    I can’t read that as it’s paywalled. Anyway here’s a lot of links about this topic, several from African leaders and diplomats on the difference between Chinese trade and development in Africa and actual imperialism as practiced by western countries:

    • Debunking the claim that “China is Imperialist”
    • The demeanor of Chinese leaders (Xi Jinping) vs Western leaders (Nancy Pelosi) towards African nations. One of the reasons why African nations favor China instead of the West. Full video here

    • China africa panel: if you want actual infrastructure, you go to China, not the west.
    • Is China really imperialist? What’s the difference between what Europe did to Africa, and what China is doing?

    • US air force veteran Bill Brown breaks down the history of anti-chinese propaganda, and why China is not colonialist like the west.
    • Yanis Varoufakis on China’s foreign policy dealings with Greece and Africa.
    • Vijay Prashad and Qiao Collective - Is China imperializing Africa?

    • The western media’s China hysteria.

      It’s not paywalled. I think you didn’t even bother to click “read full article” or whatever the button name is. They might ask you to register witb a free account.

      If you want to use other people opinions as an argument, I’m going to ask you for what you asked for - studies. Preferably published in journals, not essays by socials celebrities like Caitlin Johnstone, nor articles in Chinese newspapers, nor Reddit. And that’s because a deluge of weak sources is worthless - that’s how US propaganda works and enforces itself.

      Extra points if the studies are not from China or it’s close Allies, just so that you have exactly the same requirements as the ones you asked for.

      Can be paywalled.

      Edit: I highly recommend you read https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gish_gallop
