#china 's #ccp is still pushing forwards with #zero #covid , and have now put 51 #million people into #lockdown https://www.zerohedge.com/covid-19/china.. I'm sure there will be no #economic #impact as a result... Oh would you look at that: https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/just-a.. Very strange, despite awful outlooks, it magically rebounds...
So #china is now rattling off about #taiwan again: https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/c.. The problem is the #west cannot #afford to #fight #russia and #china at the same time. I think they realise this and may seize the #opportunity ... Problem is, #china 's #ccp are ill #prepared to take #advantage of the current #geopolitics - they would need a #force of something like 1 million #soldiers to take #taiwan .
#russia is now asking for #military #equipment from #china 's #ccp after having #warned that #foreign #supplies of military equipment in #support of #ukraine is a clear #declaration of #involvement - a #reason why the #us was #hesitant to not #help #send #polish #fighterjets https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/r.. If the #chinese help Russia it seems to be #gameon ...
#china 's #ccp is super scary when it comes to #propaganda and #children https://youtube.com/watch?v=LGfvpnsVs5U Damn.
An #embarrassingly #small #donation from #china 's #ccp #redcross (which are supposed to be #independent from the #government but aren't): https://www.reuters.com/world/china-prov.. #netherlands with 20 #million people have #donated 100 million #dollars , the #chinese with 1 #billion people #donate less than a million dollars. They still #refuse to call it an #invasion too.
Looks like #china 's #ccp are #censoring all #news that is anti- #putin or pro- #ukraine https://www.axios.com/beijings-ukraine-c.. If things do not change soon, we are certainly looking at a #worldwar now.
Huh, it looks like #china 's #ccp is actually *not* well positioned to help #russia #avoid #sanctions https://youtube.com/watch?v=G1437ZfUGmU Their #payment #system is not ready, they are not #setup to accept #trade , #chinese #banks don't want to give #loans and #china itself doesn't want to get caught up in the sanctions either. #putin is quickly running out of friends...
As #predicted , #russia is now #forced to get into bed with #china 's #ccp and their #banking #system https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/r.. That move was likely #checkmate for #putin - the #ccp will very likely #capitalise on this moment as #russian 's are now completely #dependant on the whims of #china . Scary times.
Apparently the #covid #lableak #theory is supposed to be less likely that other competing theories: https://www.economist.com/science-and-te.. But it still fails to answer basic questions: Why did #china 's #ccp and #cdc not #cooperate ? Why was it a *year* before the #who got limited #access ? Why did the #wiv #delete their #online #databases ? How did it make its way 700 miles from the #origin ? This, and much more...
Apparently the #zerocovid #policy is not going well for anybody, which started with #nz and is now hitting #china 's #ccp https://www.zerohedge.com/economics/chin.. Their public are in such #panic over the #threat of #covid that they are having massive #issues walking back their #policies ... Who would think that #china 's insanely #authoritarian #laws would ever come to bite them? Holding my breath for the #west to #admit it was the wrong #policy ...
The #russian #invasion into #ukraine was #planned *at least* #months in advance, as #china 's #ccp even #requested that they #delay the #attack till after the #chinese #winter #olympics https://www.zerohedge.com/political/chin.. Here we see again that #chinese #politics only cares for its own interests and not #global interests. They are clearly not ready to be a global #superpower .
#china 's #ccp 's #president #xi #ryan is looking to #capitalise on the #russia #ukraine #conflict by pretending to try to broker #peace https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/presid.. Apparently #china is limiting their #purchases of #russian #commodities - they likely don't want to get #caught up in #financial #sanctions https://www.zerohedge.com/political/chin..
Seems like #china 's #ccp looked into #jackma and found he was squeaky clean, so they couldn't take his #assets and #private #property https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/c.. That won't stop them from #fabricating something instead and taking #antgroup away from him - they are hard up on #cash after all.
#china 's #ccp have #expanded their #lockdown where #zero people continue to get #covid and #die from it, according to their #official #statistics https://www.zerohedge.com/covid-19/ccp-e.. Apparently they are #detecting #covid amongst #winter #olympics #staff - which could mean that it gets called off. Waiting on them to start #blaming #foreign #athletes , despite exceptionally #stringent rules.
We're yet to see whether #china 's #ccp are *actually* #cracking down on #pollution after they apparently #jail #steel manufacturers for #lying about #air #data - something the #ccp themselves do: https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/c.. I wouldn't be surprised though if it's actually just an effort to #nationalise these #industries ...
#china 's #ccp show off their " #mechanical #yak " #robot , a clear #clone of the #bostondynamics #robot https://www.zerohedge.com/military/china.. Problem is, it's #slow , is #remotecontrol , doesn't #prove #load carrying #capability or #range ... The entire #concept it weird anyway, we have much better #transport options than this...
