With a global population pushing 8 million people, in spite of the mass casualty event that is COVID or the Wuhan Virus, you will find that the majority of violence is due to the struggle for resources. The most precious of which, is water. You will also find China neck deep in resource acquisition, construction projects, and funding third world countries on a bi lateral agreement. These agreements may work well for China and country X, but not so much for country Y or Z. Good thing we have the UN and organizations like the World Health Organization that investigated the Wuhan Lab. Do not expect any organization to hold the PRC accountable. Yet the US has the democrat party that wants to get in bed with the CCP and emulate them in the states.

Ask India and SE Asia how wonderful working with the PRC is over water rights. Or human rights. (Ask Tibet, the Uighars, Myanmar…)
