The Africans are also waking up to China’s Belt and Road Global theft plan. Hopefully no too late.
The Belt and Road initiative is a response to the US Navy control of the high seas and trade routes.
They are doing something that when it began as a way to ensure their trade realations globablly, it has now become for the west not a choice of co-existance but a choice to contian on land any Chinese commerence and influence.
America is not going to allow, nor will NATO or the EU/ropeans allow any commerical competiton, nor give countries a choice in who they do busienss.
That Belt and Road has literally forced a pivot to Asia for America and we are on the slow boat to war with China - it seems we cannot cooperate or co-exist with other nations, but will stand only to dominate.
Twenty years ago I thought the US was correct in everything, but the corruption of Obama-Biden have served to destroy America’s good standing in world affairs, and our focus on Ukraine has brought light upon the dark side of US Power. Trump will use force globablly to ensure no slips from America’s economic orbit.
Trump has the chance to restore trust in America, by good deeds rather than the threat of force or sanctions, but he has choosen a path that leads to war and ruin for all involved - Trump is banking that the US can rebuild quicker than everyone else after the fallout.
