Russia's invaded georgia, Crimea, and went head to head against the US interests in Syria and sided with the brutal dictator Assad, and now obviously the full blown war against Ukraine.

Primacy is killing any possibilities for peaceful cooperation between China and the US. Peaceful growth is possible only if the US abandons its posture of war against China by any means. Any informed follower of events knows that provocations of belligerence and illegal activities are the calling cards of the US. On the other side of this aggression is a country thjat advocates peaceful coexistence and cooperation for mutual benefit. Out of these conflicts the West wants to establish a continuation of Western primacy similar to the primacy of the last 600 years. Its a new face for colonialism. The rest of the world is led by China with a trend toward equality among nations, elimination of hegemony or primacy and a world wide security architecture. China has seen the belligerencve of the West and as a response China will further grow its military assets. Aircraft carriers are being built together with smart UAV that can protect the Chinese mainland in the air, land and deep sea drones. If the US is belligerent its two vassals, United Kingdom, and Australia act as the tip of the spear. The presence of China in our world has given emerging nations respite from the threats of violence from the ANGLO-SPHERE. Two camps are being led by The US in the case of the West and the other camp which is led by the US and THE ANGLO-SPHERE. The West never thought that Russia would fight back when NATO attempted to surround Russia with military bases. The West did not count on Russia´s ability to recuperate its former strength. That is why the US paid no attention to the entreaties of Russia to not push NATO membership on Ukraine and Georgia. The failure to consider the security concerns of Russia led to thje invasion of Georgia and the SPECIAL OPERATION against Ukrainian genocide of Russian speaking Ukrainians. Because the opposition is now major, The West is discovering that NEO-COLONIALISM will not have the upperhand this time. Russia has already won. No matter what the US and allies do neither China nor Russia can lose. The Ukrainian conflict is the battleground for the continuation of Neo-colonialism or a new UNITED NATIONS CENTERED world order that protects the sovereignty of all nations equally.

I just hope that the ASEAN countries can walk that thin line between the super powers US and China and aren't as naive as EU-counties were over the last 2 decades where they followed the theory of interdependence when it comes to Russia. That is where Kishore is totally wrong in my opinion but I love his definition of diplomacy 46:02

[@joshtep6784]

There is nothing wrong with interdependence. Europe was naive to think that they could keep pushing up to Russia's borders without getting a bite back. NATO is like Jenga, you can only get so big before everything comes crashing down.

@@joshtep6784 Why does every country ask to join NATO? Were they forced? No, they suffered Soviet influence for decades and as a consequences were decades behind in development compared to Western Europe. The only way Russia gets influence in countries is perfectly on display at the moment in Ukraine. But sure, NATO bad! /s

While it is true that Asian countries have very different interests, China’s actions and rhetoric are giving them all a common reason to improve their military capability as well as draw closer to the USA.

[@jackzhou4813]

In the world political landscape, there is no justice, because every country is considering its own interests. Looking back on the wars that NATO led by the United States has launched over the past few decades, is it just? Of course, it is no exception for China to expand its influence abroad for its own interests. ASEAN is like the EU, and each country has its own interests to consider. It is of course right for Ukraine to join the EU to develop its economy. I don’t think Russia can find any excuse to embarrass Ukraine, but the Ukrainian government is wrong to be a pawn of the United States and has always maintained an ambiguous relationship with NATO, which is why Russia cannot tolerate it. , in the end it was the Ukrainian people who were unlucky.For a small country, there is not much right to choose, and it is even more stupid to blindly choose one side.

"In the world political landscape, there is no justice, because every country is considering its own interests" ..yeah then forget about environment protection / climate change or until the Martians coming to attack earth then you will realized how foolish you are. Why can't there be justice for everything? Your brain is too simplistic to comprehend how to live a righteous life?

Divide and conquer strategy. They don't want a United SEA Nation which will be a threat to them in the future. A United ASEAN means prosperity. Imagine hiring maids from Western countries. Hahaha

China has been building presence in the South China sea, claiming reefs and islands. This is expansionism and should be a big concern as this can create problems in the future.
