The question is not whether Puerto Rico or any other U.S. colony desires sovereignty - the question is, if they did would you accept China's interference in the matter?

Imagine Puerto Rico wanted a more socialized government, independent of U.S. control. Based on the Latin American policies of the U.S., Puerto Rico would find significant resistance to any desire for sovereignty. If China started putting subs in the Caribbean to protect Puerto Rico from U.S. military action, you'd all be fine with that, right?
