sure, chinese interests are global, aren´t they?
you call grasping at straws, but I call it strategic game. too bad: we both would be the best friends on earth if you acted more reasonable. it is very unfortunenate, today, for vietnam, I can tell you, china is a country, nobody of us is wanting to talk of. you do your stuffs, while we go into opposite direction. alliances are useful if you are weaker and smaller than your opponents. by the way, when we sought alliance to foreign powers such as Portugal and France, you were still stuck with closed door policy, and most of chinese had no clue there is a world existing outside China.
I have stated it numerous time to you - It is Vietnam that sold China down river.
Relations went to hell when you unilaterally decided that the Soviet Union is your best buddy and dug your future into a hole. Imagine if you had selected China during the Sino Soviet split - Chinese would bend over backwards to accomodate you in the modern age.
The current predicament of the Vietnamese nation and people is caused by yourselves.
