foreign policy is a weaker area, I would say. I think it's certainly based more on a long-term view of geopolitics, as best as I can tell the Party seems to be essentially thinking "The logic of Marxism is ironclad enough that we can be sure that even if we have to wait 70 years, development of these countries like that which we have been doing with the Belt and Road will result in a transition from capitalism to socialism; we need not rock the boat like the USSR did, we can simply wait, give some nudges, and everything will fall into place"
the unfortunate part of this obviously is that countries and socialist parties/movements that could really use a shitload of arms (that China could easily produce and supply with its massive industry) probably won't get them, or if they do then it'll be in relatively small quantities so as to not trigger suspicion.
their foreign policy is much better than America's obviously but they'd have to dig past the bedrock of hell itself to even approach that bar
also their massive amounts of coal plants. don't get me wrong, they're also the biggest renewable producer by far and there are legitimate reasons why they need a ton of power generation even if it's the shittiest form, I know the arguments, but it still fucking sucks that they're making as many as they are

Don’t look at the factions China supported during the Sino Soviet Split
People are speaking in the present tense, we're not defending Deng's foreign policy
Yes foreign policy is a very weak area
I found it really disappointing when they gave weapons to the Philippines government to use against the revolutionary army there.
