China has pumped cheap money into Latin America and the Caribbean for years, indebting governments and effectively buying influence. Where it has been unable to loan or buy, it has used armies of cheap workers to build key infrastructure projects, giving it outsized influence. And those ties are set to deepen with the signing of a new cooperation pact
* China has put pen to paper on a new deal to deepen ties with countries in Latin America and the Caribbean
* New deal will see Beijing share nuclear technology, build 5G and communications networks, help develop space programmes and pump cheap infrastructure loans into the region in attempt to buy influence
* Comes off the back of years of Chinese investment and trade in the region, which has diminished US power
* Beijing plans to 'take over' America's back yard and is a 'growing threat' to the US, analysts have warned
China has inked a new deal with leaders in Latin America and the Caribbean to deepen ties across almost all areas of society in what one analyst likened to a plot to 'take over' the region.
As part of the deal, Beijing has committed to supplying the region with 'civilian' nuclear technology, helping to develop 'peaceful' space programmes, building 5G networks of the kind Washington warns will be used to spy on people, and to pumping in cheap loans and financing for 'elaborate development plans.'

The USA has not done much of anything to help in South and Central America. If China is stepping forward to help, then more power to them.
ReplyDeleteChina builds, US bombs.
ReplyDeleteIf the Americans would pay the UN at the same rate at China, then we could take some of the saved cashed and pay of Brasil and other chosen nation's debt. China leverage temporarily or better halted. The US could pocket the difference in not funding the UN to the hilt.
ReplyDeleteBase the US's contribution on GDP. Now we would pay a little more than China. In 2035, we would pay the same as China.
Trump would go for this strategy, I think.
Biden would not. He reads script given to him. , Obama read a script. He read it better than Biden. But off script Obama is bad. He interjects too many uhms and uhs.
Kamala is too much of a fuckwit to read a script. It is why the script writers want to get rid of her. Sad thing is Kamala does not have Biden's excuse of advanced brain disease. Imagine an Alzheimer's patient is better at reading script than you are. That is Kamala's predickament.
"Kamala's predickament."
ReplyDeleteLOL!
You like that? I wish I could claim some special genius, but it is common ribald humor.
