Don't be amazed; it's very simple. People can't be mad at things that happened a century ago. Russia is an ally today while Japan and the UK are antagonists to China. Fire does not burn without a continuous fuel supply, which the Japanese and British never fail to supply. Vengeance over the past is just an excuse.
Except that Japan and UK have already returned all their concessions on Chinese soil. Russia still occupies a large part of NE China and is directly responsible for the independence of Mongolia. So what you're saying is not obvious to me at all.

It amazes me to no end how you Chinese can be so forgiving towards Russian imperialism yet so vengeful towards Japanese and British imperialism.
It amazes me how people could not understand something that is so simple, the British and the Japanese are today, members of the Anglo cartels led by the Americans that seeks to limit China's economic growth, militarily threatening China's borders, while endlessly questioning China's sovereignty over its own land.
Russia does not, while being the target of the very same cartel.

That's really that fucking simple, people aren't bringing up past issue for the past's sake, it is how it relates to the present.

If you insist on thinking that way, then I must remind you that according to the map of China during the Yuan Dynasty, half of the Eurasian continent was ours.

China has settled all of its territorial disputes with Russia and the independence of Mongolia, is, once again, a past event. Current events are that Japan has a standing territorial dispute with China over the Diaoyu Islands and the UK promots chaos and anti-Chinese sentiment in Hong Kong. Right now, Russia is politically aligned with China, resolutely endorses the One China Policy in word and spirit, and actively fights against our common enemies while Japan and the UK latch onto the US like barnacles on a whale's nuts sanctioning China at every order, making up stories about Chinese camps and genocide, and supporting Taiwan's independence as best they can. You can see why Chinese people would feel much more positively about Russia than the US or Japan, right?
So what you're saying is not obvious to me at all.
Well, if it's not obvious to you but it's obvious to everyone else, especially the Chinese... what can I say?

Historically China and the northern empires, whether they are Xiongnu, Liao, Jin, Mongol or Russian, would fight over the borders and the border often moves around due to waning and waxing of empires. The border area of Mobei and Outer Manchuria is desolate. Very few people live here, it was historically a buffer zone between rich China proper and rich central Asia. China first conquered it from Russia

, shit happens. The current border is the most of Manchuria that China has ever gotten except for the period from 1689-1858. It is hard to get emotional over this, which is why people don't get emotional over it, and the idea never gets popular support.

, Japan was to have returned all lands annexed by the Empire of Japan. Yet today Okinawa and Diaoyu Island are still occupied by Japan and they're still supporting Taiwanese independence. UK handed back their concessions because they knew they had no chance of holding it, but still set harmful traps in them.

UK and Japan are continuing to harm China today. If they stopped harming China, people would only regard their imperialism as historical, rather than ongoing.

I am. I'm always thinking why you're so stupid and wrong all the time.

This requirement has nothing to do with Mexican "soft power" or any Mexican request at all. It was an American-mandated clause to protect the American labor force from being out-competed by lower Mexican labor rates.

1. $14.44 is under $16.
2. "To avoid tariffs" means that they can either be manufacturer at that rate or they will simply be subject to tariffs, which many many things are. It will depend on whether it's more cost-effective to manufacture them at $16/hour labor cost or to just pay tariffs.
3. After this is reached, the impact on Mexican exports is yet to be seen.
$16*9=$144 per day. Mexico has 48 hour work week. FDI aka physical investments are going Mexico way.
There's nothing to admit. I never said Mexico isn't growing; I said its living conditions and quality are far below the US.
Mexico managed Covid well when you look at overall vitality and life expectancy trends. you are looking at very large population not some small city country. and its manufacturing sector and tourism sector among the strongest in the world. both these sectors need physical standing to serve not sit in front of computer.
In US Hispanics are more concentrated on physical jobs like Construction or physical services and still have good life expectancy.

