oh and here’s how relations between China and the west are actually like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kVOS6RVr6H0
At the beginning of the video, the situation in the US is similar to the current situation in Russia. There's also something going on with government bond rates and depositor confidence, only the numbers are different. All those forecasts can be projected onto Russia as well.
I also really liked that Ma was hit with US sanctions..)))
This can also be mirrored in Russia, where Russian oligarchs are hit with sanctions and are willing to do anything, even betrayal, to get the US to lift the sanctions. Oligarchs are saboteurs because their actions and intentions can run counter to state interests. Even if, as I've been told here, oligarchs in China have no influence over the state.
It's hard to imagine how much of his money Ma has taken out of China. He's essentially robbing the country.
Amazed it took them this long to finally start cutting supply lines from Europe.
No, I don't think it will be systemic.
For now, everyone is waiting to see what Russia will do. There's a strange silence.
