Staphylococcus: China is not recolonising Africa with debt. African countries are highly indebted to financial institutions in the West than China. Western countries offered South Africa $20BN to stop using coal, yet 70% of it is tied to debt. The West is trying to woo back African countries because they see what China has done - invest, open factories, contribute to infrastructure WITHOUT toppling any government, advocating for the introduction of laws which Africans don't like etc. China is not a hypocrite claiming mumbo-jumbo human rights, nor was China responsible for the butchering of Congolese in DRC and Namibians at the turn of the 20th century. China's deal with almost every country is: let's do business, and afterwards, we go our ways. African countries export more non-fossil goods to China than to the US. China is opening up its market for processed agricultural goods to African countries. Meanwhile, the US program AGOA is ending this year or next. No sign of renewal. I am glad a growing number of young Africans have learnt to be pragmatic rather than dogmatic. Why should an African be concerned with the fight in Ukraine? Two Europeans are fighting, and some people are interested in it. How many Ukrainians have been bothered that people in Benue have been slaughtered on their farms ever since? I understand why the West supports Ukraine, their right to. But others equally have the right to be neutral or support Russia. After all, the UK supported the Apartheid regime in South Africa and placed sanctions on Zimbabwe, 1 Like |

pansophist: I recalled your mention when I scanned through this article: https://www.economist.com/asia/2023/05/10/will-japan-fight The West's next aim will be to egg China into a war and have South Korea, Japan and maybe Phillippines fight China. The West will not confront China man-to-man. If they cannot confront an economically weak Russia, they won't touch China. And if South Korea and Japan are foolish enough to fight their cousins to soothe the white man, na dem sabi. The trio East Asian countries have very low birth rates, but China is more populous, die-hard, have more males etc. China kuku has more males than SKorea and Japan. So, if the latter like, make dem fight China. China will finish their men and export the remaining to take over Korean and Japanese women. 2. Rally and unite all their western allies. Strengthen NATO, bring in more members (Finland with Sweden loading), increase NATO budgets, and strengthen US grip in Europe. Europe is US' baby, no be today. How the US deceives Europe to the extent she offers subsidies luring European industrial giants to set up factories in the US, or forcing European and South Korean companies not to sell to Chinese buyers is befuddling. Now, I understand that it is better to be an enemy of America than a friend. How can you encourage South Korean and Japanese chip materials producers not to sell to Chinese buyers when China constitutes at least a 1/3 of their revenues? As it is, Chinese companies are filling in the gaps left by the Koreans and Japanese. These companies will be poorer in the long run because a third of their revenues don go. Even one Japanese executive sounded the warning - China chip making ambitions cannot be stopped. So, is it not better to benefit profitably from their expansion rather than trying to do the impossible of stopping it? The same US and so-called experts are saying Germany is getting too close to China. For instance, Mercedes-Benz CEO said it is impossible to cut-off China. Pragmatic man because almost half of MB's sales come from Greater China alone. But so-called experts, especially the Anglophones, want MB to cut-off China. If MB cut-off China, where else would they sell their expensive cars? To think that MB has been increasing prices, and the Chinese continue to buy. Na Africa MB wan sell 2023 E/S Class? 3. Impose an unprecedented amount of sanctions no nations have ever received on Russia, and cut them off the global financial market, while gambling on Russia's internal destruction and balkanization due to internal hardship. This is the reason Russia MUST win or else, slave trading will return. If this can be done to Russia, it means same can be applied to anyone else. Russia has to fight to win for the betterment of people in the Global South. I believe she will win, but she needs support from her allies just as Ukraine gets hers from the west. 5. Kill as much Slavic people as possible. Even if Russia wins in Ukraine, Slavic population as a whole will reduce, especially when Russia is so heavily underpopulated. Russia needs people. While true, Western population has been flat over the years. Most of the births are from non-native Europeans. In general, Europeans aren't birthing many children as previously. 6. Seize Russia's foreign asset. A shopping 200 something billion dollars. In an instant. It's gone. Russia will not get that money back. That's the spoilage of war. Yes. My response to number 3 also applies to number 3. Russia has to win, not just for herself but for the rest of the world's future generations. |

