Ahmed Adel – Aletho News Sept 7, 2022
Liz Truss as British Prime Minister does not bode well for peace in the Asia-Pacific region as her stance on foreign policy is quite predictable. During her tenure as Foreign Secretary in Boris Johnson’s cabinet, Liz Truss obviously spoke many times on foreign policy issues, but often in a manner that seemingly appeared she wanted a revival of the British Empire. In fact, the British press called her the most hawkish politician in the Conservative government.
Her so-called toughness is especially evident in her stance towards Russia and China. For Liz Truss, both Russia and China are threats to humanity. Despite having this belief, it is evident that she in fact knows very little about these countries, especially when we consider that she had earlier this year confused Russian regions with Ukrainian territory and even more recently said Ukraine had survived a lot of invasions – “from the Mongols to the Tatars”, without realising Mongols and Tatars are one and the same.
And in this light, it is remembered that a year ago an official British document described China as a “systemic competitor”. With such a view, it is not surprising that London has created a lot of problems in its China policy. The British government condemned Beijing for its human rights violations in its western Xinjiang Autonomous Region, expressed dissatisfaction with Beijing’s “Security Law” for Hong Kong, and even welcomed the visit of American politicians to Taiwan. All of these provocations naturally aggravate Beijing.
This conservative approach could interfere with normal economic and trade relations between the two countries, which are contradictorily important to Britain as China is its third largest trading partner. Rather, by inflating anti-China sentiment, the British government wants to distract people from the country’s massive internal problems: high inflation, rising fuel prices and increasing poverty.
It is clear that Liz Truss will continue the anti-China line of her predecessors. Her newly appointed foreign secretary, James Cleverly, has vowed to take a tough stance on Russia and China.
According to Jonathan Sullivan, director of China programmes at Nottingham University’s Asia Research Institute, Britain’s so-called “pragmatic diplomacy” has lost its reputation.
“In ordinary circumstances, I’d say the new PM would ultimately pursue a more realistic and balanced approach to foreign affairs once in office, but the UK’s reputation for pragmatic diplomacy has taken a battering in recent years,” he said. “Labelling a major trade partner a threat would be a remarkable development, but the fact that it is not totally inconceivable speaks to the uncertainties that exist around Truss and the negative momentum that has built up around UK-China relations.”
None-the-less, it is ridiculous to hear the British talk about a so-called Chinese threat considering the country has not been at war since 1974. Meanwhile, during that period, Britain has battled in the Falklands War, Gulf War, Operation Desert Fox, the invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq, and the Libyan and Syrian wars, among others.
After Brexit, the UK wanted to prove that it was still a great and relevant power without the EU and participate in global processes. One of these points is the South China Sea, where the UK plans to gain a foothold. Under previous Conservative prime ministers, it was expressed that the British Navy needed a regular presence in the South China Sea. They also plan to build UK naval bases in the region, like in Brunei.
So far, there are no permanent bases, but last year the British Navy’s newest and most powerful aircraft carrier, Queen Elizabeth II, sailed through the South China Sea. Certainly, under the Truss government, British warships will patrol these waters only for the sake of provoking China. There is an external reason for this – like the Americans, the British would claim that they are sending their fleet to distant lands to ensure “freedom of navigation” off China.
In addition, the desire to play an important role in the Indo-Pacific region is demonstrated by the UK’s participation in the new military bloc AUKUS, established in September 2021. There is no doubt that the Liz Truss government will continue to commit to its obligations under this alliance with the US and Australia.
All this goes against the vital interests of China and the wider East Asia region. But it is likely that the British prime minister will go in this direction. The question is whether she will be able to achieve her objectives in containing the Rise of China, something that is seemingly unlikely.
It is recalled that only days ago the Indian economy surpassed that of Britain, meaning that the former colonial master has slipped to sixth place in the global GDP ranking, with India rising to fifth place. This also comes as research has found that two-thirds of UK families could be in fuel poverty by January. With compounding economic and societal issues, it appears that Truss will continue in the same mould of Boris Johnson in not dealing with this and instead prioritise the attempt to maintain Britain’s relevancy in the world.

