China Strongly Opposes NATO's Expansion Into The Asia-Pacific Region

Reuters: China lashes back at NATO criticism, warns it will protect its rights 

BEIJING (Reuters) -Beijing lashed back at NATO's accusation that China challenges the bloc's interests and security, and opposed any attempt by the military alliance to expand its footprint into the Asia-Pacific region. 

In a strongly worded communique issued midway into a two-day summit in the Lithuanian capital of Vilnius on Tuesday, NATO said the People's Republic of China (PRC) challenged its interests, security and values with its "ambitions and coercive policies". 

"The PRC employs a broad range of political, economic, and military tools to increase its global footprint and project power, while remaining opaque about its strategy, intentions and military build-up," NATO heads of state said in their communique.

Biden seized $3.5 billion meant for 9/11 victims and diverted it to a ‘trust fund’ for Afghan

I wonder how much the Taliban will kick back to the big guy?

China is absolutely right to oppose NATO expansion into the Pacific. Does NATO want to take over the world?

It was 10% when he was VP. Now, he is da prez, so might it be higher?

Plus, everyone knows and nothing happens. It is so in your face, might he charge more?


After Comey and Wray, who fly CAP, I do not see, who would want to be in the FBI except to be part of the goon squad like Andre the Giant.

NATO can't defend itself against migrant invasions on Europe and North America. They couldn't fight their way out of a wet paper bag unless they fought a Colonial war in some 3rd world country and even then goat herders in Afghanistan beat them. Fight Russia and China? They're cities would be radioactive ruins...
