The US has never liked China's presence in the Bahamas. The difference now is that Trump, unlike his predecessors, is going to do something about it. The fairy tale that Bahamians believe is that Trump, like his predecessors, will do nothing about it. As for "Musk is the new Putin", that is just too ridiculous to even try to answer.
Trump wants Latin America and the Caribbean to choose a side in the US vs China battle. Trump wants the rest of the continent to take an active stance against China. Mexico has already started by placing additional steel tariffs on China, and seizing Chinese products at ports that are being dumped at below-market prices. What will the Bahamas do?
This is the result of Biden's inflation. Americans complain just as much, which is why the Democrats suffered a historic defeat in the recent elections.
Of course, the Chinese won't get a fair trial in the US if even Trump and Biden's son can't get one. As a reminder, the US sees China as its main enemy on the global stage.
Hmmm, how would you qualify Biden? Despite his challenged mental abilities, he was able to initiate a record number of sanctions against other countries...
And Trump wants to deport migrants to the Bahamas if their home countries refuse to accept them. Given the above comments, the Bahamas is in for a rude awakening...
“This means that any investor in the Bahamas who is also registered as a US company AND has allegations of FRAUD labelled against them to acquire those assets AND has evidence brought to court that "establishes beyond doubt", direct quote, that fraud was committed, can have the disputed assets returned to the original owner.”
For your information, when you do business in the US or have assets in the US, it is always in the name of a company, so I am not sure what point you are trying to make. Any allegation of fraud is easy to make. Is it just a coincidence that when Izmirlian sued Harrahs (a US company) he lost in the US courts, but when he sued the Chinese he won (before appeal)? US courts are political. Both the current and the next US president have said it.
“Dream on. CCA is in the business of making money and the US is the best market to make it in. The only way they exit that market is if the US forces them out. Which they wont.”
Do you really think that the US under Trump is the best market for the Chinese to make money? Have you been following the news lately? They put their US company in bankruptcy, what kind of signal do you think this is?
“Russia had sanctions levied against them when they imprisoned the leader of the Russian opposition.”
I am not talking about sanctions, I am talking about the confiscation of all Russian assets in the US after the invasion of Ukraine. China has sold over $400 billion of US treasuries since this confiscation of Russian assets. It does not look like they trust the “US rule of law”…
