Last 48 hrs ..Some interesting facts

The #QUADThread

The last 48 hours have been interesting:

~France commits military support to India

~US & Germany block China's move in UNSC which blamed India for Karachi terror attack

~India deviates from 'One China Policy' for the 1st time by mentioning the new HongKongSecurityLaw in UNHRC

~US praises India's move to ban TikTok for 'furthering national security against Chinese spying'

~UK offers residence in UK for 5 years to 2.6 million people in Hong Kong, after which they will be granted citizenship.

~US bans Huawei for links to Communist Party of China

Things are definitely heating up, and it doesn't look like the West is interested in firing at China

only from India's shoulders.

Also nice to see that India kick-started this by being the 1st to stand up to the Chinese threat after a decade of fearmongering by Western analysts.

Not restricted to the past 48 hours, but Russia's deflection of Chinese complaints against the early delivery of S-400 missiles to India is a massive diplomatic reality shock for China.

And the best development during the last week of June 2020. Russia will deliver S-400 Missile Defence Systems a year early to India, despite strong objections from Beijing. China had been pressuring Moscow against the early shipments.

Genuinely surprised with this, given how pragmatic Russia has been in recent years in balancing its ties with different allies.

Shows two things:

~Russo-Indian cooperation has moved well beyond the old Cold-War alliance

~China's influence on Russia is massively exaggerated

If not Russia, then who is standing in China's corner of the ring, other than Pakistan and NKorea?

US has passed the National Defence Authorisation Act & will be training Indian, Australian and Japanese pilots in Guam,

an island which could well serve as a launchpad for future aerial attacks on the Chinese mainland.

Myanmar has called out China for arming terror groups and asks the world to help.

And finally, Australia is increasing its defence spending by up to 40% over the next 10 years.

QUAD is FINALLY doing what it was supposed to.
