Is China behind US in rally to take their neighbors hands?

To be the best, you got to embrace the hate. We are very fortunate in that regard. Of all those countries, I honestly don't give a rat *** about it. Perhaps, south korea but that it.

As I read, they rejected North Korea from AIIB ?
Russia aerospace still work with US while the sanction is going on.
Any link between those?

US still beg for Russia rocket to send them to ISS. So what do you think?

It doesn't mean US can't do it themselves.

Of all the countries listed by the OP, I won't consider the Philippines, Japan, VietNam as the most anti-China if we were to judge by the sentiments of its people. IMO, I would rank Mongolia as the most anti-China country out of that list.

With Vietnam and the Philippines, the hatred is primarily political. On the personal level, there are no hostilities. I'm pretty sure if people like @Rechoice, @NiceGuy, @Cossak see a Chinese person in trouble on the street, they would help, even though they won't admit it here on PDF.

With the Mongolians (not the ones from inner MG), I think it will be entirely different. There seems to be some kind of intense hostility against the Han Chinese on the personal level, rather than just political. No clue why. Not every Mongolians are anti-China, but I think there are a sizable number of them. Of all the countries listed, Mongolia would probably be the most dangerous place for an ethnic Han Chinese to live in. VN, PH, JP, SK are safe for an ethnic Chinese.

My personal ranking would be like this... from the most anti-Chinese... IMHO:

1. Mongolia (not political but primarily personal/racism)
2. Japan (political and inferiority-superiority complex)
3. North Korea (just for a laugh)
4. South Korea, VietNam (SK anti-China sentiment primarily from superiority/inferiority complex. VN is primarily political.)
5. Philippines (primarily political, before 2009, there were no problems)
6. Not sure what the other South and South East ranking would be.

Mongolia can continue their hate as they are landlocked between Russia and China. With Russia effective a major China allies, Mongolia survival is on our hands. We can ask Russia to effectively shut off any airspace of Mongolia.

It doesn't mean US can't do it themselves.

They can't now. Even they can't it will take some years to do it. They still need to be nice to Russia in some area as you mention if not the Russian can threaten to ban US from boarding their spaceship.

Buenos Aires Development Forum Paints US as Threat to Latin America

Speakers at the First International Forum for Emancipation and Equality have sharply condemned US policy toward Venezuela, with Bolivian Vice President Alvaro Garcia Linera saying that the US poses a threat not just to Venezuela, but to Latin America as a whole.

Participants at the International Forum for Emancipation and Equality in Buenos Aires have sharply condemned US foreign policy, with Bolivian Vice President Alvaro Garcia Linera going so far as to say that the US poses a threat not just to Venezuela's sovereignty, but to the sovereignty of Latin America as a whole.

"The United States poses a threat to the sovereignty of the countries of Latin America. It constitutes a serious threat to the lives of Latin Americans," Linera noted, adding that the US and Europe should recall their bloody history and remove their military and predatory corporate influence from the countries of the Third World before demanding political concessions from Venezuela.

Ignacio Ramonet, Spanish journalist, writer, and co-founder of Media Watch Global, agreed with Linera, commenting on what he sees as concrete instances of US interference in the internal politics of both Venezuela and Brazil. Ramonet stated that not a single day has passed since the death of Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez that the US and its allies have not planned for the overthrow of that Maduro government, citing a recent coup plot involving the bombing of the presidential palace and the murder of President Maduro and National Assembly Chairman Diosdado Cabello. "Now…Barack Obama has thrown off his mask, thrown morality aside and threatened Venezuela with a naval blockade," Ramonet added.

Ramonet stated that in his view, the Brazilian corruption scandal involving the partially state-owned oil company Petrobras is part of a "campaign aimed at delegitimizing the Brazilian government and resulting in new presidential elections, preventing the president from completing her term." The journalist pointed out that in the Brazilian Prosecutors' case against 54 officials, including 12 senators, 22 members of parliament, and the speaker of both the parliament and the senate, all but one are members of the governing coalition.

Pointing to the popularity of the democratic socialist policies promoted by Hugo Chavez and his counterparts throughout Latin America over the past 15 years, Ramonet noted that these policies are supported by the working masses because they have been successful in pulling 50 million people out of poverty and giving these people back their dignity.