frankson1: They ain't standing up to nothing. If e sure them, they should attack one NATO company Russia ground game is weak, they only have nukes. If Ukraine was given long range missiles, aircrafts, ships and allowed to attack Russian territory, all options which the Russians are using against Ukraine, they will be pushed back in matter of weeks. Russia is using all these and still struggling in ground game. Russia only focuses on big stuff, they don't have conventional capability 1 Like |

obedience4: Lol, most of you are very ignorant. The turning point of the Korean War was the Battle of Imjin river, hence the war ended up in a stalemate. Else it would have been a complete rout of US and Allied forces by the Chinese forces. American forces retreated and the Chinese forces were in pursuit. Those who stood their ground were the British forces of the 1st Battalion, The Gloucestershire Regiment. That was the battle that decided how the war ended. No one won the Korean War - the war ended where it started and was frozen. They’re still technically at war tbh. And you could even make an argument that the US & Allied forces lost because their end game was to be at China’s border but they never achieved it. |

Gerrard59: The scenario of Russia/Ukraine war is not possible with China/Taiwan for so many reasons. Taiwan is not a sovereign country, and the Chinese made sure that since it's founding in 1949, it was the basis of establishing diplomatic relationship with any country. So if a country recognise Taiwan, then China will not recognise that country and have nothing to do with them. So when the US and China established diplomacy in the 80's, they have to switch the recognition of Taiwan to the Mainland, and Taiwan lost its status as a UN member state. So given this foundation, how on earth will any country defend Taiwan from China? It's like defending Port Harcourt from Nigeria. It makes no sense. Also, the geographical reality of Taiwan, China, Philippines, Japan, Korea are all in China's favour. None of this country share a land border with Taiwan, also Taiwan is an island, and even worse, Philippines, Japan, are island country as well. Korea shares a border with North Korea, a sworn enemy and ally of China, so how will they fight China? I'm just thinking of a possible scenario here. And most importantly, if any country dare send an army to Taiwan, then in the eyes of the Chinese, it's like Ghana supplying ipob with weapons and sending their soldier, therefore, violating international law and China's sovereignity. I can assure you that China will destroy that country. Historically, legally, and morally, China is on the right side. Taiwan only became important for the US as a means to contain China, that's all. The three island chain of maritime containment, that's US hope to strangle China. As far China is concern, no price is enough to pay for their land. Their history proves it. These vassal states slaving for the US knows this, but I doubt they will go that far, propaganda and reality are two different thing. We all thought NATO will fight Russia one on one, but did they? They are busy hiding under proxy. Russia's missles are not there for the museum. Anyway, I've always said that this decade is a very interesting one. The world has shifted, and western powers that are so used to being on top, like it's their birthright since 1400 will not go down without a fight. But they have to accept it because the Chinese are back to their rightful place on the global stage. 3 Likes |

pansophist: That's the thing these arrogant westerners don't know or disregard - Taiwan isn't a sovereign nation. Japan, South Korea, Singapore, Malaysia know this. And China is too big and wealthy unlike Russia to tolerate anyone supporting Taiwan. You're right about everything. The vassal states would be foolish to fight China as she's their biggest trading partner. They sell more to China than China sells to them. Honestly, it's good to be rich and thank goodness, China is rich. 1 Like |

All they have to do is pull back out of Ukraine and the war will end. Looking at Russia’s pathetic performance in Ukraine, they’d stand no chance in a conventional war against NATO. |

And if any brings it up there should be some who will be ready to take their madness. What Putin and his boys are doing is like modern slavery. I am not also supporting the west for doing such before, neither will I support China if she tries annexing Taiwan to the mainland. |
