Chinese Ambassador Warns ROK Government to Not Bet Against China in Rivalry with U.S.

Here is China needlessly raising tensions with South Korea trying to treat them like a vassal state:

China called in South Korean Ambassador Chung Jae-ho and lodged a complaint, Beijing’s foreign ministry said Sunday, in a tit-for-tat after the Chinese ambassador to Seoul was summoned over remarks warning Seoul against betting against China.

Chinese Assistant Foreign Minister Nong Rong met with the South Korean envoy on Saturday and expressed serious concerns and a complaint over what it called an unfair response that South Korea showed about a meeting between Chinese Ambassador Xing Haiming and opposition leader Lee Jae-myung.

Xing said during Thursday’s meeting with Lee, chairman of the main opposition Democratic Party, that it is a wrong bet to believe that China will lose in the rivalry with the United States. He also warned that “those betting on China’s defeat will certainly regret it later.”

On Friday, South Korea’s Vice Foreign Minister Chang Ho-jin called in Xing and “sternly warned” against the envoy’s “unreasonable and provocative” remarks. Chang also warned Xing’s remarks could be seen as interference of South Korea’s domestic politics.

Exactly as how the United States treats South Korea too. It’s ironic that this Chinese ambassador was playing the words taken from Joe Biden’s visit to South Korea when Biden said the exact opposite: “Those betting on the US defeat will certainly regret it later.”

Only a nervous laugh came from embarrassed setnaffa who can’t counter the point.

Yes its true that setnaffa cannot counter KM’s point.

It is obvious that the US wants the ROK to play with fire when it comes to relations with the PRC.

But if things go really south between the ROK and PRC, the US will surely not come to the rescue of the ROK and instead throw the ROK under the PRC bus.

So it is important for the ROK not to unneccesarily antagonize the PRC for the sake of playing the favorite pet of the US.

No doubt the buffon Yoon with his limited brainpower, hasn’t figured that out.

Exactly. And not only that, they will try to blackmail South Korea to pay up billions more for the ‘protection money’ while fanning the conflict to make the issue more dire. Before anyone screams China bot again, I would like them to think how much betrayal South Koreans felt when that happened last time (and is still happening now).

America does treat all of its allies like vassal states. State Department is always meddling with their politics trying to get them to be more liberal, more diverse, more gay, more transsexual, more progressive, and finally more trotskyite flavor of communist. They do so while flying the rainbow flag and BLM flag.

The hilarious part is that they get useful idiots like KM and KP dancing to their tune all the while they are thinking they are anti-American Korean nationalists. Fools! The real nationalists were Park Chung Hee and Chun Doo Hwan. Both of whom were constantly bucking State Department influence and asserting real sovereignty, but to the applause of State Department, Korean leftists deposed them and “democratized” the nation.

I’ve wondered about this GrayBlack character.

Whether he was one of the Setnaffarians or doing his own thing.

Now that he’s toeing the official Setnaffarian line of bringing back Park Chunghee and Chun Doohwan, no doubt he’s a Setnaffarian.

Which brings us to this question.

When will setnaffa drop his sockpuppets and stand on his own two feet?

Or are we looking at Sino-Russo bots sprouting new identities as we speak?
