In the upheaval of President Donald Trump’s blanket tariffs, China is seeking common cause with jilted partners of the United States as it tries to extend its influence and take center stage in a new trade order — rebuilt without Washington.

Yeah that is terrible. It does seem like a common occurrence though when it comes to industrial mining, no matter who runs the operation.
Which was the whole point of the thread: it doesn’t matter by which power you get exploited, China doesn’t give a fuck about other countries either and they’ll happily fuck up other countries’ environments.
I don’t think that this is point of the thread. China isn’t looking to replace the US as the global hegemon. Australian mining companies also create ecological disasters abroad, but nobody confuses this with Aussie world domination.
