This is fake. What Hill is referring to is a speech by the Russian head of the LDP, Zhirinovsky, who had as much influence on Russian decision-making as Hakeem Jeffries.

It wasn't supposed to. It was supposed to give The Philippines (and other states) legal standing should the unthinkable happen and a shooting war break out over some reef in the South China Sea.

Part of the tragedy of this is that Europe has been a party to one of the longest wars of recent memory with the explicit objective of weakening a rival power. They thought the war would weaken everyone except them.
9/So what is Europe to do? Not this...It has to wake up and understand that an alternative international order is being put on the table. It is not based on rules but hierarchy and extraction. Tepid finger waging will lead to domination.

Russia, where one party decides everything: "Dictatorship! Unfree! Blasphemy! Heresy!"
America, where one party decides everything: "This is the best system that has ever existed, and ever will exist. Just as The Founders intended."

The real story of the 21st century is that Americans gave away so much freedom that forgot to keep any for themselves.

I think this is correct. Also look at Intel basically handing itself over to Washington to be a state owned enterprise.

Ironic that Europe could so badly misunderstand the dynamic between vassal and lord. Any American president that gives Brussels (or London) a fair deal is going to look weak.

Campist leftist politics is uniquely vile towards exiled communities, from Syrians to Venezuelans. The moment these groups fail to perform “correctly” in unfolding political crises, their identity is stripped away & replaced with smears.
Such accusations are so predictable at this point.

I would like you to imagine the American reaction if an Air Force pilot was killed during "an encounter" with a Chinese spy plane off the coast of Hawaii. Do you think "a statement" would be the end of it?

From Wikipedia: a mid-air collision between a United States Navy EP-3E ARIES II signals intelligence aircraft and a Chinese Air Force J-8 interceptor on April 1, 2001...The ambiguous phrasing of the statement allowed both countries to save face and defused a potentially volatile situation

Counterpoint: when was the last time the PRC fought a war beyond its own borders? Was it when the US killed a Chinese pilot off Hainan? Was it when the US flattened the Chinese embassy in Belgrade?

At this point, the US has two options:
1. Accept that states maintain spheres of influence ("Sucks to be Taiwanese!")
2. Admit that it wants to be a global empire. ("All countries belong to America!")
