Why in the world would NZ side with the US? Political suicide.
NZ is Chinas bread basket / milk bottle. They would be hurt more by blacklisting NZ imports.
We’re bending over backwards being ‘friends’ with China by ignoring all sorts of things.
It’s 30 years since Tiananmen Square .....tomorrow is the anniversary of Tank Man’s epic stand ....much braver than our Governments have been over the years.
“ At the top of every bubble, everyone is convinced it's not yet a bubble.”
the choice would be western values vrs the chinese system of values dont you think. dont these things out way economic considerations?
I don’t see Jacinda buddying up with Trump.
The open free trade we have had with China looks far more appealing for NZ and commensurate with traditional classical liberalism than the protectionist autocratic esque trade war Trump is going for.

Trump is leading his own economy into recession and has a Narcissistic personality disorder so I agree totally, i cant see him being reelected anyway if he continues on his current path, of course he can do huge amount of damage between now and then.

In 18 months we will find out when elections happen. I don’t know who will become president, but maybe someone with a little more tact would be appreciated
Seems there isn’t bull .....A2 share price much more important than human rights
I am by no means in support of the Chinese government quite the opposite.
Surely a welcoming open handed approach is going to be more effective in bringing Chinese people freedom than one of hostility. Trading nations, historically have exchanged the best ideas. Surely free flow of ideas as Chinese tourists come here and see what an open democracy looks and feels like are more likely to press and demand their own freedom instead of isolating ourselves.
