    but it’s still within the interests of the chinese state

    Obviously lmao. Why the hell would a country do something for no reason

    The more Africa develops with Chinese cooperation, the more China gets access to wealthier markets to sell stuff to that they have good relations with.

      Why the hell would a country do something for no reason

      This is kinda astounding posting and i read it all the time everywhere. On one side we have western imperialists shamelessly and openly looting Africa for centuries, but liberals will suddenly expect China to just do one sided transactions that only cause them loss? And make it the implicit or explicit “both sides bad” argument? It’s also usually from the proponents of capitalism and free trade, which is in theory supposed to benefit both sides.
