Mike Pompeo Just Declared America's New China Policy: Regime Change
The National Interest ^ | 25 July 2020 | Gordon G. Chang

Posted on 07/25/2020 5:13:20 PM PDT by BeauBo

Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, from the podium at the Richard Nixon Presidential Library and Museum in Yorba Linda, California, laid out in no uncertain terms what the administration wanted to do and how it planned to go about accomplishing its ambitious aims.

America, the secretary of state said, has effectively ditched five decades of “engagement” policy and is now embracing a policy now out of favor across the American policy establishment: regime change.

Formally, the State Department still “engages” China, Pompeo said, but “simply to demand fairness and reciprocity.” Gone are the days when American diplomats engaged China to support the Communist Party...

More importantly, Pompeo said there would be a new form of engagement. “We must also engage and empower the Chinese people—a dynamic, freedom-loving people who are completely distinct from the Chinese Communist Party,” he said. “That begins with in-person diplomacy.”...

A paradigm shift on China comes none too soon. “It’s time,” Pompeo said on Thursday, “It’s time for free nations to act.”

That means corralling Asian countries to lock China out. Japan, India, Indonesia, S Korea, Vietnam, Philippines, Singapore....of course Taiwan....massive transfer of manufacturing.

Got to shred their economy and increase psyops. Voice of America is about to get a bump.

China may be on the road to famine. Can’t grow food crops in a flooded area. Orchards die when tree roots are submerged extended days. Livestock losses with flooding directly, or lack of feed access. Within the last week evidence presented revealing grain in storage losses from humidy promoted fungi infestation. Icing on the cake—locusts.

Buy American. If it says “Made in China” don’t buy it. No quicker way to make a Communist country fall than to not buy its goods.

"We must also engage and empower the Chinese people—a dynamic, freedom-loving people ..."

I don't know what planet Pompeo is living on. The Chinese are the biggest group of peasants the world has ever seen.
