Chinese Embassy in Afghanistan operating normally; Taliban promises safety of embassy: ambassador
Global Times ^ | August 17, 2021 | Global Times

The Chinese Embassy in Afghanistan is operating as normal, and the Taliban has pledged to guarantee its safety, the Chinese ambassador to Afghanistan told the Global Times, who sent a photo of Chinese national flag waving in front of the embassy building.

Ambassador Wang Yu told the Global Times on Tuesday that according to his knowledge, the embassies of Russia, Pakistan and Iran are also operating. Embassy staffers of Western countries have been transferred to the airport, which is controlled by the US military.

The ambassador said that there are only embassy employees as diplomats’ families have not accompanied them to Afghanistan for years.

Wang said the embassy is connected with the outside world, although the network signal is less stable now, and power has been blacked out occasionally. He said they could hear frequent gunshots on Monday.

There are a few Chinese nationals remaining in Afghanistan, the ambassador said, noting that some of them hope the embassy can help them return to China as soon as possible. As commercial flights have been suspended, they may have to wait until flights resume, Wang said.

He sent Global Times a photo of the Chinese national flag waving in front of the embassy building.

The Iranians will pay the Taliban big money for any American fighter jets, they captured.

In the 80s the U.S. helped the Afghan Mujahideen resist the soviets. I suspect that in the last decade or so China has been helping the Taliban to resist the U.S.

It’s like a card game. Who your allies are depends on what cards you’re delt

As is the Russian embassy, only Biden has surrendered to the Taliban.

Well China is a behemoth next door..

Why make trouble where none exists

Taliban seems to be playing good cop right now for public consumption and slaughtering on the down low

You can get away with it there

Unlike say Boz where the bodies pop up quickly

Good morning! Do you think Joe Biden’s national security advisor Jake Sullivan is really as incompetent as the Afghanistan debacle makes him out to be?

…or was this all on purpose? A short thread to help you decide:

https://thenationalpulse.com/exclusive/yale-china-center-biden-ties/

Joe Biden’s NatSec And China Policy Directors Served As Fellows At Chinese Communist Party-Funded Center.
FEBRUARY 20, 2021

So, as you can see from the link above Sullivan has some pretty sketchy links to the CCP, who are champing at the bit to expand their influence in Afghanistan.

It gets weirder:

https://thenationalpulse.com/exclusive/harvard-belfer-china-pushes-ccp-propaganda/

REVEALED: Biden Advisers’ Deep Ties To Chinese Communist Party Military And Propaganda.
FEBRUARY 2, 2021

Maybe it’s a grift. Or maybe they’re literally traitors. Who else would claim they were on the same side as Al Qaeda?

https://thenationalpulse.com/breaking/biden-natsec-advisor-al-qaeda/

REVEALED: Biden NatSec Advisor Claimed Al Qaeda Was ‘On Our Side’.
FEBRUARY 26, 2021

Finally, let’s put this rancid cherry on the cake of shit that is the Biden regime.

Jake Sullivan, in his own words, talking about how much he wants China ascendant:

https://thenationalpulse.com/politics/biden-nat-sec-adviser-china/

Biden’s National Security Adviser Wants To ‘Encourage China’s Rise’
NOVEMBER 25, 2020

“We helped create the conditions of stability and security in East Asia that allowed China to have this remarkable economic rise. So that it’s rising, in a way, is not the failure of American foreign policy; it’s the success of creating those stable conditions.”

— Jake Sullivan

So, you know, we can all jump to making fun of the folks around Biden for ballsing this up.

But don’t discount the fact that these people literally worked for CCP funded think tanks and have consistently promoted Chinese Communist geopolitical interests.

Just sayin.

That was my thought several days ago. If I was trapped in Afghanistan I would have headed for the Russian embassy right away.

Just wait until the ChiComs embarrass Biden and the leftist DP by allowing Americans to shelter for safety in their Kabul embassy and start flying them home to America on Chinese PLA military planes.

Would the crazy Biden Clown Posse deny ChiCom hostage flights access to land in the US to avoid the humiliation?

Of course he won't. He listens to his master's voice
