Beijing builds walls and erects barbed wire along the Sino-Vietnamese and Sino-Myanmar borders to prevent people from entering and leaving

The U.S.-Mexico border fence stopped being built at the end of Trump‘s term, but new fences are being built along the China-Vietnam and China-Myanmar borders at the same Time.

The Australian Broadcasting Corporation reported earlier that Beijing has erected a 12-kilometer-long fence along the Beilun River with barbed wire at a height of 4.5 meters along the China-Vietnam border.

Beijing has also erected a 659-kilometer-long fence along the China-Myanmar border.

The Sino-Vietnamese border is 1,281 kilometers long, and the Sino-Myanmar border is 2,000 kilometers long. The Chinese side will continue to build the fence next.

While the function of the fence is to block the movement of people during the spread of the Epidemic, the Chinese side has been building walls along the Sino-Vietnamese border as far back as 2012-2017, with the apparent aim of curbing the exodus of Chinese people from other countries, the inflow of people from other countries into China, and the smuggling of goods and drugs.

Private trade between China and the people of the border countries flourishes, pictured here is the border trade between China and Nepal.
