Apparently against abortion, even in the case of rape (like a 10-year old (!) being raped and getting pregnant, but his main worry seemed to have been the abortion and calling the abortion as much of a crime....dude), doesn't want school children to learn the basics about sex in school, sceptic about COVID vaccines, supports free gun possession, denying climate change, one of those people who say others 'decide to be homosexual', etc. Every single point sounds like the typical Trump/Bolsonaro/conspiracy nut (of course this all comes from English-language things like the ever-so-reliable Wikipedia, so if these things aren't actually true about him, or exaggerated, I'd like to know ) If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

BTW to be practical, China is busy struggling with its economic problems currently and it has no desire or motivation to be dragged into the middle east conflicts though most people feel sympathy for Palestinian civilians. rafalgorka 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What most people would agree is that China should be smart enough to avoid a war. A hot war is the dumbest way to deal with a issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rafalgorka 1,392 Posted October 23, 2023 #9956 Share Posted October 23, 2023 And what about China in Sri Lanka? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From China’s perspective, Sri Lanka is one of many countries with financial services and infrastructure contracts with China. It’s not more special than others, what may be a bit of unique is that it was facing a default while others were not. rafalgorka 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They may or maybe not on the list of 120 countries with lending relationships and 150 countries with infrastructure contracts with China. I can’t memorize all of them and their uniqueness. And I have to admit I even never hear the name Zanzibar before. Most of time I just don’t know and don’t care. Still thanks for your appreciation of those idk projects.
