Wow! Solomon Islands refuses US Coast Guard ship port access

[Gary K]

As a response to Peloisi's unwanted visit to Taiwan Solomon Islands told the US to go pound sand when US ships ask for port access. Our arrogant approach to the world has isolated us completely other than those nations we control by monetary means.

It's what we get for always sticking our nose in other nations' business.

They fear China more than us...I don't blame them.

We're both horrible but China is not incompetent.

I don't buy that. It's the US who tested nuclear weapons on the Solomon Islands. We are also the only nation who has used nuclear weapons in anger. This has to have a great deal to do with their anger. They see the US decline and have lost their fear of the US.

Also take a look at the number of nations who haven't cooperated in the sanctions against Russia. They don't see Russia and China in a negative light as they are buying from Russia and talking about joining BRICS to get away from the US financial bullying. China's Belt and Road Initiatve has made them allies as they are pouring money into other nations.
