It IS a complicated issue.Obviously china ha...well. It IS a complicated issue.<BR/><BR/>Obviously china has a vested economic interest in Sudan that trumps international opinion. Naturally, China isn't trading with sudan because it WANTS the genocide to continue. China is trading with sudan because it needs to be able to sustain it's rapidly developing economy, which incidentally, is also vital to domestic social stability.<BR/><BR/>Personally, I think it's a bit odd that the bulk of the blame is placed on china. To me, it feels a bit like a case of "I don't like John because John does bad things and now I hate Jane because Jane doesn't hate John like I do."<BR/><BR/>The world should put pressure on Sudan itself instead of attempting to flog a 3rd party. Of course, I'm not sure the world should put too much pressure on sudan (such as using economic sanctions) because I worry that may put undue stress on the Sudanese populace. There's always a chance that in the course of punishing the sudanese government, we're actually punishing the innocent civilians.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
