I do get your basic point I just think it might be a stretch unless part of the overall "wait it out until Biden or someone else gets in" strategy. but they didn't bribe 400+ members of congress so our companies are benefiting bigly or moreso with us there.
Yeah I mean I don't know why they'd want to push that but money is usually the most apparent reason. Another reason is tying resources to a fixed place.
Another reason could be to make it easier to spark a conflict there. They're more interested in a change of leadership right now, in the US, than they are fixing prices. China is asshoe, but China is smart asshoe. They think further ahead than that, usually. For China, the big jackpot is a Democrat president.
wouldn't it be cheaper to pay off the Taliban? China would have the edge over the Russians for sure and India too.
the "pro status quo" argument is making the most sense.
Cheaper doesn't mean better
