About this episode

The episode discusses the US's strategy of using proxy wars to undermine China's Belt and Road Initiative across various regions.

It is clear the US has decided to use the same sort of armed proxies it has already reordered the Arab World with to launch attacks on Chinese BRI projects without necessitating direct US military action - thus advancing its geopolitical objectives and maintaining plausible deniability at the same time. The emerging pattern is a series of US-engineered dirty wars launched all along China’s peripheries specifically to damage the flow of overland energy, raw materials, and finished exports at the same time the US is now openly imposing an expanding maritime blockade on China’s Russian and Iranian allies which in turn directly targets and blockades China itself - considering both nations count Beijing as their closest and most important economic and trade partner.
