DONT FIGHT OTHER PEOPLE’S BATTLES, KALABA ADVISES HH on US and China Battle
….says swallow your pride and admit that your stance on Russia and China is wrong
Lusaka, Sunday, February 19, 2023 ( Smart Eagles)
Citizens First Leader Harry Kalaba has advised President Hakainde Hichilema against taking sides in the battle between China and USA.
Mr Kalaba said the UPND Government seems to have tilted towards the west and excluded the Eastern Corridor.
He said there is Nowhere in the world today that one can avoid China Economically and expect to make it.
He said what the UPND must know is that Zambia has enjoyed cordial relations with China and Russia who have even helped in constructing most of the buildings Zambia has.
“The Battle between China and America is theirs. China has been there for Zambia even when it was not necessary for them to help us. All they did when they won was to rush to the UN and took a Photo with Kamara Harris,” he said.
“What has that helped us in terms of bringing hammer Mills and maintaining Levy Mwanawasa Hospital. When you are a leader , understand the depths of your Problems and identify who can help you.”
And Mr Kalaba is saddened by the manner in which the Current Government has treated the Russians.
“Today, the government has given the western Countries to come in this country without a VISA and yet you have refused to do the same to Russia even when Russia proposed that they want Zambia and Russia to sign an agreement where Citizens from both countries can go to their respective countries without a VISA,” Mr Kalaba said.
