Very dangerous views. If the world is a big market, you don’t need to become a bandit when a peaceful country like China gains more money by hard working. We should award the virtue of hard working on the part of China. A fair world would allow everyone who work hard to gain more. It is high time for those people only play with stocks and wars to stop the past practice, and earn a living by doing constructive works.

I'm neither in China nor the States. I think it's overall good for the rest of the world. China will be forced to invest in other countries and the States will also pay for the cost surplus of their imports. the inflation is their problem, not ours. We rarely buy American merchandise anyway.
How will China be forced to invest in other countries when other countries do not offer cheap attractive, competitive investment package for companies as China does?
You should be concerned. The USD being the world currency in international trade, anything your country's buy/sell is fixed in USD. So when the US start printing money like craz , it affects all countries.

China accounts for one-third of world trade. The reason why the U.S. dollar can collect seigniorage is China’s support and use. If the United States wants to tear down this pillar, the world will be repriced. The anchors of pricing are resources and manufacturing capabilities. According to data released by the United Nations, Russia ranks first in resources and China ranks first in manufacturing. What about the United States?

Is like the whole pf china will be submerged in antatica while America going about normal
Very dangerous views. If the world is a big market, you don’t need to become a bandit when a peaceful country like China gains more money by hard working. We should award the virtue of hard working on the part of China. A fair world would allow everyone who work hard to gain more. It is high time for those people only play with stocks and wars to stop the past practice, and earn a living by doing constructive works.
🧡 USA or America calls it "Liberation" instead of "Invasion". That was what US call it in Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, Syria, Yemen, Somalia and the list goes on... Why the double standard? Confused... Please enlighten. Genuine question...

Your rant is pure deflection. If you can actually defend China's actions then do it. No need to invoke any other nation.
Your juvenile argument is "they did it so I can too"

Why always want war? Cooperation is better
Such a simplistic statement. What if each side accuses the other of not being cooperative?
Anyone who predicts in 5 year increments doesnt really know when.
I'm neither in China nor the States. I think it's overall good for the rest of the world. China will be forced to invest in other countries and the States will also pay for the cost surplus of their imports. the inflation is their problem, not ours. We rarely buy American merchandise anyway.
How will China be forced to invest in other countries when other countries do not offer cheap attractive, competitive investment package for companies as China does?
You should be concerned. The USD being the world currency in international trade, anything your country's buy/sell is fixed in USD. So when the US start printing money like craz , it affects all countries.

China will have a record 1 trillion dollar trade surplus with the world this year
Even with the tariffs we and other countries have imposed on them these last 7 years
While the USA looks to tariff everyone
China these last few years has actually loaned out a few trillion USD and built up infrastructure like ports, roads railways etc for its Belt and Road/Global South Country partners
Helping these Countries build up their export sectors
Plus China is also doing this belo with other countries

On 1 July 2018, China slashed the import tariff rates of daily consumer goods involving 1,449 tariff lines. The term ‘daily consumer goods’ covers eight categories of product: food; apparel, footwear and headwear; furniture and houseware; sundry grocery items; cultural, sports and entertainment supplies, home electronics; daily chemical products; and medical and health products.
The average tariff rates of the goods involved have been reduced from 15.7% to 6.9%, a reduction of 55.9%. Among these, the average import tariffs for apparel, footwear, headwear, kitchenware and fitness products have been reduced from 15.9% to 7.1%. For home appliances, such as washing machines and refrigerators, the reduction was from 20.5% to 8.0%. For processed food, the rates were cut from 15.2% to 6.9%. The average tariff rates for detergents, cosmetics, such as skincare and haircare products, and some medicine and health products have fallen from 8.4% to 2.9%. This is the fifth time that China has lowered import tariffs for consumer goods in recent years.
In November 2018, China reduced the import tariffs on 1,585 taxable items, including industrial goods. The average tariff rate for high demand mechanical and electrical equipment, such as construction machinery, instruments and meters, was lowered from 12.2% to 8.8%. For textiles and building materials, the average tariff rate was cut from 11.5% to 8.4%, while that for certain resource goods, such as paper products, as well as primary goods fell from 6.6% to 5.4%.

Taliban Announces Completion of Construction of Afghanistan-China Connecting Road
Jan 16, 2024, 10:03 GMT
Mohammad Ayub Khalid, the Taliban’s governor in Badakhshan, announced that the construction of the Little Pamir Road from Badakhshan to the Chinese border has been completed, officially connecting Afghanistan to China through this province.
Khalid added that efforts are underway to initiate the asphalt paving of this road “in the near future”.
He made these statements during an interview with the Taliban-controlled Bakhtar news agency.
But fed increase interest😅
China great foresight of digital firewall and non internationized of its currency are best defence against western hegemonic capitalisation. China demographic issue can easily be overcome with tweaking retirement age and advanced research using IVF to enhance its population growth.
Absolutely not lol.
Lol yeah - information is scary haha 😂
What would winnie (Xitler) do? That's the MILLION DOLLAR Question everyone wants to know! Ha! You can beat that!!
He will do what he always does and make a bunch of empty threats and then do nothing because China is a paper tiger. Xi is stupid, but he is not that stupid. He knows China's military and economy is nowhere close to what the U.S's is.
You’re not going to sell me on a hegemonic China. We conceded Taiwan when Nixon went to China
Being cowed into conceding Taiwan was a huge blunder but the political atmosphere was different back then
@@anthonymuhoho5037Taiwan never belongs to America
Taiwan is just the defeat party of Chinese Civil War
This Michael guy is bluffing. China and Taiwan had been locked in a civil war 5 years before Korea War broke out.😂
Hey China! How's that Made in 2025 working out?
🤣
That Mike person says, Xi will be 125 years old by that time. He won't be so sharp as he was in the case of the Zero COVID policy.
From this, I see another Gordon Chang. Amazing experts.
Total propaganda rubbish
i was laughing when they talk about china . they don’t know what they are talking about , Gordon Chang level. 😂

Exactly.
The Gordon Chang reference is getting old and meaningless.
@@XX-qi5euwhy not Gordon Chang wrote a book about the coming collapse of China in 2001
Was on Fox News flogging his latest book recently
Yes, the aspect of Hal Brands and Michael Beckley is actually the Gordon Chang’s “China collapse”2.0. They can say Chinese 5% growth is decline while USA is only 2%. What a beautiful double standard!
Really this people are expert in china 😂😂😂😂
Yes, Xi needs to get on his knees and beg for forgiveness.😂
You will be surprised that 99% Chinese do not know CN well enough! It is the 1% Chinese and some non-Chinese are able to gather info. and analyse effectively! This is due to 99% Chinese get their info. inside the well or wall. ahhaahaha!

China is buying microchips from US and US is buying other goods from China, billions of dollars trade exchange between the two countries every year.
China accounts for one-third of world trade. The reason why the U.S. dollar can collect seigniorage is China’s support and use. If the United States wants to tear down this pillar, the world will be repriced. The anchors of pricing are resources and manufacturing capabilities. According to data released by the United Nations, Russia ranks first in resources and China ranks first in manufacturing. What about the United States?
Do you have a point?
The dollar is safe for years, there are no other viable alternatives to the dollar.
It would be nice to include more people with different viewpoints. While I think American speakers typically have some valid points, their outlook is usually very one sided and not well researched.
