Well, if anyone will look at the list of military conflicts in Xxi century, this person will easy find, that China started or participated in zero military conflicts in XXI century (if not count permanent conflict with India, which UK cooked few decades ago at time of leaving India, in a pair with permanent conflict India-Pakistan), while "most democratic country in world" - US - spend no one day in current century without participating in military conflict or war... so looks like Cambodia should afraid not China...

Well, it depends... Currently Cambodia imports electricity, oil, coal and gas from Vietnam and Thailand. If dam will be constructed, TH and VN will lose money. And if speak from ecological point of view, Cambodia will burn less coal, oil and gas and produce less CO2 emission. If speak from geopolitical point of view - China is world economical leader (at least - #2) and neighborhood of small and weak Cambodia, do we have reason to wonder about Chinese influence?

Personally, I see the following: Western countries are trying to prevent the growth of Chinese influence in Cambodia and prevent a large project to build a power plant on the Mekong - a river in the basin of which there are already 26 power plants in China, 56 (!!!) power plants in Laos, 1 power plant in Myanmar, 5 power plants in Thailand, 18 power plants in Vietnam, and only one (1) power plant in Cambodia. Currently, more than 50% of Cambodia's electricity is generated by burning coal or oil. And these “activists” are protesting against the construction of a hydroelectric power station on the river, where there are already 97 other power stations. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydropower_in_the_Mekong_River_Basin They are protesting in one of the poorest countries, which is forced to constantly import electricity, which critically slows down the country's development. They are protesting against a hydroelectric dam in the country that, due to electricity shortages, has increased the burning of coal and oil to generate it by 40% over the past 10 years. Why am I not surprised that Mother Nature Cambodia is a foreign NGO, supported by foreign funds, and the leader of this organization is a 35-year-old foreigner (Spanish) who fled Cambodia before trial? And one more thing: I wonder why CNN didn’t mention that among the accusations was insulting the king? Therefore, my opinion is that these children are victims of global geopolitics, in which it is beneficial for politicians to keep Cambodia weak and dependent on Western loans and grants and away from Chinese influence.

Are we talking about "peaceful" Greta Thunberg, who been arrested and detained for public disorders and disobeying a police order 6 times in past 12 months in UK, Netherland, Sweden (twice) and Norway (twice)? Well, then we have list of 4 not free countries by version of Cambodian ‘fearless young activists’...

IMHO: "90/180" rule is implemented by MFA, but border guards aren't part of MFA and their computer system doesn't control "cumulative duration" yet, and guys on the border have no time to manually count "cumulative days", they just check overstay by latest stamp in the passport and maybe "no more than 2 border crossing by land or sea per year" rule.

Me? Please read my post again: "major Biden donor and supporter John Morgan said"

I take this your "bla-bla-bla" as "no". Thank you.

Major Biden donor says he won't fundraise for Harris if she's nominee In an interview with ABC News on Sunday night, major Biden donor and supporter John Morgan said that if Vice President Kamala Harris is the nominee, he won't fundraise for the Democratic ticket. "It's one thing to vote for somebody; it's another thing to raise millions of dollars for somebody; you have to really be in," Morgan, a high-profile Florida lawyer, told ABC News. Morgan, who says he's a "Biden/Manchin type Dem," told ABC News he was all in on Biden but felt Harris would be too far left and lose in November.

Are you writing this because you have access to Biden's medical records and saw with your own eyes that "there is no diagnosed medical condition"?

https://munich.thaiembassy.org/de/page/visaexemption Please note that a total stay of 90 days within 180 days (from the first day of entry) may not be exceeded. If a longer stay is planned, a visa must be applied for in advance. https://london.thaiembassy.org/en/publicservice/84498-faq Furthermore, foreigners who enter Thailand under this Tourist Visa Exemption Scheme may re-enter and stay in Thailand for a cumulative duration of stay of not exceeding 90 days within any 6-month period from the date of first entry. https://brussels.thaiembassy.org/en/page/faq Furthermore, foreigners who enter Thailand under this Tourist Visa Exemption Scheme may re-enter and stay in Thailand for a cumulative duration of stay of not exceeding 90 days within any 6-month period from the date of first entry. So, looks like it really exists

Nope. These, who "know all to well the real Trump" are already on the dems side. Please read again my first statement - I'm talking about undecided conservative and center. All I’m trying to explain is that with Kamala and Pete, the dems risk scooping up fewer votes than will pass them by to the reps. And, by the way, I wonder why candidates should be from political aristocracy - governors, senators... clans... Why not from professionals like Blinken or Yelen?

Nope. Pure marketing. While Kamala will sell ticket to woman, Afro-Americans and Latino, and Pete will sell ticket to gays and youngsters, nobody will sell ticket to straight White Americans, especially to conservative ones. So dems will lose undecided center and that will boost reps.

With such a tandem, a significant number of undecided centrists and conservatives will move sharply to the right and the Republicans will receive a significant boost in the elections. Less on presidential ones, but definitely on parliamentary ones.

Bullshit "foreigners who enter the Kingdom under this Tourist Visa Exemption Scheme may re-enter and stay in Thailand for a cumulative duration of stay of not exceeding 90 days within any 6-month period from the date of first entry" https://www.mfa.go.th/en/publicservice/questions-answers-on-thai-visa?cate=5d5bcb4e15e39c30600068d3

For your information: I think that Trump isn't better than Biden is. Trump is also disaster for US - neonazi orange clown. Both are disasters. Just different disasters. All I'm saying here: Dems are losing to Reps now.

Yeah, and attempt Trump assassination just confirms it, right.

I’ve been writing here for 2 years now that the Democrats have scared away the entire generation Z with the very sight of Biden - this generation, in principle, cannot imagine that Biden can correspond to their vision of the future, because he is the very personification of a distant and alien past. But every time I read from you “Nobody but Biden!”

those who need an agenda have already decided - they have joined either the Democrats or the Republicans, but those who are undecided need a person to convince... and the Democrats have no one to offer - all the persons are unconvincing

Normal states exchange, correct, that why Russia exchanged Bout to Griner https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viktor_Bout–Brittney_Griner_prisoner_exchange Litvinenko ran from Russia. Why you are talking about exchange in his case? Whom to whom to exchange? UK never agreed to extradite Litvinenko back to the Russian Federation - he supplied MI6 with information and was useful to British intelligence

Could you please quote me with "approve of murder"?

Up to you. Meanwhile you may read about Litvinenko https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexander_Litvinenko Did they not tell you that Litvinenko was a KGB/FSB lieutenant colonel who fled to Britain and collaborated with MI6 to obtain asylum? Well, sorry for breaking the illusion.

Tell it to Mossad.

Not a dissident: Litvinenko was formerly Russian KGB officer and traitor, who worked for MI6. Thousands of dissidents who do not agree with Putin live peacefully abroad - Kasparov, Khodorkovsky and many others. Russia doesn't care about them. Russia executes only those who were officers, swore an oath of allegiance to Russia and then betrayed it. Litvinenko was one of those. Similarly, this spring, a pilot was killed who hijacked a helicopter to Ukraine, killing all his helicopter crew members, and then received a new name and lived in Spain. Found and executed.

Unless God exists and will help, or miracle will help, Dems already lost...
