The world is not chaotic, the United States has the final say, but this time, the White House, which has always been invincible, has kicked the iron plate, and the Pentagon, which has always liked to swim on the edge of the cliff, has also become a joke in the world.
On December 9, three things happened in this world that deserve attention, which are closely related to the United States, Australia, Russia and Japan.
First of all, let's talk about the first thing, the United States admits that it is a "robber", which is really a shame to be lost abroad.
On the 9th, the US Department of Justice said that the United States sold "seized Iranian oil" with a total of more than 1.1 million barrels and a profit of up to $26.7 million. At that time, four Iraqi oil tankers were on their way to Venezuela, but they were intercepted by the US military halfway, and then, without saying a word, the United States directly transported the oil back to the mainland.
In other words, in broad daylight, the Pentagon, which prides itself on being the "world's policeman and human rights defender," openly sent troops to steal Iranian oil, and then, without stopping, directly exchanged it for dollars.
The United States did not hide it, but admitted this matter in "righteous words" on the 9th, and the implication is nothing more than: This matter was done by the United States, the US military was a robber, what can Iran do with the US military?
This kind of shamelessness of the United States is indeed beyond the imagination of the world, and people cannot help but sigh endlessly, but the United States really shows "hegemonism, America first" to the fullest.
This can't help but remind people of another thing, in 2020, when the Syrian people were waiting for a bumper wheat harvest, the US military actually sent warplanes and dropped bombs, directly burning the endless Syrian wheat fields, and the local Syrian people felt desperate, but they could not help the United States.
In addition, the United States has not forgotten to dispatch trucks to transport Syrian oil in a dignified manner. Over the years, the United States has stolen and stolen the habit, and seems to have forgotten that the United States is a permanent member of the Security Council.
On the one hand, it prides itself on being the beacon of the world and a country of bright and upright, while at the same time not forgetting to take advantage of the world and rely on force to run amok all over the world, this is the United States.
If the United States does not repent and continues to be an enemy of the world, one day, the United States will pay the price for this.
After all, "America First" is ultimately unpopular.
The second thing, Australian Deputy Prime Minister Barnaby was diagnosed, and Morrison felt a headache. The weather is unpredictable, people have bad luck, and it is most appropriate to use this sentence to describe Barnaby's feelings.
On the 9th, Barnaby said that just arrived in the United States, before he had time to meet with Biden and Blinken, he was confirmed to be "infected with the new crown", and for the next 10 days, Barnaby will be isolated alone.
Barnaby stressed that he felt bad, that he was alone, and that the situation could get worse.
Morrison chose to call Barnaby and wished Barnaby "all the best".
Before arriving in the United States, Barnaby went to the United Kingdom, according to Barnaby's layout, next, the United States and Australia will conspire in the White House, and now it is good, Barnaby has actually been diagnosed.
It's worth noting that of all those diagnosed, Barnaby is Australia's top official, which is why Morrison is so worried.
For the United States, the unfortunate fortunate thing is that Barnabi has not yet had time to meet Witherton, and if Barnabi is confirmed to be diagnosed at the time after meeting with Biden, the situation will be different.
On December 8, Australia just announced a "diplomatic boycott" of the Winter Olympics, and on the 9th, Australia sent out the news of Barnaby's diagnosis, which can only be said that it is fortunate that Australian politicians have not come, otherwise, it will cause us trouble.
Of course, from another point of view, whether Barnaby was diagnosed in the United States or the United Kingdom, it shows that the epidemic in the United States and the United Kingdom is indeed very serious. Under the cold winter, how to prevent the epidemic in the United States from continuing to rage is the challenge that Biden has to face.
Finally, let's talk about the third thing, Russia called on South Korea to develop the South Kuril Islands, and Japan was angry.
On the 9th, Russian Deputy Prime Minister Trutnev said that Russia intends to set up a free zone in the South Kuril Islands and welcome South Korea to invest in the South Kuril Islands, and South Korean enterprises can obtain tax exemption advantages for up to 10 years.
Before that, Russia also said that next, Russia and India will use more rubles, rupees rather than dollars. This means that when trading in energy and arms, Russia and India will bypass the dollar settlement.
These two signals from Russia are unacceptable to the United States and Japan.
On the one hand, the dollar hegemony is the most powerful weapon of the United States, and Russia has seized India's arms orders, not to mention, and wants to abandon the dollar settlement, which is not to challenge the bottom line of the United States?
What made the United States furious was that India really agreed to Russia.
Another thing is that Japan has always regarded the South Kuril Islands as its own, and now it is good that Putin has not only deployed missiles and strengthened military deployments in the South Kuril Islands, but also did not forget to call on South Korea and other countries to invest in the South Kuril Islands. In the long run, how can Japan still "seize the island", and how can Kishida Fumio still wrench his wrist with Putin?
Inviting South Korea to participate in investment is only the beginning of Putin's move, in order to let the Russian Far East and the South Kuril Islands get more investment, next, Putin will throw an olive branch to more countries.
This means that the further back in time, the less likely Japan is to seize the South Kuril Islands.
Of course, if Japan wants to use force against Russia, the result will only be to cause trouble for itself.
Under the absolute power gap, all tricks are futile.
Let's see how the United States and Japan make next moves.
