Following up on his threats to India over the Russo-Ukraine war, Biden will threaten everybody else in the ASEAN alliance.
The ASEAN (Association of Southeast Asian Nations) region including India, comprises a combined population of 1.85 billion people, one-fourth of the global population. Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, Singapore, Philippines, Brunei, Vietnam, Cambodia, Myanmar (Burma), and Laos are included.
As Biden doubles down on a proxy war against Russia in Europe, and given the financial stakes within the western economic sanctions, the global trade cleaving could leave the countries around India with a decision on which financial trade mechanisms they will support.
This is the background for Joe Biden to organize a special summit of ASEAN leaders in Washington, DC, May 12th and 13th...
It will be the usual Globaloney/Hegemony/New World Order/"Rules-Based" stuff.
Question is: will ASEAN nations accept it?
