Forbes: Chinese Navy Submarines Could Become A Reality In Indian Ocean

The Chinese Navy is rapidly pursuing global capabilities. A key area of future operations may be the Indian Ocean. Chinese submarines in particular could have a strategic impact if they were roaming those waters. From China’s standpoint this would protect vital sea lanes which will be vulnerable in any war. Naturally many of the world’s navies would be concerned if this were the case. Chief among them is the Indian Navy which currently has the largest submarine fleet in the South Asia region.

I think to some extend it's normal and expected. Any criticism to China should be understand in the context of human rights violations and trade/IP theft and now the wuhan virus and bullying @ south China Sea and with regard to their concentration camps for Muslims and so on. My beef is not with the Chinese people - they've got a great sense of humour and amazing music/food/all kinds of stuff I like and admire. My problem is with the thugs running the country. How could the Chinese leadership not notify the world about the Wuhan virus for 51 days, while buying up PPE and then selling it to us at inflated prices for a pandemic they caused. It is the most vile, most cynical, most repulsive, most insulting behaviour I take issue with. After they stole trillions from us before in IP/copyright and trade violations. You must understand, if trillions are missing in the EU and North American budget (any country for that matter), hospitals close, poverty rises, people die of addictions. Then China also the #1 seller of Fentanyl, profiting of our deaths. Then insulting us and calling us racist when we have the audacity to complain.

That's what I take issue with.


And I take issue with our media establishment defending this murder and thievery.

Upon further review. This is like that Chinese company buying that Ukrainian aircraft carrier to turn it into a casino.
