Yes the West demanding the world not to do business with Russia but they can buy Russian energy which is Russia's biggest business to however they see fit. They're only now discussing an embargo on Russia oil when it suits their purpose. In other words their sanctions aren't having the effect as they desire. Maybe because they still enriching Russia's number one business...? That doesn't play well with the rest of the world that the West is demanding they immediately not do business with Russia at all.
I'm reading how people like in this forum think the US will seize China's assets. Yeah they're dumb enough to do it but it will have blowback coming back onto themselves. I'm not just talking about China doing it back at the US. The US has the reputation that they uphold the rule of law which is why others trust their assets will be safe within the US. Look at how many countries hold their gold reserves in the US and not their own country. That's also why the dollar is the world's currency. That will be all put into question is they did that. They're trying cancel Russia for invading Ukraine. They have no just reason to do it to China. So if they just think they can do it because of the future which all they have, they can do it to anyone. All that has to happen is if the US votes in another Trump who said himself that some of its allies are worse than its enemies. You think the US won't do it their friends to get want it wants? There was that article about Italy wanting to seize assets from Germany because of WWII... and they were on the same side during WWII. Americans say such things because they think they can control the situation. They can't control what others see for themselves and they will not put money into the US. There was that article recently where it was arguing that the US needs to be able to win a nuclear war to deter China. Again they think if they're in control of something, they can win. It only take one nuke destroying a US city to ruin the US. Today you look at how even the US sees the vulnerability of foreign supply chains to China. They tried to change that and it blows back on them with the highest inflation since WWII and they have hardly done anything to stop supply chains from China. That's how fragile it is.

Maybe yes, maybe no, but if you have seen the (IMO disgraceful) comments from their COAS about buying Chinese weapons, these IK's comments might make more sense.
But whatever policies this new government makes (good/bad for China), it will be a loss for China because they will surely mess up Pakistan's economy and thus make it weak.
And for China, Pakistan should be made as strong as possible in its economy and thus becoming even stronger militarily in order to counter India.

To those American posters who keep singing the American strategy like it's magic leaving Americans unaffected with inflation and thinks that war with China and the consequences will simply be A-OK with Americans writ-large without political, business consequences of even greater magnitude are frankly deluding themselves and worst overestimating American current power and political stability.
Just read that garbage article earnestly and I must say the level of feigned ignorance as well as amnesia from these trash by pretending that China is somehow making inroads with CPC supposed media propaganda with Europe is beyond absurd. The notion that Europe has been largely innocent and hasn't been committing unrelenting attack to the internal matters of China is again can only be said by brain dead people and have no morality or ethics. The only people that can be convince of these so called marketing effort by Europe are those that essentially hates being Chinese, westernized, and mentally challenged.
Bro, I am not only living in US, I am a US citizen. So don't be mad if I am going to argue against your doomsday sentence
So first, as usual or as always, CNBC is a lagging indicator when it comes to de-leveraging, because that subject is not sexy but depressing and not bringing sponsors.
Secondly, That guy was the Dallas FED chief prior to the 2008 great financial crisis. None of those people in FED or on WST in positions prior to 2008 is credible or qualified to talk about US economy, period!!!
Thirdly, once again, those people confused inflation with prices going up. Inflation is a monetary phenomenon. It does not have direct relationship with pricing of some specific assets or commodities. The whole world is running a fiat monetary system after ditching the gold standard. When an economy is flooded with too much credit, that is inflation. When an economy is undergoing a credit crunch, that is deflation.
Stagflation is a buzz word invented by talking heads who just want to make them look good. There is no fundamental meanings to it. It is useful to scare uninformed.
US has ways and means to avoid a depression. Even today. Politicians are in the way. WST is always in the way. Lobbyists, crooks, you name it. Cases in point:
(1) There are overwhelming reasons to call off the trade war, which can instantly provide material relieves to domestic economic entities as well as consumer. It does not serve any meaningful purposes, other than a few faces of named politicians.
(2) A new tax regime with {5%, 10%, 15%, 20%} of all incomes of persons and institutions. And no deductions, period!!!
(3) USD20 minimum wage, which I argues since 2008. People who argued against minimum wages are those who contributed greatly to this 20+ years of monetary deluge.
(4) Abolish FED.
(5) Establish an electronic trading platform for buying and selling treasury bonds and municipal bonds. No human participants.
The list can go on and on. But none of them would be enacted by the politicians we have had in the past 3 decades or so. Still, the US economy is not going to crash or something like that. Stock markets may look ugly, but they don't equal to the US economy. Correction or recession is norm in any capitalistic economies. Only stupid politicians are capable of creating depressions.
