I think they are just trying to say that the deal to purchase base XYZ at $x on the 3rd of November, the year of our lord 2022 did not occur, so that statement several pages back about Chinese purchasing the only US base is indeed false cause certain specifics were not met.

It's better to just move on.

What intelligence do you think China was getting from Panama before that they can't now?

What intelligence do you think they'd get from a tiny port in Greenland? Greenland has less than 100 miles of paved roads and no railroads. Not exactly a recipe for a bustling shipping hub. Now maybe down the line if more commercially viable mineral deposits come around that could change somewhat.

In any case what are we even arguing about? I was simply refuting the claim that we needed a new deal because they wanted to sell our base to China, which was false.

I'm not really arguing.

Just pointing out those things...
