Not as much as the IMF yet. Difference is in the strings attached (or lack thereof, in Russia and China’s cases). Strangest thing, is those two entities get accused of debt trapping all the time, but I’ve never once heard of Russia or China actually leveraging the traps the crackers INSIST are being planted and engaged. Meanwhile, I hear about Amerikan pressure all the goddamn time.
It’s almost like they see what’s happening to their neighbors, see what’s happening across the water, and decide “well we can’t trust them old crackers in the West.”
