how many people still remember "build back better world" (or something like that) - the supposed BRI competitor from the collective west with a few trillion dollar investment aspiration? Remind me of one such executed initiative and how much has been spent?
how many remember the "democracy summits" - the supposed pushback of "democracies" against "authoritarian regimes"? when was the last one held and what came out of it?
the rhetoric-spewing colonial states are giants in words but dwarfs in action. They are not to be taken seriously and don't feel an ounce of accountability for their verbal diarhea.
as for even domestic infrastructure, there is no appetite for new investment. Let's be honest here - the financialized capitalism in the west today, especially the US, is all about value extraction, not about building. When you can make risk-free money from financial engineering, why take on risky actual engineering? Profits are made through "owning assets" instead of "making things". The biggest disappointment of the wall street capitalists about China is that they cannot execute this gimmitry to control Chinese economy. This is why business interest is no longer an impediment for US confrontation with China. Of course, they can no longer compete against Chinese businesses in making cars, mobile phones, electronics, machinery, drones, ships, trains, and etc etc.
at the finish of the Zhuhai airshow, it feels time to add a few points -
1. the advance China has made in stealth and unmanned technologies is manifesting itself explosively - we are seeing WZ-7, WZ-8, WJ-700, Jiutian, CH-7, MD22, Killer Whale unmanned stealth drone ship, unmanned submarines, and many more. Stealth and unmanned tech is being incorporated in air, sea and land war theaters in numerous innovative combinations.
2. traditional Chinese strength in hypersonic missile technologies continue to accelerate with the introduction of GDF600 (a hypersonic glider bomb with submunnitions) and HQ19 air defense systems with 3000 KM range.
3. the famed A2AD concept is fully materialized with a multi-layered kill chain featuring numerous hypersonic air, sea and land-launched ballistic missiles including DF17, DF21, DF26, DF27, CJ100, YJ21 and more. This gives another meaning to the redudancy concept of overkill, ensuring virtually zero survivability of US carriers and other capital ships anywhere closer to Chinese shores than the second island chain.
in the law of the jungle reality of today's geopolitics like John Mearsheimer liked to point out, a couple of aircraft carriers at the bottom of the Pacific will shut up the belligerence of US politicians like marco rubio and lindsay graham. these clowns will never have their children in the US imperial army as cannon fodder but when they see their much-hyped military might fold like an origami, maybe they will stop their empty words of malice.
