China does not offer security for others, it never has. China looks for vassal states to do it's bidding.
Have you checked Sri Lanka lately? China "touches" a nation and they get debt traps they cant repay, poverty and unrest as per Sri Lanka. Some few nations caught on early and cancelled loans from China. China offers little aid as the West and others do. Do not fall for the "China trap". Look elsewhere to do business.

It will always increase and feel good.... until the CCP demands repayment for the loans they give a country, and will require certain concessions if the country can't pay them back. Then these countries will see exactly how the CCP works.

Interesting how different the language is when it is China offering security to the sovereign state the Solomon Islands, and when it is America offering security to the breakaway province of China.
