Macron blocks NATO outpost in Japan amid Chinese complaints

Hes such a chinasimp
Rare Macron W 🇨🇳 👍
NATO outposts in Japan was probably going to be with a majority of US soldiers, so the block doesn’t change anything since US has a big presence in the region already. It’s like that friend who never shared the bills tells you he can’t make it to the bar. Yeah Jared you will be missed.
Except we all know the U.S. is aggressively containing China. NATO getting into the China containment business sends a terrible message.
Can you elaborate on the terrible message? I don’t think China prefers US to be in their backyard than NATO. NATO is purely defensive, so unless China had intentions to attack a NATO country it wouldn’t matter. But US has multiple defence agreements with some countries in the region and some of them is on China’s crosshairs. Which makes a confrontation with US higher then with NATO.
The hell does NATO need a presence in the Pacific for.
Good move. Thanks, Macron!
