LOL "Dump" is right -- reminds me a bit of "garbage collection" and "memory dumps" in C or C++ LOL
even if zelensky sues for peace, russia is likely going to ask for a lot more than they initially did. cant underestimate putin's ability to get fooled a third time but surely this time he be asking for more land and total disarmament of ukraine.
Well it's not up to Zelenski since it's 99% the Americans' call (I've got boxes of popcorn ready for how he's gonna pivot and try selling a most unsatisfactory peace -- or how the U.S. will finesse in his replacement, poor man!!!).
None of these Global South basket-case economies do (not counting Russia since they think of themselves as Europeans, ultimately, whatever the politics of the moment)...what makes one preferred over another is what's interesting to parse out...I wish I knew how these things work...SDF has been very educational but some of the claims made are really surprising, like what @Bob Smith said....
Argentina isn't a global South country. They're no more global south than Australia is.
Yes, I personally know Argentinans (one's a real screamer in bed LOL) and that Hitler retired there (just kidding!) but they're considered Global South by others -- including many in the West (the same folks for whom Africa begins with Italy and Asia with Poland LOL).
What are these distinctions meant to achieve anyways? As far as China is concerned, it should categorize countries only based on which ones are allies, which ones are redeemable over time, and which ones are irredeemable enemies.
Like Brazil, Argentina is another country of the future, and will always be. These are countries that lack China's innovation, entrepreneurial spirit, productivity, and manufacturing prowess, and will be stuck in the middle income-trap forever. Many people in these countries behave like uninformed ignoramuses - just look at the recent election result in Argentina, they voted someone who not only supports organ-trading, he also advocates child-selling.
