Biden is the hero to fight against power crazy and dictators at the frontline Ukraine. Putin is a coward can only give a speech in his office. Again, threathening to lauch a nuclear war. If he has enough conventional weapons he will not repeat his grandmother threathening almost every month.
US & EU and alliance contribute more 60-70% world GDP, dominate world trading and advance technology. Dont need go to war, by sanction will able to defeat Russia evil alliance.
After China joining WTO, with the vast amount of funds & technology from western eventually China become world manufacturing factory. With the geo political conflict now, Apple assembly plants move to India and global supply chains been moved to Asean eventually. China development no more momentum and its population are reducing. China will become Japan going down
The Anglo Saxons are only a fraction of the world and not the fastest growing in the world. The fastest growing in the world is brics and global south.....and they don't see China as threatening their position in the world.
China foreign policy is not determined by who is leader in what country....leaders come and go but Russia like Pakistan will have good relationship with China.
These next 10 years are critical period...after these critical period, China will be so far ahead of the Anglo Saxons they can no longer start a war against China
brightsmart is the person only watching to receive Tik Tok without knowing the world affair. China export majority are still cheap manufacturing. China chips manufacturing companies closed down more than thousand last year. This is just begining.
Chip is the Achilles at the moment.....that is why America put on their effort in restricting chips self reliance in China....well, we will see....China is pushed into a corner and maybe the best thing that ever happen to chip manufacturing in China.
Huawei talk the same during US sanction about the self chip manufacturing but now how ...... ? CCP is self suicide by supporting Putin invasion. Power crazy and dictator CCP will be step down and following Putin.
Russia is more committed to win the war than the West.
The Russians were provoked by the NATO's expansion into Ukraine which is their neighbour and also part of the USSR. Seemingly, nobody should come to your neighbor, manipulated the neighbour to fight with you.
Another way to explain that Putin can not afford to lose this war is that the Russians do not want to lose this war...at any expense.
Putin want to recover his Great Russia Empire, all human being stop him. Conquer Ukraine is not enough for him. He is silly to push EU to US and silly Xi support Putin will drag China into trouble.
Don't think Putin can recover the Russian empire. Those countries have their own power/already independent from Russia.
The West need to take a good look at themselves. Throughout the history, the West went to so far away from their origin/countries to invade/colonized others' land and with many cases of enslaved the natives. They themselves also fight amongst themselves like in the Americas before forming the USA. The early settlers of the New World are mostly criminals/fighters running aways from their laws. Ever since, they are very willing to fight. Let's see what they/West also, did in the Middle East? For example, British has a land called Falklands so far near Argentina which is won over through war(s).
China can call for peace settlement for this war in Ukraine. China should be aware that they can not excuse themselves from the major events that involving the world/countries as they crawled out from the poverty/(polisi Tutup Pintu) practiced during the Ching dynasty. She has to engage with all sides as their products/services are reaching all conners of the world.
Quantitative easing (QE) is a form of monetary policy in which a central bank, like the U.S. Federal Reserve, purchases securities from the open market to reduce interest rates and increase the money supply.
The US can print money without the backing of gold reserve. Unbelievable. People would prefer to hold their gold than the US Dollars. Those treasury bills are not preferred by holders anymore. The national debts by the USA is just not sustainable anymore mathematically when including the interest payment.
Running dog of US again, US get lost from Asia, who need US to defend Asia.. ... Latest news one US reporter leaked the news that if US unable to defend Taiwan would destroy Taiwan first.. what the hell is this evil US...
America want to kill off Huawei, can meh? Huawei is now the world most innovative company. Huawei in JV with Tienjin port has already make the world most advanced port with 5 g for every thing and they intend to sell this service to every port in the world. The port is just a giant warehouse with no human labor and every operation fully automated
China leaders prefer to deal with the German leaders (met recently) than those from British/France that are inside the EU. The German's stake in this Ukraine war is very high than the rest inside the EU. The German has a stronger voice inside the EU/NATO apart from the US.
It's just pride than cause biden anti China policies....a bit of humility and acceptance of the rise of China and a multi polar world, more cooperation will make the world a much better place.
This book is the result of the author's many years of experience and observation throughout his 26 years in the stockbroking industry. It was written for general public to learn to invest based on facts and not on fantasies or hearsay....