It is hopefully a blessing for us that so many ignorant morons with an obsessive will for power, get that power.
The veil is falling.
Let them do their worst.
They will fail.
Never forget from day one Liz Truss is a rothschild apparatchik
she works for him
Boris stol over £ 300 million of our money throwing the UK into poverty he have this to the ukraine
on rothschilds orders
what we need is some loyal politicians from the UK to work for us
OPERATION STARLING
A breifcase carrying over 300 banking cerificates and bearer bonds worth almost £292 million
was stolen in a mugging in the City Of london on 2 may 1990.
The Times newspaper reported next day the haul was worthless to anyone bar the legal recipients.
The bank of England made a similar statement, while secretly informing banking institutions world wide that they could still be cashed.
The jews of New York were involved in several crooked money deals with George Soros Sheldon Adelson and Sarah Nutenyahu, and had undisclosed links here.
The london link in this heist was Mossad informant Keith Cheeseman, who under various names had convictions for financial extortion and monetary racketeering, he had tried to buy several UK football teams which jews do to launder large sums.
At one point he arrived in court in a beautiful Saville Row suit in a silver Rools Royce, he later got a 6 year sentence for 318 ficticious loan applications from the Beneficial Finance and loan company.
Cheesman turned Queens evidence against the New York mafia and Mossad, over the stolen bonds and was then found murdered.
In 1990 £77 milion in the stolen certificates were found in a routine bag check at Heathrow,
security men later repeated the claim that Oliver North wanted to deal the bonds for black operations with the Mossad on wars on Iraq and later Iran.
Saddham Hussein refused to accept US oil payments in the dollar and asked for any other
currency, as the dollar was pretty well worthless abroad, this was why Iraq was invaded.
Also Mossad wanted to steal and destroy the ancient artifacts in the Museums, Iraq was called the cradle of civilisation, ina long term plan to rewrite history, the jews wanted to wipe out
and change the past.
The three men had all charges dismissed after Israel made pleas for the mens release,
one later bought a racehorse for £77 Million which was kept in Ireland, Mossad used to sell millions of Ectasy tablets to the Irish paramilitaries for money raising activities.
The IRA tried to trade their share of the bonds, and a huge squabble began between the IRA and Mossad, the MI5 chief at the time was Sir Patric Walker, who mindful of his pension
allowed Mossad to almost control the operation.
This caused much criticism among intelligence staff, who resented Israels control of the UK.
Liz Truss is another jew paid whore for zionism
dont forget this
Don’t get me wrong fellow truthers, I love women and am proud of my lovely Irish wife, BUT…
Any man who is prepared to take orders from a woman is not a man but merely a neutered male. Proper men make the way safe for their women to follow. Men build houses but women make homes.
“This conservative approach could interfere with normal economic and trade relations between the two countries, which are contradictorily important to Britain as China is its third largest trading partner.”
Third largest, but Germany used to out trade the UK in China by 5 to 1. And this was under EU trade agreements.
Since Brexit, the UK has no real trade deals. Even the EU deal is a fraud, and the UK is tied down by caveats galore.
Given that the EU was reconfigured for the benefit of the UK when we joined, so we could thrive. The UK failed, failed in a market designed for UK success. UK trade outside the EU was even more dismal.
Before Brexit, it had become clear that bankrupt Britain was in rapid decline, and that massive counterweight to the UK, coalescing around the EU, was going make the UK very insignificant. We are of course, referring to Russia.
The timely death of Lizard Chops, is probably more significant than we currently understand. King Charles 3rd, plans to slim down the firm. I’ve no doubt that Prince Andrew will be well looked after by his mother’s estate.
A smaller Royal unit, will reflect the UKs future profile. The UK officially slipped to 6th in GDP rankings, but the truth is, we are closer to 9th or 10th, and the head of the LSE is crying in his boots, because the City has lost its sparkle. There are now other insurance centers. London is no longer the go to deal.
