- U.S. diplomats have been working to counter China’s influence in ports that increase its economic power. Chinese firms have spent billions of dollars to operate and develop ports in areas across the world from North America to Africa. Can the U.S. continue to convince countries that security concerns outweigh the benefits of Chinese state investments?
WSJ looks at Beijing’s global network of ports and how the U.S. has worked to stop its expansion in key areas around the world.

China is building commercial ports and the United States is building military bases.

This reporting sounds like America owns the world and is entitled to it.
Looks like it's China who is trying to own the world. Is that what we want?
They do this alot .
China is an adversarial country to all Democracies under Xi’s territorial expansionism. The US is just taking Xi’s threat most seriously and moving strategically now to contain a Chinese imperialist ambition.
At least, that’s the way I understand it.
china should own the world?
@@AL-lh2ht China bought different properties using US dollars.
Only USA can build military bases everywhere while no other countries are allowed to own stakes of commercial ports. It’s the best US exceptionalism.
Absolutely rights
US dictatorship. The real dictator and terrorist
they're insecure, because they have to increase the ceiling every 24 months while china have hundred billion dollars trade surplus
other countries are fine to own commercial ports outside their borders, but China is an enemy.
Which would you prefer: The U.S. ruling the world? Or the country where they're conducting a state-led genocide, welded people into their homes over covid, and prop up North Korea?
Can you imagine China, or any other nation, publicly talking about slowing down the growth of the USA? The shamelessness of United States as a country is jaw dropping. United States one day will learn the hard way that they don't own the world, whether it's China or another nation which will give them that lesson, we will see.
Uhh China and Russia are non democratic nations of course we must do everything we can to reduce their influence around the world!
They've literally openly spoken about destroying the United States on their state media channels. You should really look at some of their wolf warrior takes.
The problem that we have with China is that its a neo-fascist dictatorship. The UK willingly allowed the US to become the global hegemon after WW2 because we were democratic and capitalistic. You act like the US has bad diplomacy while every country that surrounds China minus Russia hates their guts.

Well once the CCP starts bullying these smaller countries or these ports then they wanna call the United States for help

I have a serious question. Which would you rather have in your country? Permanent military bases or permanent trade ports?
Depends if it’s meant for trade only.
The Chinese government runs “police” operations in foreign countries to intimidate opposition figures, while posing as an immigrant assistance organization.
But I’d be fine with a permanent military base near my country, since it’s my country’s military base.

But lemme ask you a question.
Would you be fine with a foreign power ownership over your nations trade ports, with the ability to use it against you if needed?

