It seems that Vietnam has also been one of the biggest buyers of Israeli weapons for 4 years.
Not just that they literally were one of the biggest buyers for 7 years, stopped buying for 2 and just decided to lift trading restrictions at the height of a genocide
From 2015 to 2019, Vietnam was among the top three buyers of Israeli arms, accounting for 8.5 percent of total sales by Israel during that period, according to data from the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI).
Israel’s Haaretz newspaper reported in 2022 that, over the past decade, Vietnam purchased an estimated $1.5bn in defence equipment from Israeli, including ground-to-air missile systems, phone-hacking technology and drones.
In the past two years, however, there were no recorded arms deals between Vietnam and Israel, according to recent SIPRI data.
That they have no real standards, and will seek relations with anyone everywhere regardless of what is going on.
For the record, this type of fp isn’t unique to China (Russia pre-ukraine comes to mind.)
It never works in the end, you can’t work with everyone all the time.
I think China does a pretty decent job of this, but the leave a lot of room to be desired
