The problem is, who is going to protect these cities from US attack? Iraq? Hardly.

China & Iraq Begin Construction Of New City Near Baghdad

On Friday Iraq broke ground on 30,000 housing units near Baghdad, as part of a $2 billion project in partnership with Chinese firms to build five new cities across Iraq, Bloomberg has reported.

The government of Prime Minister Mohammad Shia al-Sudani is seeking to build 250,000 to 300,000 housing units for poor and middle-class families. The new city on the outskirts of Baghdad will include universities, commercial centers, schools and health centers and should be completed in four to five years.

Contracts to build the housing units were awarded to East China Engineering Science and Technology Co., Ltd. and China National Chemical Engineering Co., Ltd along with their Iraqi partner Shams al-Binaa.

Contracts to build four more cities are expected to be awarded soon and another 10 will be announced next year, including in Karbala, Anbar, Nineveh and Babel governorates.

Chinese firms have increased their presence in Iraq in recent years, in part due to a deal between Baghdad and Beijing.

In 2019, Iraq signed a 20-year contract, agreeing to supply Chinese firms with 100,000 barrels per day (bpd) of crude oil, with the revenue earmarked for funding various development projects in Iraq undertaken by Chinese firms.

Why China’s Belt and Road Initiative is Failing

China's Belt and Road Initiative was supposed to be the centrepiece of its foreign policy, but as many countries are failing to repay their loans, is it actually succeeding? So in this video, we take a look at the BRI and what Xi Jinping might do next.

China to 'welcome the Taliban back' in bid to extend Belt and Road into Afghanistan

China plans to link Afghanistan to the Belt and Road Initiative as the withdrawal of NATO forces from the country clears the way for Beijing’s return to one of the ancient Silk Road nations.

China is said to have a long term strategy but without friends it will fail. So far they've pissed off all their neighbors and many other countries around the globe. They've tipped their hand and exposed what their long term strategy is, and it isn't good for anyone. It's been amazing to see how stupidly they've used aggression against everyone, even Russia. This is not a winning strategy.

It shows a complete lack of understanding of how to use diplomacy to further their policies. In other words; they have no experience doing so. This applies to their military as well.

They have no experience waging a battle much less a war. And since each branch of their military must go through the central government to get instructions, they lack the capability of launching a multiprong attack that isn't planned out well in advance. In other words, successfully using a 3 dimensional approach to fighting.

I'm still waiting on a typhoon to wipe out their manufactured islands.

China's Nine-Dash Line in the South China Sea is absurd, except for China, which asserts that its sovereignty and rights in the South China Sea date back to “ancient times.” I'm pretty sure China knows its assertions are silly, but it pretends otherwise, getting incensed when its nonsense is pointed out.

Xi Jinping Makes Admission about China's Economic Struggles in New Year's Speech

Chinese President Xi Jinping, in his New Year's Eve speech, addressed the economic challenges currently facing China. This year's address marked a departure from his previous New Year messages since 2013, as it was the first time Xi openly discussed the nation's economic struggles.

China, the world's second-largest economy, is encountering significant hurdles, including a structural slowdown characterized by weak demand, rising unemployment, and declining business confidence.

What Happened: China’s National Bureau of Statistics released official private sector activity readings for December on Sunday, revealing a worse-than-expected contraction in the manufacturing sector. The non-manufacturing sector barely expanded, with the corresponding purchasing managers’ index at 50.4, up from 50.2 in November.

How is that wrong? China's Belt and Road - essentially a foreign infrastructure project- is supposed to take the place of western markets, internal infrastructure, housing speculative boom (ghost cities). A lot of people left their small rural farms and moved to the cities, and China is desperate to find jobs for everyone bc, unlike most western nations, China doesn't have a "safety net". Joblessness leads to restlessness and disruption.

I think China's leadership is stupid. Not for their ultimate goals ... a productive society and increased standard of living for everyone ... but for the way they go about it. They jump into Big Projects... the Three Gorges Dam, instant industrialization, BRI, dislocating people from their small farms to raise the standard of living, housing projects, etc. without seeing if it will work first, or having a fallback plan in case it doesn't.

China has made a lot of progress but they've made a lot of mistakes. They take unnecessary risks with things that are entirely under their control, but wimp out when it comes to foreign relations.

What you wrote implies a falsehood.
China has no excess of manufacturing to worry about.
What I posted came directly from
China’s National Bureau of Statistics.
And it states very clearly, China is suffering
a worse-than-expected contraction in the
manufacturing sector.

And there belt and road initiative
is failing miserably. The Chinese economy
is stating to free fall towards a total collapse.
Just like Russian comrade.
