Donald Trump will participate in the first-ever trilateral meeting between the leaders of the U.S., China and Russia on the sidelines at the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) Summit in China next week, senior U.S. officials told reporters Friday evening.
Trump is expected to discuss Iran with Chinese President Xi Jinping and Russian President Vladimir Putin, the officials said, but he does not intend to discuss Russia’s war with Ukraine during the trilateral meeting.
Denuclearization will be the focus of the long-awaited trilateral meeting, though officials do not anticipate the leaders reaching any concrete agreement and are characterizing this meeting as an initial conversation broaching the subject.
They are technically currently at war with India. Over Indian territory they bought illegally from UK when India was a UK colony.
Apart from that they have also been aiding in wars like Vietnam and Korea.
Granted China may not be as much a warmonger as USA, but that is in part because USA was the global leader by far for ½ a century. China was not in a similar position to wage war. Hopefully they will be more peaceful than USA.
They have a border dispute with India. The closest to violence it got was a fistfight.
They helped Korea defend against the US.
Vietnam is a true blunder, but Vietnam was allying with the US against France and China.
And China is much more powerful and relevant than France, the UK, Germany etc. and that didnt stop them from waging war in the middle east and africa…
I mean from the 90s onwards. When Europe was much less relevant and powerful than china is now or has been for the past 10 years.
No people have actually died, but they have agreed to not use any kind of firearms.
No they helped North Korea attack south Korea:

Yes European countries used to be mostly scumbags too, but the difference is that today in EU, there are requirements for all EU member states to uphold human rights and respect the sovereignty of other countries.
Europe has improved vastly over the past 50 years, especially during the 70’s, USA, Russia and China have not.
Well that’s not entirely true, China has also improved vastly, although from a lower position. So China today is only about where USA is.
If I could trust China to improve, I would be quite happy with China taking over from USA, but unfortunately Xi Jinping is moving China towards a more totalitarian regime, using many of the tricks Putin used. Where Russia was also progressing before Putin took over.
Unfortunately USA has manipulated Europe to participate in some of their atrocities, so I acknowledge that we are not without guilt, especially UK. But EU was founded with a goal of cooperation between nations, while USA is working from a position of wanting control. And the problem is that China seems to be following in the footsteps of USA in that regard.
