⚡UK PM SUNAK REFUSED TO DISCUSS FINANCIAL TIES TO RUSSIA:

When asked about his wife's business dealings in Russia, which contrasted with his public statements on people severing financial ties with the country, Sunak refused to discuss the issue.

"I'm an elected politician, and I'm here to talk to you about what I'm responsible for. My wife is not."

Sunak previously came under fire when it was revealed that his wife had been avoiding UK tax on her overseas business income because she was classed as a non-domiciled resident of the UK.

ScarletBrace:
Malformed brain.
E be like say you live on the moon. If you're up to date on what's going on, you'll know that most production lines are leaving China. A good number left already.
The EU is a potential market more inclined towards America than China. The Asian market has got a huge aspiring India, South Korea and Japan, still serving the US' interest in many ways.
Production lines are China's lifeline as a manufacturing hub. That's not quite so for the US.
China currently has a global manufacturing output of about 28%. The US has 16%. Japan has about 7%. Germany, about 5%. South Korea and India 3% each. We still have the UK, Italy, France and other EU countries slightly below this range.
That tells you the Chinese depends more on manufacturing than the US. The US at 16% manufacturing globally is still the largest economy by GDP. That tells you she has other things going for her.
Now look at how Europe moved away from Russian gas. Only very few EU countries use Russian gas today. See the chart below to confirm the drastic change in a space of roughly 2 years.
If they can do this to cheap Russian gas, so what on earth will make cheap Chinese wares get anything different?
Europe and America are cousins. Africa and Asia are distant neighbors. If China faces a lash from the US, she'll likely get same from the EU.
You guys don't learn from historical connotations and current realities. You just hug you sentiments and get buried with it in delusion and destructive denial.

t2luv1:
That dying empire still generates 60% of the world's wealth. China's economy with its 3 times the population still has 1/3 GDP of the USA. 75% of the goods in the port of Shanghai China's largest port are destined for the USA. China is not the USA's largest market both Mexico, and Canada are 1 and 2 followed by the EU. Partner gets your facts right. California by itself is the world's 5th largest economy and right behind is the Lone Star State of Texas at number 7 not too bad for a dying empire. FYI Russia's economy is just the same size as the state of Illinois
And who do you think owns this so called US wealth?

The Saudis, Qataris, Kuwaitis, Japanese, Chinese and other countries. They own about 70% of all US reserves and major shares in the top companies in the US.

So all these talk of GDP is useless because it doesn't even belong to Americans. It belongs to the people who owns these shares.

Even a cattle herder in Mali with lots of money can own major stakes in a US fortune 500 company.

⚡US McAlester Army Ammunition Plant is being expanded to increase the production capacity of the GBU-57A/B Massive Ordnance Penetrator (MOP).

Right now there is facilitation for just 2 of the massive bombs per month. The new assembly area will open sometime in the next 5 months and will allow for production of at least 6 and possibly 8 MOPs per month. It will also support production of 2000 & 5000 pound bombs.

MOPs are only integrated on the US Air Force's B-2 Spirit stealth bombers, and are essential to contingency plans for striking Iran or North Korea's hardened WMD & ballistic missile facilities.
