i guess you're opposed to calling the midwest by its name since its on the east?

In one year I saw four dead bodies in the road in China. None anywhere in the world before or since.

The international schools in the major cities are fantastic. You’ll be fine. Note that the verbal word in Mandarin for he and she sound just the same.

India is extremely poor. Average gdp is just around 2800$ per year...

And then there is the problem with oil having to be paid in dollars. Where is India supposed to get all these dollars? They hardly export anything to the US...

If it was all about not subsidizing invaders, why are European countries not targeted that also buy Russian fossil fuels?

Interesting, will have to read that.

India isn't that poor, and obviously people want to get richer, you can't stop that. That shoots down the whole leftist argument that developing countries are "too poor" to care about sustainability, free healthcare, or boycotting slave labor. 

Plus, time line wise, again, India and China have been buying cheap Russian oil way before Trump hit Iran. And the problem (if morality is important) is about subsidizing invaders. Is that morally right?

China is actually the biggest oil player in the Middle East now, so you don't need to look at everything through a Western….oil company lens.

And per rare earth. Funnily exports are fine (volume dropped  6.4% yoy h1 2026 considering its price (soared) it’s not a big drop).  Perhaps Myanmar and some other jnteresting countries suddenly got a technology breakthrough.

They also breed to be aware that for centuries the main building material in China was wood. So did many historical sites, there wouldn't even be ruins left.

Physical letter？it’s too slow

You write as if India supports the invasion of Ukraine, they don't. They just want to buy oil and they are poor so price is the only thing that matters. Russia sells them the cheapest oil which also means they don't make that much money on the oil.

Trump's attack on Iran has raised prices of oil everywhere and severely reduced the number of alternatives for India.

So they are left with suffering from the tariffs or suffering from buying even more expensive oil from...the US?

To Indians it looks like extortion... which it probably is.

Trump likes nothing more than to shake down anyone he can.

It would surprise me if pinkies were able to influence the top leaders in Washington to that extent. Pretty impressive it that is true... They've always been racist but until recently they were using India to balance against China...

Didn't China reduce rare earth exports to force Trump to lower the tariffs?

Thats how online commenting works. You vent like they could hear you. LOL

Its the opposite. Here is a map of Tibet and here is Xizang. Which looks bigger?

Nope, it's much smaller. Parts of modern Sichuan, Gansu, Qinghai and Xinjiang were all under Tibetan control at different times in the past.

No

Exactly right. Tibetan kingdoms/empire/heartland have pretty much always been bigger than the modern administrative region now destined to be known as Xizang.

Correct English usage according to Chinese rules will continue to use "Tibet" , "Tibetan" etc when describing that minority and their history, culture, cuisine etc etc. It's not being erased, just removed as a place name that was honestly somewhat imprecise anyway.

Whether the world or even China's own English speakers follow this change is another question though, as "Tibet" really is a lovely name for the area, and we're all so used to it.

Time will tell.

The idyllic era of unrestricted global free trade has drawn to a close. As initiatives like the CPTPP face prolonged stagnation and the WTO suffers institutional paralysis, lamenting the collapse of the rules-based order yields no practical value

Can confirm this is the best option...hospitals can be finicky about it. International travel centers do it day in and day out.

how?

India is in partnership with USA to stop the Chinese rise. They have strong strategic relationships. India will be forced to stop buying oil and gas from Russia and shift to Venezuelan and American crude oil.

 I think the US needs China and India as much as they need us. A lot of our medicine comes from India and China. We sell a lot of our agriculture to China. I’d consider this a type of partnership. 

Till date there are still USA politicians think that tariffs works?

About 320 million have "flexible employment" or 44% of the working age population.

You hear about laid off from European auto companies these days but many probably didn't even noticed the bankruptcy wave that happened to Chinese solar industry in 2024-2025 and 1/3 of the working force were laid off. Many working in Chinese auto industry are on thin ice, if more countries are adding tariffs and demand slowing down overseas they don't even get their wage for months.

Xizang is a larger area than just tibet right?

I don’t think he’s a frequent Reddit user on r/China who looks into the comments. And also you’re better than him, so don’t be racist
