The plan was quite simple - tea. Britain wanted tea, but self sufficient China wanted nothing but silver coins for it. So the trade in was silver for opium from colonial India. Than silver was used to buy tea. There is a great book For all the tea of China based a diary of a British botanist who was commissioned by the Crown to smuggle tea plants out of China to develop cultivation and tea production in India.

Ffs, read Kash Patel list for the names, some are very familiar. Where do you think epstein got his victims from the beginning. Eastern Europe was in a turmoil then. The pressure is obviously applied in these areas, as declas is slowly moving along the peace negotiations
