Who said China has more influence than US? You said China is not a big player in international affairs, China is just an ATM machine for other countries, but you fail to know money eventually talks, US has today's influence is also due to its wealth, if China is not a big player to start with, tell me what countries are, would you?
Wrong again, US have its influence because it is able to forge a bond with country, even those they went to war with. That is what we called Politics. US become powerful first, then rich.
Again, China have almost no say in international, do tell me one thing China have successfully altered in the course of international politics due to its influence in the past 40 years? Even small country like Switzerland have some say in international politics . If China is a big player in the international politic, then who isn't?
National wealth has every thing to do with places in international politics, start a poll here and find what people think.
Again, then do tell me why rich country like Japan and Germany don't have much power in international politics?
lol start a poll here? As if people who regular in this forum is any sort of expert.
