Chinese have just to set some limits, formulate some "consequences," and enact the consequences.

Blinken's get rich quick scheme is setting up a company to guide other companies wanting contracts with the DoD through the process.

That is Blinken's mindset. Blinken is the head diplomat.

Expect great things from Malta?
