Below is an article from a Nepal mainstream newspaper about the current Chinese revisionists arming the Nepal monarchy against the Nepali Maoists...how much more obvious could it be that China has been on the capitalist road since 1976?
China arms RNA
KOL Report
KATHMANDU, Nov 25 - China has delivered the first lot of military hardware to the Royal Nepalese Army (RNA), the Kantipur daily reported on Friday.
The arms and weapons were brought into Nepal in 18 trucks - 12 on Tuesday and six on Wednesday - via the Kodari Highway, the daily said quoting sources.
RNA officials are yet to confirm the consignment.
"I don't have any information about the arms delivery," RNA spokesman Deepak Gurung said.
The trucks were escorted by the Chinese People's Army up to the Nepal-Tibet border while plainclothes RNA security personnel escorted them inside Nepali territory.
China pledged to provide Rs.72 million military aid to the RNA during Chief of Army Staff General Pyar Jung Thapa's visit in October.
"The aid will be used to strengthen the RNA," Thapa told journalists after returning from his weeklong visit to China.
In June, China had delivered military equipments that include five Armoured Personnel Carriers to the RNA.
China's aid comes at time when India, the United States and the United Kingdom have suspended the supply of lethal military arms to Nepal following the king's February 1 move.
