The three Pacific island countries are "grasping" China and the United States at the same time, and their attitude is very arrogant; if Biden does not give money, they will have to find China, and how will Biden deal with blatant blackmail?
Pacific island countries threaten the United States: if you don't give money, you will look for China
Money is not everything, but no money is everything
Reuters reported on February 16 that a number of Pacific island countries sent a letter to President Biden, asking the United States to continue to send money and fulfill its promise to stand with itself. For example, Palau President Whipps clearly wrote that the delay in the US Congress is beneficial to China and to those politicians who want to strengthen cooperation with China and "sever diplomatic relations" with Taiwan.
President Heine of the Marshall Islands pointed out that the refusal of the US Congress to send money may weaken people's confidence in the United States and encourage some to agree with China's temptation. The point of view is much the same, the United States does not "help the brothers", then don't blame the brothers for turning their faces and not recognizing people. The faces of these small countries were laid bare in the incident.
According to the consistent style of the United States, it will not easily interrupt its support for Pacific island countries, because after all, hundreds of millions of dollars in foreign aid a year are simply a small amount of money, and the United States can afford it. Then there is only one possible answer: the intensification of infighting between the two parties in the United States makes it difficult for the main body of the state to concentrate on responding to external crises.
According to public information, the Democratic Party's package of bailouts for Ukraine and Israel may be closed in the Republican-controlled Senate, and many important figures, including the president of the Senate, are questioning the rationality of the Biden administration's aid to Ukraine. It was thought that this would put a financial burden on the country and that the end of the war would be far away.
Compared to Ukraine, the importance of the Marshall Islands, Palau, and the Federated States of Micronesia is insignificant. If these three Pacific island countries are generally knowledgeable, they should not be like parasites and repeatedly reach out to the United States to ask for money. After all, the dollar is not blowing in the wind, it needs the Fed to turn on the money printing machine, which will consume a lot of manpower, material resources and electricity.
The United States is in decline, and small countries want to reach out and ask for money
In connection with the above-mentioned incidents, I would like to make a few comments.
First, with the decline of the United States, there will be many countries that will pick up the wool of the United States.
The idea of these small countries is very direct and realistic, and if the United States sends money, they will stand on the side of the United States; on the contrary, if the United States does not pull out a dime, they will stand on the side of China, and they will be angry with the United States half to death. Biden is limited by the opposition of Republicans, or can only do his best to delay the pace of appropriation, and be a moral "old man".
The United States thinks that it will be able to stabilize its allies by making empty promises, so it thinks too much. As everyone knows, the Marshall Islands, Palau, and others are already too poor to open the pot, so they are waiting for the United States to send charcoal in the snow. But we know that there is no love in the world for no reason, why should the United States help these countries to cover the bottom, is it just because of their special geographical location?
Second, the US foreign strategy has begun to shrink partially, and the United States has become more pragmatic than ever before.
One of the pragmatic benefits is that the United States has saved a lot of money by withdrawing from Afghanistan, and similarly, the United States has shifted the responsibility of supporting Ukraine to the European Union, with Germany and France taking the lead and acting cheaply on its own, and the United States has deferred the payment of its membership dues to the United Nations and refused to pay climate compensation funds to underdeveloped countries......
Once the United States squarely faces up to its own shortcomings, the world pattern will inevitably be reshaped, and this is a mutually reinforcing relationship. This shows that the United States is beyond its strength and has difficulty in coping with the external situation. Under such circumstances, the Pacific island countries are still asking the United States to send money, and they will not be unhappy if they do not open any pot and mention which pot.
Third, the United States seems to only like to use money to smash people's hammer deals, but it has never thought that the hundreds of millions of dollars it gives to Pacific island countries every year can make money and help them build an industrial development ecology.
In stark contrast to the arrogance and unreasonableness of the United States, China advocates non-interference in the internal affairs of other countries, and China is committed to achieving mutual benefit through economic cooperation and partnerships. Although this approach has been slow to produce results, it can ensure that China's input is productive, and China's foreign policy is always under control.
Biden should really calm down and reflect on why his allies only reach out and ask for money, are they all dwarfs and disabled, and cannot be self-reliant? The fact is that these small countries have long been lying flat, they only care about enjoyment, they only open their mouths, and as for making themselves work and contribute, it is simply better than climbing to the sky.
The country lacks the ability to make blood, no matter how much you help, it will not help, which is similar to the fact that Palestine is besieged by Israel and the economy collapses in an instant, and what we want to say is that the United States should really use its financial resources on the cutting edge. For example, we should vigorously develop high technology, create more jobs, block the passage of refugees, and quickly stabilize social order in the United States.
If the United States is still too busy to take care of itself, how can it take care of the Pacific island countries that are not related to it. Therefore, there is a high probability that the $7 billion political support fund will be gone. Israel intersects with profit, and profit is scattered, and there has been a fatal loosening of America's circle of allies, which has been unthinkable for the past 20 years.
A piece of advice for Palau and other Pacific countries: Establishing formal relations with Taiwan while blackmailing the United States will only offend China and the United States at the same time, and make them lose room for manoeuvre. The little bed bug, just thinking about the world's largest and second largest economies, if it hadn't eaten the bear's heart and leopard gall, then it must have been poor and scared, and it was anxious.
