When it comes to being blockaded, China and North Korea say that these are child's play.
I can say with certainty that North Korea will enter a period of rapid development in the next decade, a reward for its unwavering self-reliance.

Here they're trying to figure out how China is moving forward while India is not. You know what they say is a negative from how Gandhi got the British out of India. He taught Indians non-violent protesting. He's praised by the West because he did it through non-violence. Of course when you're the colonialist, you prefer not being violently forced out as compared to what happened to them in China. I'm not saying using violence was the difference that India got wrong. It's because of non-violent protests successfully ousting the British, it was literally the first thing Indians learned to do in protesting everything they didn't like. That's today's Western liberal democracy at work. And what in the West is their excuse they claim why China is moving ahead and gets things done so fast? It's because they don't have the bureaucracy of a democracy holding China back.
Why do you think the West wants developing countries to adopt democracy first before anything else like economic rights? Because they don't want another China on their hands. Democracy is not good starting out from the bottom. Is it because that's what happens naturally or was it because the West knew that would prevent the country from being a threat they can't control? Why does the West want China to adopt democracy? It's not because they care for the Chinese people. It's so they can have influence and control over those in China. Why does the US want American social media companies to have free unrestricted access in China. It's so they can control how Chinese think just like what they're charging what TikTok was doing and what the critics say their own social media companies are doing to the American people for the worst.
Google wanted in on China early on because China had no real domestic competitors. Google knew they could take over China hence why they made the mistake of daring to challenge China. Google is criticized today for doing something they've been doing from the beginning. They were stacking the deck on what results showed up on what people searched. They did it for money hence why businesses called that unfair which is still being fought in the courts today. It's not only businesses. Google controlled what people saw in searches. For China all the first results were pages upon pages of negative articles of China written by Westerners. What could do more damage in China if everything Chinese read about themselves was negative and that was their aim. Same thing going on with AI where American AI is hypocritically biased and politically influenced.
Why doesn't Europe or Japan have their own Google or Facebook or their own competing AI? Is it because that's how the US engineered it? They see it themselves today how they don't have their own competitors to the US as a negative. Why is India any different? Maybe they're behind China because as they like to brag, they're more like the West than China. China is challenging the US in everything. Western allies and India are not. If the US is okay with doing that to their own allies, what would they have done to China? You already see a glimpse of it today where Japan is angry China didn't buy their radioactive fish to eat or how Europe thinks they can demand China give them their EV technology for free while China gets nothing in return. They think everyone else is their slave and they're just suppose to hand all their money over to them because they're the master.
This is not going to end well. Doesn’t this mean that if Trump has set this as a new standard that such a thing ca now be done by the enemies of the USA cause it sounds like this will be the future moving forward. I wonder if the Taiwanese leader is watching this closely and that Japanese woman child also needs to watch out because if China finally decides that it’s time for her to leave the world, nothing the USA can do will deter China ever again because Trump has now set the standard. Still the USA loves this sort of thing but really, it would be nice if the USA finally has a taste of its own medicine for once

That last sentence is the key part and problem. What to do afterwards. The US is good at toppling governments but horrible at rebuilding or occupying long term. We have seen the story play out repeatedly with Afghanistan and Iraq.
Venezuelan vice president has taken over power.
It's like a peaceful transfer of power; Maduro just boarded a US military plane for a vacation. Ridiculous.
Do they even have a defense system or any army? How come a president gets captured so fast?
Also points to good planning from American side, and good possibility of corruption in the Venezuelan army.
BTW, doesn't Venezuelan have S300's? Another Russian equipment that does poorly in actual combat.

lol. look at my post. US is well supported.
It's less about morality and more about Iran being too weak and vacillating to carry out such an idealistic foreign policy. There has to be a balance of realism and idealism in any great power's approach to international relations, or else one must bear the consequences of overreaching.
