Pretty safe to assume that China will try to fill the vacuum left behind by our decision to hide, insult, intimidate and go fully transactional. They know that positive, symbiotic, ongoing relationships are absolutely critical in foreign affairs.

They're also talking with Brazil, Japan, the EU and Australia.

President Trump said on Friday that “a lot of people are starving” in the Gaza Strip under an Israeli blockade preventing aid deliveries, adding that the U.S. wanted to help alleviate the suffering.

“We’re going to handle a couple of situations that you have here,” Mr. Trump said, speaking in the United Arab Emirates on the last leg of his visit to three Persian Gulf nations this week. “We’re looking at Gaza, and we got to get that taken care of. A lot of people are starving. A lot of people. There’s a lot of bad things going on.”

This is a tacit admission of the US's complicity in allowing Israel to intentionally starve the people in Gaza. Done, it would appear, to appease his new found friends in the ME when it should have been done months ago.
