Iran is China’s 38th most valuable trade partner. The US is number 1. Who are sanctions on China by the US going to hurt most?

Definitely nothing to do with oil /s
Venezuela currently ranks as the country with the largest proven oil reserves in the world. Based on recent data from multiple sources (including OPEC and various energy industry estimates), the ranking is:


China supplies precursor chemicals (NPP, ANPP) to Mexico where the Sinaloa Cartel and others synthesize the finished product. Most of it is shipped across the southern US border. It’s disingenuous to say China is supplying Fentanyl to the USA - like supplying fertilizer is supplying explosives. The so-called “war on drugs” has demonstrably failed. And the definition of stupid is doing the same thing and expecting a different result. Perhaps dealing with why people feel the need to use drugs in the first place would be more successful?


Instead of click bait headlines, let’s try realism: “USA to pay 25% import tax on goods from India”.


This is the best summary could come up with: Killing innocent civilians is a legitimate war aim and the UK will sell you the bombs to do it. Because $$$$. Btw where is the envelope stuffed with cash? /s


It’s a stupid gimmick - just like air drops. If the US wanted it could go and open the border crossings for aid. Hundreds of lorries a day are required. Not doing that reveals the truth - starving mainly innocent Palestinians.


Not me, cos I run Arch. Actually Fedora but you know… 😉
Wrong approach. Make new free trade deals with other countries.
