Why are they begging for phone calls then? If what Yellen said is true shouldn’t it be Xi who is desperate for Biden to pick up the phone?

Also, during the Clinton years when the US is undeniably numero uno at almost every important metric, they never had to come out and say that culture of democracy and freedom means that American economy is built on solid foundation blah blah. Reality shows it so no one needs to waste their breath.

Intelligence isn’t a necessary trait for frontline cannon fodder, in fact low intelligence is characterised by violence and favoured by commanders. You need someone manning the trenches after all and someone not too bright to stay there in the muck and death.
This columnist translated Yellens speech the other day as "china must follow the party line/be vassal (us) or be penalized". Intresting read.

You'd think that the last three years from anchorage should have taught the anglos the futility of this Cold War, but it appears a sharper lesson is needed.


love it, the ambiguous open to interpretation to give the yapping balts something to fear. Let their pact with the great Satan come with a heavy cost.

The SCMP article below summarizes Chinese policymakers' current opinions. Chinese policymakers don't think their US counterparts are rational anymore. I don't think China will negotiate with the current regime in the US in earnest. They probably will wait after the 2024 presidential election.

US-China ties set for further ‘turbulence’, former ambassador to Washington Cui Tiankai warns​

  • US failure to show mutual respect and keep its promises on issues like Taiwan is worsening ties with Beijing, veteran diplomat says
  • US government and media playing up ‘China threat’ to fend off perceived threat to hegemony, adds the ambassador to Washington from 2013 to 2021
“The US is now playing its version of the ‘Two Whatevers’ – whatever China does, they must oppose; whatever China advocates, they must disapprove of,” Cui said, referring to a short-lived Communist Party policy after the Mao era.

Considering the decision of the dissolution of the USSR was of questionable legality in the first place, just like the annexation of East Germany by the West.

But too long has passed and all of it is a de facto reality, so it isn't of much of use to bring it up, other than to piss of the Baltics which shouldn't be taken seriously anyway.
We could say that exterior interferences make them non sovereign more than borders anyway...

Looks like the evacuation route in Sudan is going towards the Egypt where they will take a flight back to China after a couple days.

A Chinese employee of Huawei stationed in the capital of Sudan, who requested anonymity, told the Global Times on Monday afternoon that he is on a bus to Egypt. The employee said they are scheduled to stay in Egypt for about two days before taking a plane back to China.
Chinese Foreign Ministry has dispatched a working group to Sudan and the first batch of Chinese personnel have been safely evacuated to Sudan's neighboring country, spokesperson Mao Ning said on Monday, as the conflict continues to escalate in capital Khartoum.

So China did end up having to do damage control over the incident. Its as a I said, it runs counter to the MO China has been promoting, diplomacy is a game where you sometimes have to swallow a bitter pill for the sake of professionalism and by extension your country's interests.

Simply put, if you think its as simple as telling countries you don't like to go f themselves, then write a web novel rather than comment on international diplomacy.
