It has been reported in several Telegram channels a news story come out of the zionist israeli Channel 15:
The Israeli army has begun distributing anti-drone nets to troops in Lebanon, with approximately 158,000 square meters already distributed and an additional 188,000 square meters being purchased.
Resistance FPV drones are causing havoc. No matter how many sq meters of anti-drone nets will protect the zionist occupiers in southern Lebanon.
An interesting point has been raised by Middle East Spectator Telegram channel - I quote:
"Iran has started to allow Chinese ships to pass the Strait of Hormuz after paying tolls
In China, where the FM said they reject the concept of tolls, the fee is being framed as a fee for ‘environmental and logistical upkeeping costs’.
By allowing Chinese ships to transit the Strait of Hormuz, Iran has effectively neutralized the leverage that Trump held over China during his visit.
Trump planned to pressure Iran, with the help of China, to open the Strait. But now that Chinese vessels are transiting freely, China won’t feel the need to be on board with this pressure".
Just deals for the rich white bas___ds. He should be negotiating for the farmers etc..... Didn't bother to send negotiators for our regular economy ahead of the visit.
I'm not sure what Trump hopes to achieve with this visit to China and what exactly the American CEO's are going to negotiate. If Trump is hoping that Chinese companies will enter into some joint venture with the west on AI, why would China do that. China not only has the strategic advantage in AI but the cost advantage also. The US has land to offer to build massive data centers etc. but once Chinese tech sits on American soil the Chinese will lose control of it. The last thing China would want is AI parody with the US which could easily be turned against them. As far as China setting up manufacturing sites in the US, again why? It is way too costly to do business in the US no matter what incentives you give them. Maybe the American automakers can sell rebranded Chinese EV's like Germany is doing so that the brand is kept alive on life support but that won't create jobs here in the US and those US branded EV's would never sell worldwide. My guess is Trump is hoping to cut Russia out of forming a strong alliance with China, leaving only China and the US to dominate the world markets except the US has nothing to offer China in exchange but expensive gas and oil. Which China is also becoming less and less dependent upon.
The Harvard Negotiation Project teaches that we should negotiate on objectives, not positions. Global Security is the objective. No nuclear production or nuclear power are positions. The lessons are in the famous book, "Getting to Yes."
I think Iran and the World would be better off without nukes but I'm not in their Cleric community. I'm afraid the war has likely created a surge in nationalism that increases the popularity for their selfish Supreme leader and the Ayatollahs.
Interestingly, the war has not created more nationalism or popularity in the US. This is probably due to the price and pain at the pumps.
Given that Iran will have to rebuild infrastructure now, I am afraid that the infrastructure spending will help their economy by producing jobs that will pump money into their economy. This will unfortunately help the Ayatollahs financially and tighten their grip on citizens. For these reasons, no wonder the Ayatollahs don't want peace and are fine with more war.
I wonder what good will CEO's do? They want to manufacture in China for the cheap labor and no regulations. it would be nice if they would move operations back to the USA. But let's be real. They moved operations to China and sold out the USA for greater profits.
Profits, not jobs in the USA, are their one and only concern, sadly. So why would American CEO's move operations from China to help us, our economy or the President? I don't have much confidence in USA CEO’s to do the right thing and help anybody but themselves and their shareholders, in that order.
I understand Apple basically built China, so maybe we would be better off negotiating with Apple to move production back to the USA? I'd settle for Canada, Mexico, Central America or even Cuba. lol.

Those CEO ‘s had this planned for the Ukraine with Russia’s defeat.
To play this plan again with China is pathetic thinking after invading Iran suffering the same result.
No change in plan?
Why worry about American neocons who have plundered their own country of prosperity .
America needs a dramatic make over and how can China help is humourous.
I think he’s just checking on his MAGA Trump phones.

Nukes are a hoax:
Factor that data point into the conversation and see how the probabilities become self evident.
Conversations still hinged on any mention of a nuclear bomb threat can’t - be taken seriously.
China's letting everybody else do the fighting, absorb the massacres, while they sit back and gain from the whole deal - it's not right!
It's wisdom on China's part.
"Wisdom"? Confucius say, "He who let others fight their wars, die in the end..."
