A case then can be made and should be factored into U.S./WEAST corporations considering “going into” China, as the Russians and others have learned already, that they need be fully aware that when they are no longer needed by the Chinese government, i.e. been picked clean for their strategic expertise value, these “partnerships” likely won’t last long. That is, as whoever the respective Chinese government entity involved in a specific “partnership”, abruptly transforms from novice, polite partner to bold, expert competitor, and begins the strangulation process to eventual cut-off of that particular market access, which that outside entity thought they had firmly secured and would enjoy for a long time to come. In a sense, not unlike an oil nation which nationalizes its oil industry once that infrastructure is fully put in place by third party oil companies and now those third parties are no longer deemed necessary, e.g. Libya’s nationalization of oil assets following the 1969 Gaddafi coup.
In the case of China, the threat is not nationalizing oil but rather “financial expertise nationalization”. Perhaps even more appropriately characterized as “financial expertise expropriation”, since there really will be no comparable compensation in return. Rather, just huge long term cost to the collective U.S. and WEAST economy.
