China's military parade invited heads of government and high-ranking government officials from many countries around the world. The presence of Russian President Vladimir Putin and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un was a much more notable in event. But another important point is that no American government official or head of government was invited.

Here, China is sending a strong message against America by excluding two superpowers, Russia and North Korea, as the first row guests.

China and the US have been rivals for a long time, and have had various diplomatic relations deteriorate in the past. As part of their global rivalry, China is trying to form an alliance in Asia. I think that China is trying to form an anti-American unity with various countries in Central Asia, including Russia, North Korea, Iran, Pakistan, etc.

China's military parade featured a variety of modern weapons and equipment, all of which were developed using its own technology. As a result, China wanted to show the world its capabilities, strength, intelligence, and knowledge, and especially its ability to fight against America as a message.

Note that it has to do with the greed of the Western bankers. Many countries are trying to get out from under the Western banking system. BRICS is what that is all about.

Western banking has to do with 'paper'... contracts and agreements, that the Western banks convert into new money. That's really where inflation comes from. Once the BRICS nations realized this, their personal greed, and their wish for freedom from Western banks, caused them to get together under BRICS.

Will it work? Will they be able to throw off Western banking? The West has a more-than-100-year head start.

That's what this is all about.

They were people heavily speculating that BRICS was going to issue and circulate their new currency last year, and guess what? It never happened, because China wants to continue to have full control of it's economy without giving up their centralized system, they like to have control over their Yuan, do the Communist party can devaluate the value of their currency to fit global markets and keep competitivy high in China. If China was completely up for the creation of an international coin, then they would start to lose power on that competitivy and the value of the coin.
The US dollar will continue to be unchallenged by China, because their economy relies on American companies taking advantage on the Yuan weakness against the American dollar.

Not only that US was not invited, but they think that China, Russia and other invited countries are planning against them, also that China is trying to intimidate them of what they've got in military weapons and deliberately displays all they've got to the world to know and see, US never expected that China could have gone this far with their intimidation in what they have developed and displayed during this occasion, it indeed spark lots of reactions.

Even if Trump says that he's a friend of Xi and with China, I don't think that the West and East will be in one thought of moving forward with both superpowers developing other countries. We have now understood the formula of what these countries does when their economies are down, and that's to sell arms. It will not happen to see Xi, Trump, Putin, Kim in one frame in any of these world economic meetings or a simple celebration like what China did.

This is a power play by China. I think this alliance is because of the tight policies of Donald Trump.

The moment China got nukes it had military parity with the USA. If the nukes were to actually be used it would be more about who wants to win more, the psychological strength of the population. All they have to do is show a single functional ICBM nuke... that could be their whole military parade.

China does not have more military power than any other nuclear armed country, nor does the USA.

If you are a nuclear armed country, no mentally sound person would suggest a military attack against it for any reason, possibly even if you are nuked by them because then you're leverage is gone, and they send in the clean-up crew to kill the survivors. However many nukes they send, game theory would certainly suggest to send less as a response, at least initially, if not at all times.

China invited its allies, and the US is not one of them. Two European leaders attended who are the Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico and Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic. I guess other weapons were not displayed for security reasons. China has shown that it cannot be bullied by any country.

To be more precise, China only invited its close allies, Russia and North Korea being its two closest military allies.

It was a military parade, not a military review, and as far as I know, parades are used to show military might and send political messages. So they will show off everything they have, especially their strongest weapon to send the strongest message. If you have seen China's military parade, you will see how magnificent it is. There will be weapons that the United States does not even possess.

Through the parade, China not only wants to demonstrate that it is not easily bullied, but also wants to make its intentions public to the US and NATO.

No one mentions that this was not only a military parade to show off China's military power, but also a celebration of the 80th anniversary of the victory over Japan in World War II. For those who don't know, part of China was occupied by Japan, and China's biggest ally at that time was not Russia or North Korea, but the US, which played a key role in the defeat of Japan.

Under normal circumstances, you invite someone who was your ally in the war against the occupiers, not some insignificant figures from countries thousands of kilometers away from China who had no influence on the outcome of the end of World War II.

Chinese weapons are now much more advanced and as good as Western weapons. In May this year, we saw Pakistan Air force shooting down Indian Air force Rafale's through J-10C Aircrafts that uses PL-15 missiles (both are Chinese products). That's first time we have seen Chinese military weapon beating western technology. Now many countries including Iran are taking interest in buying J-10C because of it's straight of the art capabilities.

China has close ties with Russia and North Korea. While all of them have not good ties with US, so it's not a surprising thing that USA was not invited in military parade.
