    You are thinking like an American, not a Chinese. Their ‘strong message’ was to build a larger navy than America has, develop nuclear ballistic missiles that will reach America, and develop 6th gen bombers.

        They do not intend to use it. Just the knowledge that they have it and CAN use it is causing the US to back off against warmongering rhetoric against China. However, it is China that is developing the stable allies because of their military might, and America that is losing stable allies because it is becoming militarily impotent. America did not have the resources to defend even the Ukraine, so no country is now relying on the US to even defend America against another major military.

          Like I already say the USA is taking down Chinese allies one by one and China is not using it’s economical leverage to force the USA to behave . Africa is fueled by civil wars backed by the west and they will continue to fuel new ones. Trade needs stability Europe is just moving a bit temporary to China because of Trump but they will come back to the USA if dems wins again
