Observation -->
XI (PRChina) has done the following , persistently -->
(1) TAIWAN *intimidation* via WEAPONS firing ...
... PRChina Missiles passing over Taipei City.
... PRChina claiming (recently) TAIWAN STRAIT is NOT 'International' Water.
(2) Claims *vast* portions of SOUTH CHINA SEA for PRChina ...
... Other Asia nations do NOT see it as XI does.
(3) Supports PUTIN (Russia) in 'special' BUTT BUDDY relationship.
NOT seeing it here , that (PRChina) XI is the friend of JAPAN or Asia in general.
PRChina seems *all* about MILITARY INTIMIDATION at this point.
Drew Thompson, a visiting Senior Research Fellow at the Lee Kuan Yew School -->
“The (XI 'noise') discourse did not seek to address underlying diverging interests or describe an alternate paradigm where China might be willing to compromise and accommodate other country’s interests, rather than relentlessly pursuing their own (PRChina *aggressive* MILITARY Agenda) at other countries’ expense.”
