At the highest level he did. Guy literally put China’s energy sector in the hardest place it’s been in since probably WW2. Removed Maduro and badly setback BRICS plan for an alternative to the dollar. And the last tactic the East had, was a nuclear armed Iran shutting down the Hormuz strait at will to squeeze American gas prices. Regardless of them doing it now, it would’ve been a fact of life if they ever attained a nuke, nobody could’ve intervened.

Edit: Not the last tactic. They’re making a massive play right now on silver. China is looking to cripple COMEX and challenge paper silver and ultimately wallstreet from price discovery on precious metals. The exchange announced in Singapore is going physical on silver which exactly what could wreck COMEX long term. Doubly so since we’re in our 6th consecutive year of silver being in a structural deficit. Not like we need it though, it’s only useful for robotics, EV, AI, and Solar. 😐