Charlie 3rd will become a thorn in the one party state rump, and this will remove the Elizabethan luster, that came from a publicly silent monarch. Sure, Lizard Chops had a mouth on her behind closed doors.
As for imbecile Truss, she is now intoxicated with MI6 goon juice. It’s hard to comprehend that the UK has produced two Foreign Secretary’s who have embarrassed the UK on the world stage, and then went on to become PM. Boris the Nazi with Russis, Truss the Nazi with China.
Even if the UK avoids getting Sarmatted, the future of bankrupt Britain look dismal. Brexit let the Imperialist genie out of the bottle.
The nasty party (Red Tories Inc) has made the UK the nasty country, especially as many in high places around the world, know Covid was made by Porton Down, and unleashed by MI6.
Yesterday I mentioned the forgone line of succession. While this looks very secure, I wouldn’t be so sure. Harry might still become king. Because if we look as the events since 9/11, to the present day, I’d say anything is possible over the next 20 or so years. I can see Harry returning to the UK to take his position as King Harry the 1st. #motivesgalore
When will people stop believing the lie that the scum in front of them are in charge? This whore is no more in charge of britain than the pope is in charge of the church.
Ask yourself a simple question. Why are your owners doing what they’re doing in the jewkraine? Answer that and you can predict every single order that Ms Surgical Support will receive for however long we have to put up with her.
this Trussi is the best symbol of
british no more ruling the waves
hybris . german chanceler Kohl (cohen)
was already german megalomaniac but
this Trussi tops it .
it always makes me laugh how these ridiculous dumb f’kin broads like Truss – Hillary is another one that comes to mind – who couldnt fight their way out’ve a wet paper bag and who’d scream blue murder if they got so much as a well-deserved back-of-the-hand in the pie-hole –
all of a sudden act “tough” when they get a bit of power… and how they’d more happy to blow up the planet to “prove” themselves… as long as – God Forbid! – they dont break a fingernail in the process.
WOmen in Politics: An EXISTENTIAL THREAT to LIFE ON EARTH!
Tony O’Neill re “I love women…”
Im always wary of anyone who claims to “love (all) women”… since
Although I’ve probaly got more “nothches in my belt” than the rest of the commentariat here combined…. Ive almost always found most women to be shallow, vindictive, vacuous, back-stabbing bitches…. who, once the “gloss” wears off, will be only too happy to make your life a TOTAL misery!!
and if you call me a misogynist, youre obviously too THICK to comprehend that the REAL misogynists are, if you know ANYTHING at all about them, OTHER WOMEN!!
Anybody who uses the word nazi when writing a post or article, I will not read. Using the made up word nazi shows they have no concept of the real world, or, real history. They are stuck in a hollywood fairytale worldview.
I have woken up feeling different: Britain has ideas, but most people and countries in the world are inert, like animals, whose continuity is the same old boring routines
Britain is a washed up nation of 65 million people with exports less than the Netherlands (with only 17 million) and yet somehow Liz Truss thinks Britain is going to “contain” Russia and China. Sure it is. These British still think that since they’re the lapdog of Zionist America and have their heads up the Rothschilds bums so far they can see sunlight, that they’re some kind of great power. It ain’t the 1800’s Liz. She seems to have not gotten the memo, Great Britain isn’t great anymore.
It’s the same tactic as many corporations use. Promote the woman to the top when everything is turning to sh*t so she gets the blame.
Truss is a CIA puppet. The THICKBrit populace are jingoistic morons who still think that Britain has an Empire (the call it being a ‘world player’ now).
Truss will eventually attack Russia directly and Britain will burn.
Are the Zionist Overlords planning to eradicate the few remaining Anglo-Saxons left in England by sending them to die in some new war against Antifa Russia? lol. While the apes & wogs will be left on the Island to inseminate the white pussy with their simian seed..
Ross: thanks for input, and I’m glad I’ll never hear from you again, unless you use another name.
