This is what i hear daily whenever i switch on news from CCTV 🤪

Go watch Ng Eng Hen and Bilahari latest  interviews on who is stirring shits in SCS.  It is pretty subtle and super interesting. 

https://www.ft.com/content/7d6ca06c-d098-4a48-818e-112b97a9497a

This article doesn't quite gel with Washington's thesis that XDD can't wait to invade Taiwan. 😂😂😂   If he did, he will be seen as the fool who took the bait set for him by the Americans. 

And I thought being less aggressive is good for world peace but Mr Blanchette, an American China expert, seems disappointed with Xi for having such warped thinking.  

So who is goading for a war here?  One who keeps denying they have such intention (hearsay and may be a red herring) or a party (with decades of such track record) who is proactively encouraging independence forces in Taiwan knowing it is a red line for China.  神是他，鬼也是他。

"Blanchette said one possible explanation for Xi’s comment was that some subordinates were trying to steer him away from more aggressive policies. “Whatever the explanation for Xi’s comments, it’s clear that the decision-making environment — and the information feeding into it — is being warped, either by Xi’s lieutenants, or by his own autocratic behaviour,” Blanchette said."

Lost a backer, looking for another.

Meloni brought her daughter to China, a perceived supporter of Russian efforts to eliminate Ukrainians.

hmm..

hmm..

I really don’t understand what you’re trying to say - now you’ve even gotten Italy involved!

I cannot already… 🤦🏻‍♂️

For those keen to know more and to understand the underlying.  Bilahari is super anti China and he is sympathetic, calling Marcos a fool. 

From 6 mins onwards.

hmm..

She is lobbying for Chinese EV players to set up shop in Italy? 

They are all hedging as well with Trump likely to be next POTUS.

She's simply telling China... you want sell EV here,  you manufacture here. Or else pay xx% tariff. No free ride.

Certainly fair.

China also taxed imported vehicles in the early days. They are using their market to trade for investments, jobs and knowhow

This is rightly so.

Italy and all countries should use their market to exchange for manufacturing investments and technology transfer.

Crazy shitbats will want to cut off all ties on manufactured pretext of Xinjiang and Tibetan genocide.

EU certainly didn't want china EV to enter their markets, even if when manufactured in Europe or EU.

Politicians claim china EVs manufactured in Europe can be exported to the rest of the world instead.

He can request Hamas talk to China and even Russia to plead Malaysia's case on his behalf🤣🤣

He basically burnt his bridges already.
