Have you not seen the map showing how they have aggressively moved their country into close proximity with more than a dozen US bases?
I long want to retire in Istanbul or Southeast Asia, if their future currencies are tied to yuan, better get ready for the setup.
Maybe you simply don't understand the policy of containment. Bonus: Nearly all of those bases were present before communist China was established.
China is just waiting on the US to use up its ammo and heavy weapons stocks which is dwindling very fast with Joe Biden giving most of it to Ukraine in efforts to weaken Russia. China is an even tougher enemy. They have huge stockpiles of weapons including, lots of anti-ship missiles like the one that sunk the Russian Movska. In addition, they continue to build ships, build more fighter jets which are clones of US fighter jets. Experts now believe the US will lose a war with China on top of that. It is going to be very bloody with the US suffering a huge number of casualties. China has a 1,000,000 man army too. Oh, chances are good, China will invade Taiwan. They are not afraid of the US contrary to so called US experts saying that. Sanctions are not going to frighten the Chinese as they supply most of the commodities and raw materials used by the US in our manufacturing, including, making heavy weapons systems. China will cut off supply of commodities and raw materials once, war with the US starts.
china has an a$$ full of big problems. it won't start a war. xi is an asshole - but he is not that stupid - unlike madvlad.
