    My Take | How Beijing is neutralising Washington’s sanctions machine (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    As alternative networks like China’s CIPS gain traction, the multilateral pushback is steadily eroding US financial dominance Last week, the president of the United States stood at the podium of the United Nations General Assembly and asked aloud whether he should “annihilate the Islamic Republic and do it quickly”. Donald Trump then turned to Venezuela’s oil and declared: “To the victor belong the spoils, you’ve all heard that …”

    As I see it | China and the US can make nice, if not peace (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Outright enmity is too costly for both superpowers. Even without trust, shared interests leave room for pragmatic cooperation Washington and Beijing have spent nearly a decade trading tariffs, export controls and blacklists, with each round threatening rupture. Yet they keep recovering from the brink. As the two presidents met at the White House this week, that pattern was repeating.

The first and easiest answer is, of course, Western freedom and democracy as allegedly practised – or at least taught – in colonial Hong Kong, as opposed to Chinese communist propaganda on the mainland.

    Opinion | The world is not so much embracing China as recoiling from Trump’s US (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    The US is haemorrhaging goodwill around the world, but China will have to build up its own trustworthiness and credibility to win hearts and minds Global surveys show China is now more popular than the United States in most countries. The reality is China hasn’t become more popular, only that Uncle Sam has become odious. The SCO summit, representing organisations that account for roughly 40 per cent of all the people in the world, issued a joint declaration that laid bare the depth of internatio
