Why is the USA pouring money into upkeeping those bases because the USA cares about the fate of other countries? Maintaining those bases is to protect the natives as touted. Be honest and peer into the deep. Just like protecting the Native American Indians by setting up concentration camps masquerading as reservations? Wake up world!
Everything the USA does is just like loving the Muslims in Xinjiang but killing the Muslims in the Middle East. It depends on what is the agenda of the USA that defines its hypocritic moves.

There is the news that the Chinese Government is cutting back on purchase of Russian oil over the new sanctions on two Russian oil giants put up by the USA against Russia. How credible is that news and how much of a possibility is that happening with such an abrupt move by China against Russian interest?
To put it in perspective, what currencies are China and Russia using in their bilateral oil trade or other businesses? Not in US$ definitely, but in Yuan and Rubles that defy monitoring by the USA. Or to be more transparent, they are predominantly doing barter trade, oil for infrastructure and investments. So, how much oil flows into China are just guesswork, especially through pipelines.
As already sounded out by some analysts, the success of the latest sanctions depends on co-operation of every country buying Russian energy, which we have seen has already been working out fine for them so far against all the earlier sanctions imposed on the buying of Russian energy. To put it in better perspective, even the one's involved in the sanctioning, the EU, is still discreetly buying Russian oil under the table.
If China and Russia can do the oil trade outside the purview of the US$, what about other countries using Yuan to do the same? Which inevitably is again helping de-dollarization, putting another nail in the coffin of the US$ hegemony.
When countries experiment and found out they can do trade outside the US$, that is going to be a tsunami in the making.
More than 90% of trade between China and Russia is now done in Yuan and Rubles. Figure that out.
Not true that China is buying less Russian oil. That has been proven in a speech by the Chinese spokesperson. Buying Russian oil or not is not the dictate of the USA and China cannot be seen to be supporting the USA agenda and sacrificing itself like the EU. It is a commercial trade deal that has existed for decades.