On Saturday, Konstantin Kosachev, the head of Russia's Federation Council Committee on International Affairs, noted that Russia was concerned that the US may be planning a "déjà vu" repeat of the "Ukrainian scenario" in Caracas. Kosachev stated that the technology for producing revolutions includes street demonstrations, loud accusations of corruption against authorities, followed by "concern" from the US State Department over local law enforcement "exceeding the norms of permissible force," along with sanctions.

Kosachev recalled that US Congress recently passed a Law "On the Protection of Human Rights and Civil Society in Venezuela," which has been followed by sanctions and overt support for opposition forces accused of aiming to overthrow the Maduro government. Kosachev noted that "given all that has unfolded before our own eyes in Kiev over the past year and a half," the Russian Foreign Ministry's concerns over events "do not seem an exaggeration."

"These attempts to 'ignite' instability around the world from several ends at once, if one also recalls what is going on in the Middle East, cannot but cause the most serious concerns from any reasonable person," Kosachev concluded.

Kosachev's comments echoed those of Jesus Faria, Vice President of Venezuela's ruling United Socialist Party, who told Sputnik earlier this week that "the protest movements, the way we know them in Venezuela, are intended to burn the country down…This is the same tactic as we have seen in Ukraine, when the neo-fascist groups…toppled the legitimate government, setting the country on fire socially."

Latin American Countries Unite Behind Venezuela in Clash With US

On Thursday, Nicholas Maduro responded to the US decision to list Venezuela as a threat to its national security, demanding "via all global diplomatic channels, that President Obama rectify and repeal the immoral decree declaring Venezuela a threat to the United States." Supporting her Venezuelan counterpart, Argentina President Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner noted that it's "absolutely incredible…absurd and unjustified" for a global superpower like that United States to think that a country like Venezuela could pose a threat to its security.

Latin American Countries Want to Remove All US Military Bases / Sputnik International

Leaders from the United States, Canada and Latin America are gathering April 10-11 at the 7th Summit of the Americas to be held in Panama City, Panama, to talk about a variety of issues affecting the Western Hemisphere, including Cuba’s relationship with the United States as both countries thaw out of a decades-long diplomatic freeze.

Another controversial subject some of the member countries want to take up is asking the US government to close all military bases in Latin America.

"That is something that belongs in the Cold War,” said Colombian former president Ernesto Samper. "This is growing global economy and we have to leave aside all remnants of the past, especially unilateral politics. The bases are no longer relevant and should go."

This isn’t the first time that Latin American leaders have asked the US government to close its military bases in the region, and like previous pronouncements on the subject, it is expected to go nowhere.

The US has several bases scattered throughout Latin America, including in Cuba (Guantánamo Bay), Brazil, Puerto Rico, and Honduras.

Political observers call the upcoming gathering "historic" because of Cuba’s presence and what that may mean for talks between the United States and Cuba. This is the first time since 1962 that Cuba attends a Summit of the Americas. There is even speculation whether President Obama would shake hands with Cuban leader Raúl Castro (Fidel Castro is not expected to attend) as part of the US continuing efforts to normalize relations between the two countries after more than 50 years.

Thirty-one leaders are expected to attend the summit, including the presidents of the United States, Mexico, Argentina, Cuba and Venezuela.

If China is as powerful as US then our neighbors will all be friendly to us, that's the truth. When we have several squadrons of strategic bombers&transporters and AC-leading fleets, then none of our neighbor will dare show their finger to us. Currently we mainly use economic methods to keep the ties because it's now the only aspect where we can counter US's influence.

Also countries hate us don't mean to be our true enemies. Japan is the most anti-China country but you can see the tight economic tie with us, let alone other neighbors. If you remove US away from the earth, then all of the neighbors will become our friends in one second, but the problem is US is here and has heavy influence on many of the regimes. AIIB and "one belt and one road" is the first step to drag our neighbors and spread our influence worldwide.

We don't have so abundant budget and so powerful force like US in support of our global action now, and we know there're still a lot of domestic problems, so we need at least another 20-30 years to develop, and at that time if your kid meets my kid in the forum(if PDF exists at that time and they're so interested in such topics like we do) then I'm sure they will talk in a much friendlier way, so why should we be so hostile to each other now? We will be friends
