China’s Belt and Road Initiative is neo-colonialism 101: bait nations with loans, then tighten the noose when they can’t pay up. That’s not defense; that’s exploitation.
I see, so not only do you never provide evidence for your claims, you also never read evidence provided to you.
You have provided no evidence to support your arguments, you’re just saying them, as usual.
This isn’t altruism
No one is saying that any of it is altruism. But just because it’s not altuism doesn’t necessarily mean that it’s exploitation. There is a third option.
And I’m not passing whatever that is through a translator.
Ah, the “third option” cop-out—where exploitation gets rebranded as benevolence. You’re right, it’s not altruism; it’s calculated self-interest dressed up in flowery rhetoric. Call it what you want, but when nations lose sovereignty over ports, railways, and resources, it’s not a partnership—it’s a leash.
And if you don’t recognize the last paragraph, just show it to your handler. They’ll know what it means.

Again, no evidence. Just assertions that I guess you’re accustomed to people simply accepting as received wisdom.
