    Actually it’s not for China. That was China’s promise to the world. No matter what happens as long as you don’t block trade from me China will trade with you. They even do this with Taiwan, and believe me, China always keeps it’s word.

    There are countries accused of all sorts of things, yet China will never stop trading. Russia, Iran, North Korea, Belarus, Serbia, Egypt, I could go on. What does this say to BRICS nations if China picked a side. They’re trapped by their own promise. But it’s one that keeps them consistent regardless of how the world turns.

      You’re telling me that if was Nazi Germany, China would be doing trade with it. And you call that country socialist?

        You think you have a gotcha, but you’re actually about to unveil a very hard truth of why China is always neutral. Yes, China would trade with the Nazis, or more accurately did. And in return, they protected 250,000 Chinese from the Japanese.

        One nations opponent is not another nations. It’s not for China to decide who is right or wrong. Thus as China always says, China is not a party to this conflict.

          You’re literally comparing Chiang Kai-shek politics to the supposed anti-imperialist character of the actual - supposed heir of the men and women who fought Chiang Kai-shek - chinese diplomacy, by doing business with the nazis of today, without it being to save a single chinese, btw. But you’re right in something, is not for China or other country to decide who is right or wrong, is for the people of the world. And the blood of any human should boil by knowing what “israel” is and what it’s doing to the Palestinian People for over 70 years. You are basically saying that Marx was wrong when he condemned English colonialism in Ireland, or when he was outraged by the murder of Abraham Lincoln. By your metrics, the founding of the Comintern by the Soviets was an imperialist act. You should read some fucking Lenin or stfu about imperialism.