  • In 2019, overall life expectancy in years was 85.7 for the Asian population, 82.2 for the Latino population, 78.9 for the white population, 75.3 for the Black population, and 73.1 for the AIAN population.

No, you are the person who least understands soft power of any person on this forum. I have never heard anyone claim that Mexico has more soft power than the US and Canada before. You're an imbecile, fully certified.
Yes Mexico does have more soft power than any one else thats why largest flights of US are with Mexico thats on top busiest land border and it is not cheap tourism by international standards as those are going to limited areas.
Power disparity with what? How do you show/demonstrate who lacks soft power and who has it? Because no one other than you has ever said that Mexico has a great deal of soft power. But that's probably because in every post, you have to dodge the question of what soft power is as you've given up after defining it in a wildly incorrect way at least 3 times.
Mexico strong demographic growth shows that only it can stand next door to US.
So this is another instance where you tried to speak for someone or some country but they said the opposite. You said Trump is a fan of Mexico, I show you he's making war plans against Mexico, and then you make up some nonsense garbage to pretend you were not directly contradicted by the facts and the news.
Making war means that he thinks Mexico is getting stronger but it will not change things a bit as he not very effective.

According to Potsdam Declaration Japan shell be subject to occupation by allied forces (meaning including China and Russia) until its society completes demilitarisation and justice mated out to all war criminals. Given they still have that shrine and their politicians visit it from time to time it seems to me like the process isn't complete and China/Russia is within their rights to occupy the four home islands to ensure that's done.

Being that there are unrepentant fascist forces going about freely in the world (and I'm leaving Ukraine out of this on this occasion) it only makes sense that Russia and China presents an united front as allies just like 80 years ago.

LOL Problem is, the condition is that tariffs are to be avoided. So if it is a product that is cheaper to send to the US despite tariffs, then the $144 will not be used. Furthermore, it will not be the average, but in a few select cases. You've taken the average work hours and multiplied them to a conditional and far above average wage rate. The number is unusable and unmeaningful.

Completely nonsense and unable to argue against the fact that Mexico has a lower life quality than the US because of lower per capita PPP and lower wages. It also suffers immense brain drain.
Yes Mexico does have more soft power than any one else thats why largest flights of US are with Mexico thats on top busiest land border and
Mexico has more soft power than anyone else (in the world??), which is why Mexicans are attracted to the US by American hard power? This is you arguing with yourself from earlier. As I said before, are you a schizophenic and are P, M, and C different people??
it is not cheap tourism by international standards as those are going to limited areas.
It is by American standards.
Mexico strong demographic growth shows that only it can stand next door to US.
WTF does this even mean? Canada stands next door to the US with 1.4 births per woman. Are you trying to break your own record for most retarded thing said with every post?

Nope, you're illiterate. Article says he wants to make war because Mexican drug cartels are sending in too many drugs to the US, fentanyl being one of them. You're confusing Mexico with China. China's the country the US wishes it could still spring Thucydides' Trap on. With Mexico, America just wants to keep Mexican people and drugs away.

Investments is so much that it does not matter. that basic figures will be surpassed.

That higher standard of living should translate into higher life expectancy, less debt and less dependence on foreign workers.
Did you remember when i post debt to GDP link of Mexico that essentially didnot change post Covid. and now compared it to US. US government is spoon feeding its bankrupt population. The fact that Mexico airports can handle US flight traffic is all i need to know the effective management and quality of work.

Mexico population has always grown much faster than US for past 70 years.
It is by American standards.

WTF does this even mean? Canada stands next door to the US with 1.4 births per woman. Are you trying to break your own record for most retarded thing said with every post?
Canada has dysfunctional population with mismatch of skills and the population that it imports will not rescue it from sinking. thats why construction so expensive.
Nope, you're illiterate. He wants to make war because Mexican drug cartels are sending in too many drugs to the US, fentanyl being one of them.
This is the Soft power of Mexico that despite all its negatives it attracts so much people and investments.
