Remember Bolsonaro too
He made a U turn on everything after getting elected because people rarely care about ebil gommies if they can't buy anything to their children.
Another rumor based article. Might be true but has no news value as of now.
That twitter quote they dropped is a good sign. Generally when they make comparisons between China and fictional novels, the opposite happens.
Do we have any news on what happened to Qin Gang?
The CIA funding must be pouring-in!
What would he do anyways? Leave BRICS, which his country more or less begged to join? So the status quo before him returns?
Seems like your average tinpot south American fascist, they've historically been fairly neutral to China, because alienating the largest economy is hardly smart when these dictators usually rely on bribes. The only ones that would really get hurt are the locals, who probably will experience waves of "communist" and "saboteur" purges (I.e. Whoever el presidente doesn't like). And of course that doesn't help the already shit tier Argentinian economy.
I'm anticipating retarded face saving lies incoming soon, some Bolsonaro tier ones. Like "acktually China is not really communist, it's capitalist, they also hate mulattos & Muslims and guess who germony worked with in ww2? China. Xi is a strong leader, like me!". (please support my regime that is about as stable as a statue built from piss and shit)
Nope!
Cartels and insurgents are motivated differently; cartels by money and insurgents by ideology. Once the money stops flowing, the cartels lose their power and influence. A campaign against them need focus, simply, on halting their cash-flow while hitting at the cartel leadership. A drone-based surveillance and strike campaign would be sufficient to achieve the latter element of this strategy. The former element would be the most difficult as the manufacturing and distribution points are more spatially diversified than the leadership.
Criminals are always easier to contend against than are zealots; criminals are motivated by greed, zealots by their version of “truth”! The only reason that the cartels are still in business is because, to some degree, they serve the interests of the U. S. ”Shadow Government”, as they have since the Reagan administration, at least.
Drugs would continue flowing until Mexico is fully occupied. Because Americans won't stop using them, and we know US police can't stop distribution in the USA. I can assure you the cartels would fund themselves indefinitely if the US does another Afghanistan-like low-commitment occupation in Mexico.
