Please tell African countries to be careful. The tensions evolving in the world now are huge. As Ukraine battles Russia for its future, China is striking a deal with Solomon Islands to put a military base there: ‘The United States warned Friday it would “respond accordingly” if China installs a military base on the strategic Solomon Islands after the tiny Pacific state signed a security pact with Beijing.’

The implication is massive. Yes, it seems like China wants to have its own version of “NATO” and is recruiting countries. The positions of Australia, New Zealand and the United States on Solomon Islands as China comes could be likened to how Russia feels about Ukraine as NATO draws closer: “Some were concerned …: a Chinese military base being built in the Solomon Islands, a first for China in the Pacific. Australia and the US were so worried that they sent delegations to the Pacific island, hoping to stop the agreement.”

The big question is this: what if Solomon Islands decides to make a sovereign decision and go ahead with China, what happens? FT has called it an “irony” when you see what is happening in Ukraine with Russia. Humans are just the same – hope someone can invent a drug to make us enjoy living peacefully.

A senior-level U.S. delegation met the Solomon Islands’ leader on Friday and warned that Washington would have “significant concerns and respond accordingly” to any steps to establish a permanent Chinese military presence in the Pacific island nation.

A White House statement said Solomon Islands Prime Minister Manasseh Sogavare reiterated to the visiting delegation led by White House Indo-Pacific coordinator Kurt Campbell that there would be no military base, no long-term presence, and no power projection capability under a security deal signed with China.

Where are those Nairaland Mr right, democracy advocate and moral judges who have been hammering that Russia must respect the sovereign decision of Ukraine to chose whatever political and security part it desires for itself.
The Solomon island, a sovereign state, cannot chose make a security pact with China. Is the West is nolonger champions of democracy?
So only the US and her allies are allowed to threaten China and Russia. And China and Russia do not have the right too to feel threatened.
Please Nairaland mods (mynd44 lalasticlala) this post needs to get to fp for proper perspective

Only U.S.A has the right to commit evil and atrocities and the world will be applauding them. If others follow their footprints, some woke democratic zombies will start shouting "Hitler" "tyrant " etc..

China is just looking for a place where they can build more concentration camps for Uighur muslims.
Chinese soldiers would like to continue raping muslim women in a tropical paradise.

The most important thing here to know is that US wants to deny a sovereign nation of it's right to make alliance with another sovereign state. Same thing they vilify Putin and Russia for doing to ukraine. Isn't that hypocrisy

In other words, Solomon island which is a sovereign state should be denied the freedom to make political decisions

You lots are hypocrites.
China cannot establish a military base in Solomon Islands because it would endanger Australia's security.
But Russia is evil for prioritizing his security while refusing to allow Ukraine to join NATO
