Is NATO afraid of China?<\/b><\/span><\/a><\/h1>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

NATO was formed in 1949 by 12 countries to form a defence coalition against USSR, which was a significant force then. A cold war was initiated and last until USSR disintegrated in Feb 1991. By that time NATO has grown to become 30-member intergovernmental military alliance with a 2% GDP worth of contribution to NATO.<\/p>

When Cold war was ended, suddenly the existence and purpose of NATO becomes a question. They needed a common enemy to sustain NATO and also the defence industries in these countries.<\/p>

No military operations were conducted by NATO during the Cold War. Following the end of the Cold War, the first operations,\u00a0Anchor Guard\u00a0in 1990 and\u00a0Ace Guard\u00a0in 1991, were prompted by the Iraqi\u00a0invasion of Kuwait<\/span>. We all know Iraqi invasion was on fake WMD claims, but NATO needed to destroy their stockpiles of unused weapons and initiate a new industrial military complex aspirations. By this time, US is the major contributor for NATO.<\/p>

\"\"<\/p>

This is exactly looks like NATO is the henchmen for US, since NATO is almost fully funded by US. If US asks NATO to go with me for fighting, they will go. Remember 3 of 5 permanent UN Security Council Members are in NATO.<\/p>

This Group, led by US, went on to destroying many nations and killing innocent civilians. Starting from Iraq in 1991, Bosnia and Herzegovina intervention, Kosovo intervention, War in Afghanistan, Libyan Intervention, and Syrian intervention, NATO have gone on killing people changing democracies, all in the name of war on terror, demonizing Islam & Muslims. While US has spent more than handful of Triilions of dollars, China was silently build their nation and upbringing their people from poverty.<\/p>

When China’s economy is growing in leaps and bounds, suddenly US and other NATO members who are G7 Rich boys, realise that China will soon overtake them singlehandedly. Now G7 and NATO (or simply US who represents both in a big way), afraid of China. Though combined GDP of these G7 or NATO is far far higher than China. Look at this picture:<\/p>

\"\"<\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

There is nothing to worry economically as a group, but individually most of these G7 countries and NATO alliance countries economies are somehow tied to China, including US. Therefore, US is afraid of China, but also brining in NATO as a facade to show grand support for anti-china stance.The economical retaliation by US through NATO or G7 will not work, as US cannot and never replace China for those countries.<\/p>

Then what is the justification of NATO, an intergovernmental military alliance, is issuing strong statement on China? Even though NATO and China are several thousands kilometres apart, and China is not posed any military threat to NATO, either by statement or deed.<\/p>

\"\"<\/p>

Then Why NATO is afraid of China?<\/strong><\/em><\/p>

Because US is afraid of China, and NATO is almost fully funded by US, hence NATO has no choice but to sign on the dotted lines in the statement prepared by US.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
