  • Blinken or the US DO NOT have the authority to dictate to China what China can and cannot do.
  • @a9udn9u-vanced
    These people talking about China have zero clue about the country.
  • @johnc1873
    This Karishma lady literally knows zero about china . Not sure why Bloomberg keeps having her on to talk about what she knows so little
  • @victorteo4783
    Karishma Vaswani don’t even know what she’s talking about. Anthony Blinken’s trip to China is begging for an out for the US.
  • @wheniamfree
    freedom of navigation in the South China Sea? what evidence do you have to claim that there is no freedom of navigation? Unless what you mean is freedom for the US war machines to freely roam there. If the US agrees for China to do the same in the gulf of Mexico, China would agree.
  • @mrconfusion87
    China's response to Blinkered: NO RED CARPET and NO Senior Officials (just a city-level bureaucrat at best) to greet him! 🤣🤣🤣
  • @mariyamwaniki
    It's not Blinkens job to " give China an out". What a silly headline
  • @trumpbuddha1053
    Why the US officials love to travel to China? Who’s begging who?😂😊
  • @bl4ckb3ll
    Blinken is a very bad guy with no remorse at all.
  • @gj8550
    China will do what China wants to do. It is clear from the way that Wang Yi spoke to Blinking in Alaska. The China Russia relationship is rock solid from the top down and bottom up. Trade between the two countries is growing at an unprecedented rate and Russian students are flocking to study at Chinese universities. The two countries complement each other in areas of technology, energy, minerals and manufacturing capacity. Playing hardball with China would simply further cement this relationship.

    He is going there to borrow money because Yellen did not get the funds when she was there.
  • @honey-il7ic
    “To got China cooperate” what a Master tone! Whom u think ur are! U can not even ask ur kids to cooperate!
  • Beggars can't be choosers, but who is the beggar and who is the chooser?
  • @mkh9164
    Blinken should stay home & not wasting his time.. China has been calling for two sides to work together instead against each other for few years.. too bad US is acting like a jerk..
  • @jinny3008
    Freedom of navigation had never been an issue in this part of world until US showed up.
  • @LokeKS
    Can't lie without blinken
