China is expanding its territory on a small island in the Caribbean considered to be in the “backyard” of the United States, according to leaked documents.
The island of Antigua, which is roughly 220 miles from the U.S. Virgin Islands, has been taken over by China, with the intention of turning the island into a Chinese “economic zone”, Newsweek reported.

There is an Air Force tracking station on that island. Very small but it’s used mostly for tracking launches from cape Canaveral.

Not far away in St. Kitts, the government has been in the business of “selling passports” to Chinese nationals for $500K-$1M. All they have to do is purchase a unit in these condo developments that sit completely dark and empty on hillsides overlooking the capital city Basseterre. The Chinese nationals don’t even have to set foot in St.Kitts to get the passport.

This won’t get much attention overall because this government’s focus is all in on Eastern Europe and the Middle East.
It would be interesting and probably disturbing as an American to come back for a day in about 100 years and read what the historians (likely Chinese) summarize about this period of time in the world.

Sounds like a prime spot to launch spy balloons at certain time of the year.

We've had a very small number of military assets there for many years.

Why do we care about this? I’m told we’re not to meddle in other countries and/or establish bases and influence there.
We need to focus solely on the continental US. Muh southern border!

Complete bullshite. We can eject China from this hemisphere anytime we want. Once they're deemed a threat, they're gone.

The Chinese are there to right the ship on their ecology.
China, a rich stalwart of encouraging a greener environment, will turn that island into a green paradise like they do back home.

China plays the long methodical game. They are going to colonize this area just like they are doing in Africa right now.

I have a very good friend who lives nearby in St. Croix and likes Chinese food. Connect the dots..

What will the Brits do about this?

Our politicians love China too.

Most of the world is poor and corrupt and are willing to whore themselves out to the highest bidder.
China is the highest bidder.
I don't know really what Biden is doing wrong, or what Trump coiuld do right, when it comes to this. Road and Belt was happening when Trump was president as well.
About the only thing we could do is outbid China, and where TF is THAT money supposed to come from?
