The U.S. has revealed a new strategy to prioritize Pacific nations in its foreign policy, seeking to temper concerns over climate change and development in a bid to counter China’s growing influence in the vast oceanic region.

U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris announced the new commitment, including plans to open more U.S. embassies, in a speech delivered virtually to the Pacific Island Forum leaders meeting in Fiji on Wednesday. Regional leaders and diplomats have been meeting in Suva since Monday.
 
“We recognize that in recent years, the Pacific Islands may not have received the diplomatic attention and support that you deserve. So today I am here to tell you directly, we are going to change that,” Harris said in her speech.

"Political correctness is a doctrine fostered by a delusional, illogical minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it’s entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end." - Alan Simpson, Frontline Video Interview

Translation:

"We need to figure out how to establish a system in Asia where the Big Guy still gets HIS 10 percent as we spend the taxpayers money to buy influence and get under the table kickbacks as we launder it."

Nothing new about this. For over a decade at least ONE of the GM automatic transmissions are made in China. IIRC,GM even built the factory and sent GM technicians to China to teach them how to run the factory and manufacture the transmissions.

I have NO freaking idea how much they paid the auto workers union chiefs to let them get by with this without going on strike,but you can bet your ass the union leadership got to dip THEIR beaks into the cash pool,too.
Anyone who isn't paranoid in 2021 just isn't thinking clearly!