USA is a bit jealous of China helping other countries.
Helping? You mean give billions and billions for infrastructure project by using its own workforce while refusing to not any hiring locals and using cheap materials for these project. Later the nation who got its billions of loan from cannot pay its debt so China decides to take that project, port, or portion of land for 99 years for chinese interest? You call that helping? No wonder you chinese suck.
China operates civilian commercial ports abroad, the US operates military bases abroad. This sets the tone of each country's character.
The U.S. has about 750 overseas military bases in more than 80 countries.
And why is that? Do you know anything about history?
I think they should add some or many more..
This video highlights the two vastly different philosophies to nation building. The US builds military bases, 760 of them, and more on the way, while China builds ports to move goods around the world.
The US's priority is to dominate the world via military presence, while China attempts to dominate the world's commerce. The choice is stark. For the west, they have chosen the US for the fear of an Asian country dominating them. Mind you, they were once dominating Asia, and they were rather comfortable with that.
For "the rest" of the world, ie. the developing and non western allied world, they chose China, because their national interests don't collide with China's. They wanted goods to be traded between themselves and the rest of the world, and sea transportation is much preferable because it is cheaper. So Chinese's ambition doesn't impinge those non-western nations' interest, but rather enhancing it.
That of course won't be agreeable with the US because those "the rest" of the world are voting with their feet, and picked China instead of the US. So what can the US do? Well, there are many if past records are anything to go by.
(1). Sanctions
(2). Talk up the Chinese threats
(3). Block and threaten any country which dare to disobey America's directives.
(4). Build more military bases.
But money doesn't grow on trees. For the US, money does grow out of printers, and of course selling more bonds, meaning borrowing. Ironically, China is one of the US's major creditors. So China lends money to the US to build more military bases to encircle itself. It makes zero sense. Meanwhile, US politicians are arguing if they should borrow even more in order to pay the interest and to pay for the military which boost the US's mojo.
Great comment. I believe China continues to loan money because they know the US is getting close to a hyper inflationary collapse. Rendering all those military bases useless. Idk.
Well said
If it came to war, the US just wouldn’t pay them back, and if anything Japan and our own social security are our biggest creditors.
Not exactly, you should do some research on who or which county has been protecting the WORLD sea trade lanes for decades allowing for unhindered trade or globalization. Who invited the CCP into the WTO literally championing them as a world manufacturer? That is a very naive or better yet simple way of looking at it. You seem to being missing the some points, China is literally benefitting from all "bad" bases the US has built for a reason and have been for decades. This is the world we live in, people watch CZcams, soak up the propaganda they like and comment away without thought or understanding.
Finally a smart one that knows what these Americans are up to.
Instead of “counter”, why not “corporate” to make the world a better & friendlier place?
this is the US mentality, which is sick
Instead of democracy losing why not bomb the countries. 25% of all countries bomb by USA, 75% of the world rebuild by china.
There is no such thing with the US government.
Their thirst for bloods are too strong.
Afterall, it's a country built on the skeleton of 20 million indigenous people that the US army massacred and stole their land.
here is a solution, instead of trying to destroy what others have built try becoming more industrious your self and built foreign ports.
the best revenge is to improve your self.
True but wisdom can't be taught to savage war mongers. They must experience their decline first hand to learn.
These ports could already be in "friendly hands" If the US was more friendly with China. Maybe work on that?
😂
US Military have 800 military bases in more than 70 countries and we still afraid of these China ports? 😂
Just convert their naval base to port
National Security! 😂
The US is interested in weakening other countries and gaining access to resources while creating poverty. China is coming to invest and has uplifted millions of Africans from poverty....Thanks to China my country Kenya now has paved roads everywhere in the country and a high speed Rail line.,,China is also building a brand new port in Kenya called Port of Lamu which is almost complete.
it's called strategic thinking. Foreseeing potential threats building up.
@@joemosely9383its fine but stop double standard first
Chinese operated ports are among the most efficient in the world, whereas US ports are among the least efficient
who needs port when you can just bomb and steal?
efficient because there are not labor laws.
Why cannot be both? Countries should run their assets with efficiency
Jealousy leads to war
Frankly, I trust China more than the US when it comes to building ports around the world, regardless if it's military or commercial. China doesn't go to war all around the globe, the US does.
China's massively ramping up their military spending, so looks like they want to change that.
4:10 If it creates more jobs and improves the output of those countries......then it's good. the US shouldn't force its allies to do something that they don't want or it will ruin the alliance and the friendship
If Us is willing to go back to make shoes and socks they will soon control many ports. If not then let the real trader and manufacturers to take care of the logistics.
Can somebody explain how Chinese companies owning a port in the EU or US could possibly be a threat or the host country not take over their operation and nationalise the ports in case of emergency? If they want to own a port fine, but they can't shut it down or make us refuel their military ships. This seems overly dramatic.
When American politicians are not able to manage their country well they will start to look for scapegoats and unfortunately it’s China’s turn.
It is just ridiculous.. How can this be a thing of pride?
you're overly naive
Compared to 800 US official military bases around the world, China's response (those ports) is highly insignificant.
As a Myanmar we welcome Chinese ports since US or EU isn't investing in our country. If China wants warships dock there, we fine with that too since US won't invest
America’s constant fear and threat of what other countries “could or might do” is nauseating.

It's weird that US capital has so little interest in manufacturing and infrastructure but are willing to throw copious amounts of cash in venture capital investments that haven't had a profitable year on their books.

If those Chinese can handle and manage the port well, i dont see any problem as long as it follows local law and can bring in trade.

@@entertainmentjoke2871 I think you misread my intention. Nothing wrong for China to turn some of their commercial ports to naval bases if need be and the host countries are agreeable. After all, the US has 800 of them.
Alternate title: What should the USA do to protect its hegemony.
I see the point with the US trying to influence port investments. However, if China tried to do the same there would be uproar.
I respect the US, but feel they do not see how it’s foreign policy can provoke other countries and drive them to partner against the west.
Ex. Russia and China
West Companies are colonial tool to enrich themselves not undeveloped large or warm country.
I hate them, invent patent, trade secret for always and always having edge on technologies.
Us politicians are so afraid of China's economic development that everything is tied to US national security and military.
Solar panel costs are low because of China not USA. CATL worlds largest battery manufacturer. From EV batteries to Grid storage batteries. China sees the future more than the USA.
Paranoia over fair competition. The US's militarization would consider toilet paper as a 'National Security' issue since it's used by them and shortages would impede their defence.
China largest importer especially South America and Africa. Building ports and supplying infrastructure help. China very proactive vs reactive with lithium, rare earth metals, nickel, copper, etc. most worlds refining of raw metals completed in China. Amazing from rice paddies to superpower in only 60 years. A force to be reckoned with.
May I know why that is a concern? Building and operating seems not the same as owning the port? Can they allow military activities without approval, no?
seems everything is a "threat" these days
Soon they will put Panda on the list too. 😅
Daily propaganda video from the WSJ.
It seems that the message is: for the US politicians to feel safe several neighbours, that are as distant as in Africa, are not allowed to have proper infrastructure vital for their development. If we generalize this idea and allow all countries to be equally entitled to feel safe, then we would go back to become hunters and gatherers.
But even then, there would be an American hunter hiding behind trees, shooting arrows at you.
Wall street journal is very much biased
Americans are worried about a Chinese military base in Africa while the Americans have 200+ military bases surrounding China! 🤣

