China gears up for next summit with India despite India’s planned boycott of BRF: Chinese FM

[KhanBaba2]

Wait a min, what has what u said got to do with what I said?:

more like this is a demonstration of the differences between a broad-minded and narrow-minded society'

Trade is trade. Money-making is more important. It's business as usual despite politcal differences.

Same goes for China's relationship with Japan and the US.

Business as usual despite political differences is already going on between India and China

 

[ohmrlobalobayeh]

Well, your answer is well within your reply.

India's not joining BRI initiative is exactly symbolic just like Chinese protest against Indian Presidents/P.M presence in Arunachal. It has never deterred both India or China from cooperating and doing business.

That said your broad mind and narrow mind anology is simply cheap.

Since on business front India don't find any specific benefit from OBOR or CPEC, since we have been doing billions of dollar business with China without that for quite long. We don't see any incentive for us in OBOR, it's as simple as that.

You are shooting yourself in the foot.

Business is business, both parties benefit. You get infrastructure and development, as well as cheap goods for the cheap people of india. Remember, we are talking about a poor country who can't even make their own national flag( https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.in...mand-for-tricolours-made-in-china-259952.html ) china makes money, while India gets cheap goods to sustain basic life for the benefit of her own people who would otherwise, live in destitution, including lacking the candles used in the latter's own religious festivals https://m.chinabrands.com/dropshipp...sale-markets-in-india-delhi-mumbai-14600.html and even the idols they do their namaskar to daily https://yaleglobal.yale.edu/content/made-china-millions-hindu-gods

This is remarked by Rahul Gandhi himself:

SALEM (TN): Congress President Rahul GandhiFriday mocked Prime Minister Narendra Modi's "Make in India" slogan, saying the country's market was now flooded with Chinese products.

"He gave you an empty slogan called Make in India but wherever we look we see Made in China products," he said."

Be it phone, shoes or shirt(including the smartphone/laptop you're typing this angry comment with on PDF) "you see made in China," he added.

"Now we want real made in India and real made in Tamil Nadu," Gandhi said.



I repeat: indians are narrow-minded. Her everlasting poverty and abysmal development is a demonstration of this.

Thanks.

Of course, this thread had to attract the usual butthurt and insecure trolls who know nothing about geopolitics and strategic thinking.

 

[PAKISTANFOREVER]

It is clear IMF is not going to give Pak any breathing room, and FATF will only make things worse.

But tbh, Pakistan is mostly irrelevant here. It is clear that India is more important for China's economic goals than Pakistan. The fact that we control the waterway that is responsible for most of China's trade says it all. Recently, China's attempts to remove the IOR region from Indian control via the "string of pearls" has failed now that IOR countries saw what happened to Sri Lanka and want to distance themselves from China. Maldives is a good example. Hence, China has realized it cannot arm-twist India either militarily or economically, so it will increasingly make more engagements with India such as this one.

Evidence for the above please?

Believing 300 terrorists were killed in Balakot and india shot down an F-16 is good geopolitical thinking........

Here is a map of the Malacca trade route, where most of Chinese Trade occurs

As you can see, it clearly goes through the Indian Ocean Region(IOR), a region currently dominated by India. China's "String of Pearls" was meant to dominate the Indian Ocean to secure its most important trade route. Unfortunately, countries have moved away from China because they do not want to debt-trapped. The Maldives just threw out a pro-China leader, and a pro-Chinese coup in Sri Lanka failed. Which means the only way for China to secure its economic interests in the region is greater cooperation with India.

And please don't troll and go off-topic.

The strategic importance of Gwadar is too avoid the straights of Mallacca as they can be choked by the might of the American, Japanese and South Korean Navies during a possible conflict. This is why a huge naval facility as well as a major city is being built in and around Gwadar. This will secure Chinese energy needs during a conflict.

You are forgetting the distance Gwadar is from China's major population centers. And even if everything goes to plan, it will never be possible to transport as many goods by land as by sea. CPEC alone will never be able to sustain China's economic ambitions, and China is smart enough to know this.

Anyway, this thread is not about CPEC, it is about the strategic implications of Indo-Sino relations. So please stop trolling.

Which is why Western China is being fast developed into first world standards and their connections to the Rest of China massively upgraded. Chinese naval presence in Gwadar will have HUGE strategic implications as it will give them a presence close to the Middle East, where over 50% of the ENTIRE planet's energy and oil imports pass through.
