The USA and its allies can continue to jump up and down about China's spending on its military, but it does not matter. What is important is that China needs to keep up its military upgrading to defend itself.
Forget about their outcry hyping up the number of nuclear missiles that China is now building. Or comparing the advantage of their aircraft carriers with China and downplaying Chinese aircraft carriers as inferior. Or showing purported growing silo sites in the Gobi Desert to support their agenda. It is none of their concern as such weapons and sites are not for offence but mainly for defense, being built on Chinese soil.
While the USA warships are carrying all the weapons of mass destruction on the high seas, threatening everyone, no one raise any eyebrow over such behavior.
When a Russian warship docks in a South American port, there is such a hue and cry, it baffles the mind. In fact, even before a Chinese warship docks at the Chancay Port built by the Chinese, the war mongering cry is already loud and clear.
The same shameless behavior of the USA, the West and India are also heard when China is helping to develop Pakistan's Gwadar Port. Much is being said about Pakistanis protesting against the project, which we know is all instigated by you know who.
Gwadar Port is important for China's access to Middle East oil, with building of other facilities across Pakistan and Afghanistan for the import of oil by China across land. This is to prepare for blockade in times of war of the Straits of Malacca. Afghanistan and China are developing good relations in cross border trade. It is quite a noticeably a less known fact that Afghanistan shares a narrow common border with China, which can be exploited into a win-win situation for both countries.

The UK is now trying to be chummy with China, claiming that the UK is ready made for Chinese investments. What is going on? Is China so myopic not to see the hypocrisy that the UK is showing? The UK banned Huawei's 5G foothold in the UK and also Tik Tok in certain quarters. This cannot be conveniently ignored and forgotten by the Chinese.
ReplyDeleteChina must be very careful of the 'Devil's Advocate', the official mouthpiece of the USA, its war mongering lieutenant-in-chief and the head of its attack-dog squad. The USA used the UK to sabotage the peace deal in Ukraine. The UK probably had a hand in the bombing of the Nord Stream pipelines. The UK is an untrustworthy country to deal with altogether.
Brexit dealt a heavy blow to the UK's economy fueling its debt crisis. The EU wants nothing more to do with the UK, not even wanting to take the UK back obviously and trade between them is dwindling. Angela Merkel, the ex-German Chancellor had even said that she wants to make the UK crawl on broken glass for leaving the EU. UK businesses are also migrating to the EU to take advantage of the bigger market available. This is despite the EU economy suffering its own hiccups over the energy crisis. China is now seen to be the salvation for the UK.
China must not be lulled into a false sense of comfort investing in the UK. With the USA, the devil behind the scenes, nothing good can come out of the false facade that is displayed by the UK. What is happening in Ukraine and the Middle East cannot be more transparent about the UK's motive which China must take into account.
What is wrong with China expanding its military capabilities? Are we to say that military power is only the prerogative of the Whites, and other non-White countries must remain militarily weak and compliant, to be controlled by the Whites?
ReplyDeleteSame as progress and getting rich is the prerogative of the Whites, not for non-Whites.