They're gonna counter China with gender studies and CRT. Haha
Yeah, China is "winning" by blocking feminism. Way to be on the wrong side of history LOL. Caveman society
I think United States could have easily been the leader in commerce and exert real influence through trade instead of spreading military bases that have little real world value and influence on people’s lives
Arrogance, hubris,war mongering, entitlement etc , I have no sympathy to whatever happens to the US
Knowing history, they would feel more comfortable imposing their will on weak countries, rather than doing that.
China doesn’t have weapon billionaires. It doesn’t engage in businesses of coups, colour revolutions, interventions, or wars. It doesn’t need military bases to do business. Recently China earned status of the happiest country, 91% feeling satisfied and happy, 94% public approval for the government, i.e, very successful democracy. China has built the world’s largest public education, healthcare and social security. It has built new infrastructures, transportation, social and cultural facilities all over with conveniences of digital technologies, i.e high level of human rights. It doesn’t have freedom of shootings, opioids, ganglands, homeless, hunger, lie or being lied upon.
So the US has 700 bases around the world and China 1 and this one should worried us all. Tragic.
China is involved in 95 ports worldwide for trade. The U.S. operates 800 plus military bases worldwide producing noting but a big eater of the U.S. tax revenue.
Why don't the AWSJ make a video and tell us how many military ports the US has around the world. And the numbers of military airports too.
Its nice to see a country showing its true colors. Keep it up keep it spiteful.

Dual use as military still requires consent from the host nation.
German government let COSCO Shipping buy the 24.9% stake in Hamburg Tollerort container terminal.

This is such nonsense! As usual, to understand U.S. posturing, simply "Follow the Money."
The US military is not only large enough to eviscerate China's, it is large enough to take on and defeat the remaining global military balance were they all to unite against the US. As more and more countries catch on to the US MIC's profit-driven intentions (Military-Industrial Complex), the plausibility of a global conflict becomes ever more likely.

Yes, but a concern is that MCI munitions production stock is low due to the Ukraine, so if a 2nd or 3rd front emerges there may be serious initial problems.

Instead of convincing other countries we can leverage our debt free economic aid packages to help other countries build their ports and place them under their independent management. That way all parties are happy. China has a history of using private companies as state assets which should ring alarm bells in any country that wishes to be sovereign. And if Sri Lanka is any example to go buy Chinese investments have not always proven to be reliable and can often be debt traps.
The US focuses on military, China focuses on development. I would tell the US to step aside.
That's what it happens when china focus on economy and help 3rd world country and the us only focus on lgbtq stuff
Oh please. Go be a boomer outside of CZcams. This is what happens when the US doesn’t care about the future
focus on the economy? for 3 years during covid? really? LOL your whackjob leader simply focused on CONTROL per the usual
Why is the flag of Denmark over Croatia ?
This is a deeply embarrassing blunder. C'mon WSJ, you can do better.
0:09 meanwhile, the United States owns 700 military bases all over the world, including in poor countries where their presence has significantly reduced the long-term political security of the entire region (especially in Africa). So many countries are vulnerable to the US
Why there aren't interviews to the Chinese officials? Maybe they have something important to say or add to the topic?
Can US do something for a better world rather than military .. Rest of the countries aware the geopolitics and US intention . China is not interested in military bases but trade cooperation... Is time we need world cooperation to fight climate change before it becomes irreversible
You are literally using U.S. technology by even using CZcams. And the devices you use, food you consume, most of the innovations in your life - cars, electricity, etc ... all due to the U.S. What has China offered the world? Cheap takeout and kung fu that's about it.
China: 95 commercial ports.
US: 750 military bases.
Mao build 3 highways from Beijing to Tibet with the permission from Dallai lama for better connectivity in 1950. That was fatal mistake and lesson for all nations joining belt and road. Mao used same highways to invade Tibet in 1959. Dallai lama fled to India. Mao attacked India in 1962. Tibet is landlocked used to use Kolkata India port so China hatched BRI plan. This is the beginning of BRI and Chinese ambition.
I don't know if I buy the notion that China is exerting this much global influence out of "defense". I think the Chinese government has grand ambitions.
