The post that was quoted here has been removedThe only support that China and Russia offer is as part and parcel of their foreign policy, let’s not pretend it’s out of fellow feeling or magnanimity. It’s about spreading their wings and building their Empires. Based on the relative weakness of the recipient country.
How much has China and Russia donated through the foreign policy neutral COVAX initiative compared to their lady bountiful handouts.
The post that was quoted here has been removedDo you think India would have been better off without the British empire’s involvement?
Now, I ain’t sayin’ British imperialism was anything but resource-grabbing nastiness, but in the long run, do you think things would have been any different in India?
Really?
The post that was quoted here has been removed“ Do Americans or Brits claim that the USA's and UK's foreign policies are purely altruistic?”
I cannot speak for Americans but i do not ignore the fact that foreign aid, unless driven by domestic political factors ( which this may be a case of ) is purely an extension of foreign policy and geopolitical manoeuvring.
There are no altruistic kind hearted countries or governments only altruistic kind hearted people.
