The US is a complete mess and completely unreliable as a defense and business partner. Trump is driving Europe towards China. Even though China supports Russia against Ukraine, China seems much more dependable to do fair business with.
- koonsolo 9mo agoChina is predictable, since they act in self intrest. No idea what the hell US is doing.
- cudgy 9mo agoSelf interests of whom? China is a diverse, huge country.
- koonsolo 9mo agoEvery group is diverse. You want me to specify it to each individual? China as a country of course, what else?
- cudgy 9mo agoYes, countries are not monolithic entities. Such generalized statements don’t really mean much and don’t convey much. I doubt whether you know what self interest “China” is interested in as it would depend on context. I prefer statements like the leadership of China or the people of China or the military industrial complex of China or the Uighyrs of China. Even better it would be to provide accurate polls of the groups to determine what their self interest actually are. I think you would agree that all of these groups have different priorities and therefore different self interest.
