz asked. “Who holds the moral authority? Who holds the ability to do that? Because we are not seen as a neutral actor, and we maybe never were.”
“Now I ask who that is,” he continued, “and I mean, consistently, over and over again, we’re going to have to face the reality: It might be the Chinese.”
Walz has a long history of applauding China’s communist system that extends back before he first held elected office.

Then, if upholding China as the greatest “moral authority” wasn’t bad enough, Walz also condemned the military parade scheduled for Saturday to honor the Army’s 250th birthday, and declared he hopes it rains.
He implied that instead of attending the military parade, he will be joining one of the “No Kings” anti-Trump protests.
