    how come the United States would happily try to assassinate someone like Castro 600+ times but not try even once with Xi? Is it because it’s too late to change China’s trajectory?

      1. They’re incompetent and they can’t get to him
      2. While they paint him as the devil the US economy depends on China. Imagine what would happen if any US assassination attempts on Xi were to reach media and China

      Cuba can’t retaliate the same way that China can.

      Simply put, China has a formidable navy, long-range airforce and most importantly, nukes. Cuba doesn’t.
