CHINA AND SPYING

CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY JUNE 22, 2023
SECRETARY OF STATE ANTHONY BLINKEN MET MONDAY WITH CHINESE PRESIDENT AND DICTATOR XI JING PING. BLINKEN EFFECTIVELY CEDED TAIWAN TO BEIJING, SAYING THE U.S. DOES NOT RECOGNIZE THE DEMOCRATIC AND FREE ISLAND AS INDEPENDENT FROM CHINA.
BLINKEN ALSO SAID THE SPY BALLOON INCIDENT HAS BEEN PUT TO REST, BUT I THINK I CAN SAFELY SAY THAT CHINA HASN’T PUT IT TO REST. THIS ATTITUDE HAS BEEN A FUNDAMENTAL FLAW IN U.S. FOREIGN POLICY FOR DECADES. WHAT WE DO DOESN’T AFFECT WHAT OUR ENEMIES DO. WHEN WE GIVE IN TO EVIL, IT MERELY ENOURAGES EVIL.
THE WALL STREET JOURNAL REPORTED ON MONDAY THAT CHINA AND CUBA ARE NEGOTIATING TO ESTABLISH A NEW JOINT MILITARY TRAINING FACILITY ON THE ISLAND, SPARKING ALARM IN WASHINGTON THAT IT COULD LEAD TO THE STATIONING OF CHINESE TROOPS AND OTHER SECURITY AND INTELLIGENCE OPERATIONS 90 MILES OFF THE FLORIDA COAST.
COULD THIS TRIGGER ANOTHER CUBAN MISSILE CRISIS AS OCCURRED IN THE EARLY SIXTIES WHEN THE SOVIET UNION PLACED MISSILES IN CUBA AND WE WERE ON THE VERGE OF A NUCLEAR WAR? PUT NOTHING PAST THE CHINESE COMMUNISTS. THEY WANT TO TAKE OVER THE WORLD. ARE WE HELPING THEM? I’M CAL THOMAS.
