Maybe he got part of the billion plus Hunter got for Rosemont Seneca from the CCP. In truth 2 weeks before Hunter got the fat bank account Biden went to China with Hunter supposedly to prevent the Chinese from building islands in the South China sea for military bases. Rosement Seneca has spent 6 Billion illegally buying property and businesses for the Chines Communist party. The island in the South China sea are now complete. Biden is guilty of treason, aiding an enemy's military capability for money.Bruce » 05 Aug 2023, 12:37 pm » wrote: ↑ Did old Mitch cut in the Biden crime family with his Chinese deal?
https://www.9news.com.au/world/what-are ... 5267308How did new islands come about?China moved to start creating the artificial islands in the South China Sea in 2014, building them on top of rocks or reefs which were close to the water's surface at high tide.Dredging ships were used to scoop up the sea floor to build up the islands on top of the rocks. The manmade islands span an incredible almost 3200 acres of new land, according to research by the Asia Maritime Transparency Initiative.The space which the islands now occupy was previously not considered territory under International Law.A number of Asian countries have claims over the South China Sea, however China claims the islands as their territory, and is using the islands to further their claim over the region as a whole.In 2016 an international tribunal found that China had no right to claim ownership of the sea and ruled that China had violated international law in constructing the islands.What are the islands being used for?The entirety of the islands are being used to bolster China's military capability.Aerial photographs of the islands reveal the military bases do not even allow space for a tree.The military spaces host missile systems, radars, runways capable of handling heavy aircraft, fuel storage facilities to support military operations and naval facilities.Dr Davis said the resources concentrated on the islands give China the power to potentially overwhelm The Association of Southeast Asian Nations' military - which includes input from Brunei, Cambodia, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam.Using the islands, China has the potential to project military power all the way down to northern Australia or into the Indian Ocean. Why are the islands concerning?The islands, and the power they give China, are concerning for a number of reasons.As well as massively strengthening China's military capabilities in general, they strengthen China's claim over the South China Sea.They give China overwhelming power to control the very important international waterway, which much of the world's maritime commerce travels through.If China is allowed to control the South China Sea, they could control much of the world's international trade, particularly the traffic that goes through those waters.Trade shipments worth trillions of dollars pass through the South China Sea every year.Control of the sea would also give China a much greater ability to isolate and coerce Japan in a crisis, Dr Davis said.This will particularly be a risk if - or when - China starts military conflict over Taiwan
