    Nobody is going to “set” anybody in the right path. China and Vietnam meet to discuss economic cooperation. We are not interested in interfering in each other’s foreign policies.

        For me, aiding is what the gringos are currently doing which is deliverying all of the weaponry, ammunitions, intelligence, and media backing.

        I wouldn’t call Vietnam trading with the colonial entity as “aiding”. Yes, the ideal is to shut every connection with the entity. However, aiding sounds as if Vietnam is doing equal damage as the Americans. It is false and kind of malicious to conclude that Vietnam is impacting negatively as the USA on Palestine.

            Israel has many trading partners. China is the 2nd largest only after the US, whilst Vietnam is nowhere to be found in the top 5. The other guy suggested that Israel’s 2nd largest trading should set Israel’s Nth largest trading partner on the right path, if China really does it, they would be hypocritical. Thankfully, China is not stupid.

            You said “it’s a well known fact”, but you didn’t know that there are many more countries who trade with Israel? Or did you know but decided to single Vietnam out for some reason?

            I also don’t appreciate people conflating trading with “aiding in genocide”, as if we literally send fighter jets to kill children.

              If you trade with people doing genocide you are complicit with genocide. China doing it doesn’t make it ok either. It’s disgusting to see them and any other country do it. Not sorry.

              Also, I wasn’t talking about other countries. I was talking specifically about Vietnam because that’s what the topic was. Don’t try to do a misdirection. The topic was Vietnam. You asked for sources. I gave sources for the other commenter. It’s not my fault you took offense to them. Maybe stop trying to defend a legitimately bad thing. Trading with fascists that are raping, murdering, and committing genocide, who are not only open about it but proud of their inhumanity, is supporting said fascists. Which most would consider a bad thing.

                If trading is the same as aiding a genocide, then we can stretch that logic to plenty of other situations as well:

                • Why should my country Mexico keep trading with the scummy USA that funds paramilitary groups that exterminate, rape and commit plenty of heinous acts?

                • Why should Africa keep trading with Europe if europeans are arming fascistic militias that are actively raping, murdering, and committing genocide?

                • Why should the global south keep trading with the USA if the USA is a fascists scummy country that continues to fuel genocide and death around the world?

                By your logic, we are all aiding genocide same as the USA. We are all as despicable as the kid killers of the entity and their weapons suppliers of USA.

                  I was about to write this too lol! 😅

                  Also, the whole global should stop trading with Europe or Latin America should have stopped trading with the genocide apologetic Spain. China and Vietnam should also stop trading with the Japanese
