Before starting, we& #39;ll dip into: 1. Alarming abuse against #Uighurmuslims 2. Deep-State surveillance & anti riot-gear 3. Economic Traps/Debt-trap diplomacy and 4. Army& #39;s growth + influence.

3. Economic traps/ Debt-Trap Diplomacy:
Nations like #SriLanka #Malaysia
#Djibouti #Montenegro #Pakistan #Kenya (and many more) borrowed; and now face incredibly high debts loaned by https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🇨🇳" title="Flagge von China" aria-label="Emoji: Flagge von China">. China uses this debt to gain influence and grab considerable power across https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🌍" title="Europa-Afrika auf dem Globus" aria-label="Emoji: Europa-Afrika auf dem Globus">.

Almost all debts are based on infrastructural credits sourced from China.

Hence creating long-term deals and cementing its position within that nation. (US old-playbook?)
