The problem of depending on US is when they put sanctions on your country, diversify is always good.

[@Haz3dNightfall]

Surprisingly, I agree with your statement on diversifying investments with many nations instead of relying on just a few.

[@Noodleanrgry]

No thats not the reason , China asked to buy future oil and pay in Yuan as dollar is getting to costly (yuan and ruble are under presuure because of war) China have a risk to get stuck with to many extra Ruble from russia and have a deficit in Yuan already

[@firetree2007]

for this half year in 2024, more than 23 foreign country heads visited China, hardly anyone bothered, to visit India, only a few, tiny surrounding countries, to give Modi some face, attended his sworn in ceremony.

[@hengongchua6250]

For this half a year, there are more world countries leaders, diplomats and politicians who have visited China and Chinese leaders than India for the last 6 years. And during the G20 summit in India. Indian Foreign Minister said that India is the voice and leader of Global South countries.

@hengongchua6250 太尴尬了，上帝耶和华，圣子耶稣，圣母玛丽亚，真主安拉、毗湿奴、释迦牟尼、神王奥丁、谁能制裁的印度啊，怎么会有这么让人尴尬的国家存在。

[@pushpendraverma8463]

OK, why you worry about it😂😂😂

[@user-ij7jy1wv9b]

@pushpendraverma8463 我当然会担心，印度影响了我的心理健康，你想象一下，你吃着零食，通过TikTok观看视频，突然！印度出现了，印度的食物、恒河、街道、牛粪、这个糟糕的国家让你心情愉快和这个国家一样糟糕，让你肠胃恶心，他们甚至声称自己是领导者，上帝！杀了我吧，这是个美好的世界，我的好心情，看见印度结束。

[@khanimadshah]

The problem is united states don't have anything common with Saudis anymore, especially after Israel palestine

[@anthonyk423]

Saudi’s don’t care about Palestine. They’re friends of China because they have a lot of oil and China buys alot of oil. US produces most of its own oil but the Saudi’s need to US for protection and weapons which is something China can’t offer that

[@ronaldphoong]

Nowadays, paying more also means spare parts cost more. Common people buy based on sustainable maintainability. The more cars in the area, the cheaper spare parts will be. These are all common sense. If you don't see many American cars in Africa, it makes sense that it is beyond affordable to most. Let's agree to this, if the global countries are 95% poor people, don't expect these people to buy expensive cars. On the roads, China Cherry cars that are more than 20 years old are still running
