CHINA'S FOREIGN POLICY

It seems that China has a record of confrontation with its best customers. 


What does this mean. We know that China is heavily invested in trade with the USA, which is mostly one sided as China makes most US goods in the market place. At the same time, China makes missiles that they inform us can reach Nebraska etc etc.


Now, look at the dispute of the border between India and China. This is the same picture. China agitates India while making trade agreements. 


China keeps the heat on Taiwan also, and other Asian nations resist China while trading with China. It seems to me that this is some primal notion of international relations from a thousand years ago. I wonder if the history of China would bear this out. 


So, if China keeps this up, it would seem that a stand off with the whole world is in the offing, like two gun slingers with their hand poised to draw, China wants to look aggressive while cooing like a dove about more trade.


Bah. What fools we are to turn out back on Mexico, South and Central America, Africa and much of Asia to pamper the dragon.
