Sucks, but the so-called “second world” is witnessing what sees as brisk business, deals with anyone from Canada to Taliban Afghanistan.

In some affairs, sure, like anything to do with business. But they’re so heavy-handed in others, such as literally believing “South China Sea” belongs to them completely, and so bad they tried to sink a small Philippine Coast Guard ship.
I was speaking in relative terms in regards to expansion. Relative to something like the US’s use of the Monroe doctrine, China’s handling of the south China sea is pretty mild.
While they are heavy handed in the scope of modern time…they aren’t exactly having their version of Teddy Roosevelt invading Cuba or anything.
Plus the Philippines were under American occupation for 50 years until the end of WWII.
