China ambassador announces readyness to provide military assistance to Iraq

[Yongpeng Sun-Tastaufen]

China's PLAN is no match for USN right now.

China is calling Trump's bluff. 2020 election is going to be a nail biter for Trump. Trump can't afford a war with China now.

China needs more years to be military strong. Russia's Navy is pathetic. They even can't manage an aircraft carrier. China can't stand against a Whole NATO Navy atleast now.

I am not asking Chinese to move Ships and troops to Attack US, why would China and US fight ? If Iraq wants Chinese help rather than America so world should respect it ..

The rest of NATO isn't going to come to Trump's aid if he starts war with China.

What Iraq needs most is not military support, though certainly of prime importance, Iraq through the PMU and support from Iran has proved that it can handle threats imposed by non-state actors like ISIS, it can also inflict significant damage to state actors, even the US in asymmetric warfare.

Iraq's weakness is, like Iran, economic... it is resource rich but if the US imposes sanctions it can have a tremendous impact.

As such, a Chinese intervention would mostly be an economic one, to the benefit of China itself, which needs both a market and a non-naval road to its target markets as well as resources for its industries.

guys this is fake news, the Chinese themselves never said anything like that, it was just an Iraqi militia leader who said "we should get help from China/Russia" & that's it.
this thread should be deleted unless if OP can provide a link in which a Chinese official specificaly says "we will provide military assistance".

There was one Chinese member who stated the Chinese need to stop buying oil from Persian Gulf and buy from the USA. This is short sighted. It is vital that China stays out of the military conflict, it is important Iraq and Iran don't falter. Their strength is China's defense. Bullied countries need to look after each other.

That's the opinion from those individual Chinese members who are not China's think tanks.

We need to observe the actions of the Chinese government.

China will never be able to match American war machine. It’s just off the scale in development and can quickly supply losses in conflict for USA

China is the biggest capitalist in the world why making war when yo can make money?

If the US does genuinely leave Iraq it will leave a massive quagmire that the likes of ISIS are waiting to fill. They thrive on the weak and a major power is needed to support the Arab countries fight this scourge. This is a fantastic opportunity for the Chinese to fill the void in Iraq - help build its infrastructure and provide military support. They have a take no shit approach to insurgencies, similar to the Russians.

Chinese presence will be a huge kick in the teeth of Trump's America

Nobody knows if Chinas military is capable or not. What we do know is that they are shitting unlimited money.
