Is There A Secret China - Cambodia Deal To Allow Chinese Forces At A Naval Base?


Reuters: Cambodia denies deal to allow armed Chinese forces at its naval base

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - China will be able to place armed forces at a Cambodian naval base under a secret pact between the two nations, the Wall Street Journal said on Sunday, although Cambodian officials denied such a deal had been struck.

The agreement, reached this spring but not made public, gives China exclusive access to part of Cambodia’s Ream Naval Base on the Gulf of Thailand, the Journal said, citing U.S. and allied officials familiar with the matter.

Such an arrangement would boost China’s ability to assert contested territorial claims and economic interests in the South China Sea, challenging U.S. allies in Southeast Asia.

Chinese and Cambodian officials denied such a pact existed, the Journal said.

Subject is about China

But Fred posts "Trump Still Faces 9 Investigations Into His Finances"

He is so clever that Fred.

Fred is so constitutionally astute that he wants to post ex post facto laws.

Now that is extremely cleaver for a partisan hack.

The deal sounds interesting, the denial too.

When the walls are rebuilt and we win on 2020, additional wall will be built.

If wall isn't being built fast enough it is not through lack of trying.

If it is not being built, it is because you are guilty. Proud of yourself parrot?

Well Fred he is adding another Trillion bucks to the debt load this year and that probably included some of the money he gave to the already wealthy via tax rebates. That has to count for something. /s

Once he "solves" the illegal immigration problem (/s) he will turn on another group and work his way up the line and eventually the middle class will be forced to join in, or be attacked themselves. It will destroy every good that is left in America. Seems to me there was someone else in the last century that did just that, someone who Trump admires so greatly that he keeps that individual's book on his night stand. So it is reported that is.

Mexico intercepted an organized ring of smugglers and caught 5 truckloads of illegals and shut it down

So Trump is starting to reverse what Obama did. Obama advertised food stamps in Mexico encouraging people to come illegally.

It burns your soft, pudgy ass that Trump is getting something done.
