Then answer the question. You are still avoiding and deflecting it.Because he mentioned things related "CCP" "members" etc. I don't think he has any clue when he did that here in a foreign forum. Not all CCP members really understand CCP nowadays, let alone foreigners
I said the competence of the CCP merits a vast amount of benefit of the doubt based on their track record. It has nothing to do with any member or whatever forum we're on. This lack of logic really hurts your ability to debate.Because he mentioned things related "CCP" "members" etc. I don't think he has any clue when he did that here in a foreign forum.
And that's also unrelated to what I said; I simply said that the CCP's tremendous achievements make it sound stupid for a random person, or even a highly accomplished one, to call them foolish.Not all CCP members really understand CCP nowadays, let alone foreigners
Russia seeks to end US-dominated world order – Lavrov
Washington acts based on ad-hoc rules that violate international law, foreign minister claims
“Our special military operation is meant to put an end to the unabashed expansion [of NATO] and the unabashed drive towards full domination by the US and its Western subjects on the world stage,” Lavrov told Rossiya 24 news channel.
“This domination is built on gross violations of international law and under some rules, which they are now hyping so much and which they make up on a case-by-case basis,” he added.
Lavrov blasted EU foreign policy chief Josep Borrell for appearing to encourage more fighting in Ukraine. The bloc’s top diplomat said the conflict “will be won on the battlefield” as he announced more military aid to Kiev last Saturday. Lavrov called the statement “outrageous.”
“When a diplomatic chief … says a certain conflict can only be resolved through military action… Well, it must be something personal. He either misspoke or spoke without thinking, making a statement that nobody asked him to make. But it’s an outrageous remark,” Lavrov added.
Andrey Kortunov: Ukraine conflict is the last act in a long Soviet collapse
The last act?
The launch of a “special military operation” in Ukraine is clearly an exception to the trend toward a more rational, more risk aversive, and more pragmatic approach to the post-Soviet space. It seems that in the eyes of the leadership in the Kremlin, a West-oriented Ukraine collaborating closely with NATO presented a formidable challenge not only to Russia’s security interests, but even to Russia’s existence. Any rational cost-benefit analysis would suggest that Moscow has a lot to lose, but not much to gain by trying to reconstruct Ukraine by military means. It is premature to analyze the outcome of the Kremlin’s move in Ukraine, but one can speculate that this will be remembered as the last act of the 30-years-long drama of Russia struggling with its imperial legacy.
The paradoxical result of Russia’s foreign policy over the past 30 years is that the country has been able to turn into a very active global power without becoming a legitimate regional leader. Moreover, the Russian globalism of recent years can be considered a kind of political compensation for Moscow’s many failures in its attempts to build constructive and stable relations with many of its closest neighbors. Nevertheless, the task of building such relations should sooner or later return to the top of Moscow’s main foreign policy priorities. It will be much more difficult now than it was back in 1991. Still, without addressing this critical problem, any successes in other areas of Russian foreign policy will inevitably depreciate.
I thought America may consider leaving the oil sales alone if the Iranian deal doesn't work out, then go after India's military deals with Russia. It looks like they want to go for both.
