President Xi Jinping says he sees this initiative as "a fuller realization of the ideals of Japan's ill-fated 'Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere.' Getting our continent out from under the boot heel of our white European overlords was the right objective, but its scope was too narrow and Japan was the wrong country to try to lead this development."
"Prosperity shouldn't be just for Asians," Xi asserted. "It should be for everyone. Since a majority of the global population is Asian, it should be Asians who lead the world to a universal prosperity. China is the strongest Asian power and has the might that Japan lacked in its failed attempt to bring about a broader prosperity in the 1940s. We have the biggest army and soon will have the largest arsenal of nuclear weapons. It is only natural that the world would turn to us for leadership."
"Part of our leadership will entail the replacement of the West's anarchic allegiance to individual rights with China's more socially responsible collective rights," Xi continued. "Our innovative 'social credit' system allows us to reward those who demonstrate the proper social behaviors with the maximum of permitted freedoms. At the same time, those who flout behavioral expectations can be punished by restricting their freedoms. We invite those nations of like mind to accept our protection. A world of mutual prosperity, peace, and stability await all under our wings."
US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken called Xi's remarks "inspiring. Rather than butting heads with China as former President Trump did and would have us do if he succeeds in overthrowing the duly elected President Biden, the benefits of cooperation and potential unification under a single global government are there for the taking. Look, with 77% of America's youth being unfit for military service it would be foolish for us to think we can successfully resist eventual incorporation into a Chinese superstate. On top of this, if we are true to our democratic belief in majority rule Xi should be president of the world. Amicable adherence to socially responsible collective rights for all will eliminate the horrors of war for humanity. I, for one, look forward playing my part in making this happen."
In related news, Blinken promised Ukraine that he will send them another billion dollars in aid--$300 million of that to help fight crime. "There is no point in paying to fend off the Russian invaders if local criminals are allowed to prey upon the law-abiding citizens," he said. "So many of the country's resources are invested in the war that the local police have been effectively 'de-funded.' This is the pathway to chaos that we hope to stem in Ukraine."
