    Good policy for bad (or at least not principled) reasons. It’s for money. They consider Israel “high risk” because of the war. China doesn’t give a shit about human rights. They send their own Muslims to concentration camps.

      It’s also to say they have principles. It’s hard for the USA or Europe to criticize their human rights abuses while continuing to support Israel. It’s a way to highlight western hypocrisy while avoiding risk. Remember they still invest into other high risk countries. High risk can lead to high reward.
