I don't think it needs to when they can buy influence with cheap loans from their development bank for the Belt and Road Initiative, especially when they keep forgiving loans that can't be paid back instead of forcing austerity down countries' throats like the World Bank and IMF.
Countries that are pro-China just have a material interest in their relationship with China. Why bother with an influence campaign?
You seriously think the country that has its own citizens spy on each other for social points doesn't spy on and try to influence other countries? Lol Come on.
Why would it? China wants to rule China, not the world (unlike the US lol)
You guys are a special kind of naive here
There's no socal credit in China?
What's this? https://credit.gz.gov.cn/
(Hint: it's the Chinese social credit system)
I'm curious, what country do you live in?
I’m curious, why are you such a pain in the mods’ asses? https://lemm.ee/modlog?&userId=629632
