The USA gives US$110m in financial aid annually to the Federated States of Micronesia. To put into context their GDP is US$400m and 2021 Government budget was $64m

Our voices is louder than a thousand army.. Thank you President Panuelo for being a louder voice for FSM

Im Micronesian & i love tawan!!!

We in Samoa also look at Chinese generosity with suspicion.The problem is we have been ignored by the west until China started funding projects.

The first public inkling that something wasn’t right was last year, when his office openly mentioned “Taiwan”. That incident broke the One-China policy and most likely led to some diplomatic backlash from the PRC Embassy at the FSM’s capital.

Finally I "re-" my favorite all time newscaster-Ms Palki Sharma. I-and many many others have really missed her wit-sarcastic without being "too" unpleasant Unfortunately what she and the Micronesian Leader said is true. China has become a Bully- A worse bully than us-USA. I don't think we are"currently" claiming to own any entire "sea" and all the Islands in it I wish China would not emulate USA's worst behavior. We-USA GB RUSSIA FRANCE all OWE china and Chinese citizens(both "countries" a HUGE debt. They fought Japan the entire war-WW2 despite HORRENDOUS-20 MILLION DEATHS-yes 20,000,000 deaths.If they had surrendered Japan would have had a much easier time holding USA off in our Island Hopping-and Russia would have been attacked -by Japan-from the east. Russia gives NO ONE else any WW2 credit-not even their FRIEND FOR LIFE(who they stole Vlad-a-vos-tok from-and other territory) In any case Ms Sharma is the most "watch-worthy" news caster-and is the only reason I know anything about why India has such HARD FEELINGS for USA(but India still mis-represents the 1965 Famine relief-one of the few times we-USA- were strictly on the side of the angels-and Indira Gandhi also was strictly on side of the angels-shame about her-but we-USA-also kill our democratically elected leaders- Good for Micronesia-sure hope we-USA play fair with them

Taiwan should seek a peaceful resolution to this one giant shit-storm that is about to come. Do whatever it takes to win their freedom. They have the financial means to do so. This is a very unpopular opinion. I don't want to fight or die for Taiwan. I will do it for my country but not for Taiwan. It will be Ukraine 2.0 but this time it will be deadlier. My country is allied with the U.S. I guess, i don't have a choice. Goodluck to all of us. See you out there.

There is a difference. What little aid we have received from the west requires strict reporting requirements. The Chinese are not as strict, but don't use local contractors so that very little is added to the economy other than massive debt. In addition, the projects often are of substandard quality and are starting to fall apart, like our main hospital.

You are such a propagandist. This ALL would not be necessary if the US was not starting the aggression using Taiwan. China had NO intention of invading Taiwan and was patiently waiting for its return to the mainland. The US needs war to maintain its economy and be dominant in the world. For China to get its NEIGHBOURS to ally with them is perfectly logical. You mean to say the US does not use threats and bribery and say 'sanctions' to coerce governments?

We're true, wouldn't matter because all know Chinese bribe extensively, it is what they do internally, see all graft cases since Xi. Of course if rampant within, practiced in external relations. This surprises none, except for a leader of a small nation to state it openly in the news. Also, he opened story within his nation to keep his people on guard for future movements in their democracy.
