China sells to both Russia and Ukraine. I remember there was a youtube video showing a Russian dude went to a Shenzhen factory to buy drones and discovered some Ukrainian buyers also there.
In regards to Africa, China is indisputably better than the US at foreign policy as a fact.
Check out the passport rankings to see who objectivity has the best foreign relations. https://www.passportindex.org/byRank.php surprised to see Syria and Pakistan lower than "Palestinian territories".
Even if they're doing it for selfish reasons, 10 years of Chinese business has done more to lift the continent out of poverty than 30+ years of Western NGOs.
I don’t think he meant the Chinese were generous in Africa but just better than the Westerners. I’d take debt and infra over poverty and bombs any time of day.
Chinese missiles and bombs are also making headway in africa as China keeps growing its military arms exports. Nigeria and Angola are ts 2nd and 3rd largest buyers after Pakistan.
I am a bit puzzled. The second link you posted shows that China is investing way more than the US (which is actually divesting for the last few years). For arms, it's still a too low of an amount to make a difference.
It's very weird when people post links which contradict their text.
I usually block people that do that, because I find a quick trawl through their comment history often reveals they're deliberately spreading misinformation and/or gaslighting.
You are the one gaslighting. China is simply claiming that the USA invests less than they actually do.
HN doesn’t have a block function, but ya, I don’t see wolf warriors adding much to the conversation either. You guys just have a twisted view of the world and it isn’t interesting interacting with that.