Looks like Putin and Russia are held in sway by Hollywood. Prince Phillip was a Nazi, just saying…
This stupid cow isn’t going to do anything because the country cant do anything she is the minister of wind and piss. I can only assume the point of this article is to give us all a laugh. And those Ukrazies really put their trust in these clowns!? This Tory witch co authored a book with priti useless Patel about how the British working class are the laziest people in the world hopefully those savages her and her ilk gleefully imported will show just how productive they can be when things get ugly this winter.
Re: Women in Politics
Back in the day….we white hetero males went with the feminist/equal rights flow. Sure..why should be concerned if women want to enter the male world re: jobs etc…even politics. Until recently it didn’t seem to matter.
However…I harken back to high school and a female teacher we had…my classmate quipped “she probably has teeth in her vijajay”
I agree with many comments above re: current crop of women in politics…it is a disaster.
Most, if not all, will be future cat ladies…bitter resentful childless sows/cows who are in denial feminism (and Men Are Pigs programming) does not liberate them but destroys them….yet to subliminally compensate their ruined lives by trying to be more MALE than males.
They don’t have the same hard wiring as men , women lack control of emotions, and thus increasingly spiral out of control once they are empowered to the point that they become a danger to all under their authority.
Boris Johnson was a clown….Truss is only 47 years old and seems lined up to be another Iron Lady Thatcher 2.0.
Calling Truss a stinking embarrassment and an utterly vacuous imbecile would actually be a compliment considering her attributes and faculties. It just keeps getting worse and worse for citizens of the Jew-K, Jewnited States, and Jewrope, the parade of degenerates, retards, immoral ass-puppets, a continuous reeking shit-stain on the fabric of humanity, each one somehow even more putrid than the last.
So Truss wants to pick a fight with Russia and China and put them in their place, eh? Ok, then that wrinkled battered prison pass-around cum sock should literally lead the way. Strap a parachute on her, hand her a rifle, and drop her into Red Square. Send that Jew c*nt Tony Blinken with her. Talk about send in the clowns…
Pick a fight with Russia and China? lol !!!
Brits are like their kosher ((( American ))) farced cousins….haven’t won any MAJOR conflict for hundreds of years…never been seriously attacked…..but join forces to bully and destroy other nations and cultures.
Big tough Brits under MR. Margaret Thatcher beat up the Falkland Islands thousand of miles away……losing an Aluminum (WTF??? )battle ship
A MALE leader would have the common sense to not provoke a war with superpowers, but as we discussed in another thread..women do not have the same critical thinking ability.
Sorry Liz but we are having a hard time distinguishing you from Trudeau, Macron, Merkel, Biden and Trump.

“Tony O’Neill re “I love women…Im always wary of anyone who claims to “love (all) women”… since”
I rake your point Peter. I should have qualified that by saying I like the ‘idea’ of women, It’s true, many are not worth knowing.
As to ‘notches on belts’, well that is a private matter and one I have never felt the need to mention to either men or women.
“and if you call me a misogynist, youre obviously too THICK to comprehend that the REAL misogynists are, if you know ANYTHING at all about them, OTHER WOMEN!!”
Dear Peter, I would never call anyone names regardless of what they said. I believe in Freedom of Speech and am very tolerant of other peoples’ views. I may be ‘thick’ but am a good and witty conversationalist which I have found to be most useful when meeting NICE women.
Another one who seems to think she is in any way relevant, because she’s become the leader of a Mickey Mouse economy with a Mickey Mouse army. It’s just tiring. That’s all.
Not to disagree, hope springs eternal yet, or maybe just imaginating the alternative is enough.
Besides, there was never a (good) choice. At least, Liz isn’t short for Lizard. Or, it could be a man trying to be a woman, or some other critter…
Exports do not matter except to the bankers’ slaves, always running around trying to “earn” money. I would save energy by disappearing the slave master
In order for us to accept their one world leader first you have to have a long line of dipshits.
