China might seize land from the tiny country of Montenegro to repay a billion-dollar debt for a highway built to nowhere.
It was supposed to go for 270 miles but only went 100.
China Road and Bridge Corporation, the state-owned company which is building the bridge with imported Chinese workers, has not yet finished constructing the first section of the 270-mile highway to the Serbian capital, Belgrade.
The first installment on a $1 billion loan from China’s state bank is due this month, but it’s unclear whether Montenegro, whose debt has soared to more than double its GDP because of the project, will be able to pay it back.
A copy of the loan contract reviewed by NPR shows that if Montenegro misses the deadline, Beijing has the right to seize land inside the country – as long as it doesn’t belong to the military or is used for diplomatic purposes.
It sounds like Calfornia’s train to nowhere project. We have billions of dollars worth more of those projects planned.

DJT has declared the USA and all other nations injured by the CCP Virus,and I’m sure that includes little Montenegro, are owed reparations and can start collecting by cancelling all debt to the ChiComs. Perhaps, Montenegro should adopt Trumps suggestion? It would set a good precedent and other nations would follow.
Joe wants happytalk only because he knows America won’t exist this time next year.
Now that the NWO (CCP) is complete, America will be tossed aside.
They know that the bitter clingers, deplorables, smelly CCP-Mart people will put up a fight which is why they are targeted as terrorists.
Enjoy this one and never forget WAR is the answer.
WWII is already on, humanity vs. governments.
The CCP knows Traitor Joe is a Puppet and Heels Up Harris is totally incompetent. If the CCP pushes hard enough they know they can create a Constitutional Crisis that will force the US to have a string of Accidents involving the the line of succession to the President because there is no one in the line of succession able, or qualified to run the Country. Just look up the list. I suspect this was by design! The number one question today is who is really running the US Government. It clearly isn’t Traitor Joe. Number two is who really stole the 2020 election, the Democrats, the CCP, or Both?
The biggest question for America today is, “Does Putin see China or America as Russia’s biggest threat?” We can’t fight a war against both and win with Democrats in charge! Not since 1812 has America faced an adversary as powerful as China has become, and today we have a totally incompetent Government. The crazy part is we created the monster in earnest starting about 25 years ago.
China is potentially expanding its missile silos following satellite image analysis – indicating the country is also seeking to increase its nuclear weapon stockpile. At least 119 potential silos were identified in the desert in Gansu Province spread over 700-square-miles to increase their nuclear arsenal which is estimated to be made up of between 250 to 315 nuclear weapons. It comes as President Xi Jinping issued a warning to ‘bullying’ foreign nations telling them to stay out of China’s business during a speech earlier this week.
“If the silos under construction at other sites across China are added to the count, the total comes to about 145 silos under construction,” Jeffrey Lewis, director of the East Asia Nonproliferation Program at the Center for Nonproliferation Studies, part of the Middlebury Institute of International Studies, said in a summary of his findings provided to The Washington Post. “We believe China is expanding its nuclear forces in part to maintain a deterrent that can survive a U.S. first strike in sufficient numbers to defeat U.S. missile defenses.”
The discovery follows recent warnings by Pentagon officials about rapid advances in China’s nuclear capability. Adm. Charles Richard, who commands U.S. nuclear forces, said at a congressional hearing in April that a “breathtaking expansion” was underway in China, including an expanding arsenal of ICBMs and new mobile missile launchers that can be easily hidden from satellites. In addition, the Chinese navy has introduced new nuclear-weapons-capable submarines to its growing fleet.
Russia’s defense ministry has announced it sunk an aircraft carrier just 35 miles off the coast of Hawaii in a huge war games exercise that has alarmed the US.
At least 20 Russian warships, submarines, and support vessels, flanked by 20 fighter jets, are taking part in the exercises – the biggest since the Cold War.
China then owns the USA
