Like he needs to do that. Who in right mind would invest in US with what's going on right now.

There are lots of EU companies that want Europe to fold and accept marching orders from Washington.

The goal right now is to use the Russian assets that have been positioned in the US government to drive the world twoards accepting China as the global master.

I'd imagine countries that don't want to be owned by China are waiting for the US to get rid of the Russian assets.

China doesn’t want that shit, they liked the status quo.
