I mean feel free to back any of that up but it really just seems like bong rip paranoia that flies in the face of how these cooperation agreements work and the competition and diplomatic pressure France is facing
Capital outflows from imperialist countries have not created rail development abroad beyond what was needed to extract resources for a century in many places so imperialists paying for infrastructure is symbolically a reversal, it’s bringing them to heel

That’s my point, the French wouldn’t pay for infrastructure unless they thought they were getting something out of it, if there’s a clear reversal (symbolic or otherwise) the French wouldn’t so much as return Hanoi’s calls
Obviously the French see a door that is open or appears to be open, a door that most likely has nothing to do with rail (considering the comically low amount they’re investing) and shouldn’t be open to begin with
Whether that “door” is actually open and the Vietnamese aren’t just playing 4d chess on Paris is up for debate, I hope they are
Every time I look at the map of chemical scars it makes me get really itchy and I want to cry but I don’t because I need people to take me seriously ☝️🤠

Yeah I get it doing Dengism is bad because the French are evil
You put my point on the rack and stretched that mf lmao
The French are evil tho
The Americans are worse and Vietnam worked with them pretty much immediately after they got done poisoning their entire populace
