Re: Kofi Annan on Iran
Only 29% of China's exports go to the US. Between 1995 and 2005, China's overall exports quadrupled. In 2007, the US imported $321 billion from China (versus $65 billion exports) and EU imported $182 billion from China (versus $91 billion exports). Japan is China's third largest trading partner.
Assuming that you have these figures from some reputable source!
$321 billion exports to USA may be a small change for you, but for the rest of the world it is a "HUGE" amount of money.
FYI $321 billion forms 50% of China's budget.
FYI $321 billions can carry 10 years of Pakistani expenses.
And you want to downplay that amount?
Fortunately for China, their policy makers do respect and follow USA.
Unfortunately for Pakistan, our policy makers follow leftist intellectuals like yourself.
