China Troubled? or Troubling?

China has been in the news for all the wrong reasons in the last few years. Thanks to the Wuhan virus, 2020 and 2021 have been virtual write-offs, 2020 in getting to knw the virus and commencing the battle against it and 2021 for the recovering form it. Why does China behave so aggressively? Is it troubled from within? Does its behavior stem from the troubles it faces within and it lashes out at everything? This video seeks to answer that question, commencing from an analysis of the internal dynamics of the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) and the persona of Xi Jingpin himself to looking at the financial and economic mess that China finds itself in. It goes on to look at the demography of China and the contradictions therein to the issues of food, water and energy security. From here, having appreciated its fears and causes of the paranoia, we finally get to understand the actions of China towards its neighbors and the world at large.
This video is long at 47 minutes but the subject is quite complex and it was necessary to have a better understanding. It is also a continuation of my earlier videos on China. Here's a link to all of them that the viewer may view to better understand some aspects covered:

@@ChaxSimplifies You Explained China in very simple way. But in my opinion , one can buy everything except reputation. There is a dent on reputation of China after Covid and world is watching China with suspicion. Road ahead for China is very complicated and we may see China to get disintegrated in coming decades. China will fall flat on its own weight. I may sound to you more optimistic against China but there are facts which support disintegration. On the other hand, India should do it's home work properly rest thing will falls in place. First our government name China as aggressor in region and even touch it's weak points.

@@varundhand3784 Very correct Varun. China is likely to disintegrate, mote from internal pressures and contradictions abd at some point, thd Chinese people will revolt. I see the breakup to start with either Tibet or Xinjiang. India had already taken extraordinary steps, like banning Chinese apps, imposing of restrictions on Chinese capital, etc. Ig has so far stopped shy of naming China as aggressor. There are steps being taken to improve relationship with Taiwan and had an official greetings to Dalai Lama. 8 agree, we must do more.
