The People’s Republic of China has tried to maintain a balance between its relations with Russia, the West, and Europe while pursuing its own economic interests. Maidah Tariq delves into how Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has posed challenges for China and changed its priorities.

https://lnkd.in/gZf5pqxv ‘Diplomatic Engagement’ Camouflages the Betrayal of Israel The folly of diplomacy as the way to lasting peace in the Middle East. October 2, 2024 by Bruce Thornton And the most dangerous of these diplomatic farces has been the “Iran nuclear deal” that brought Iran––through nearly a blood-stained decade of violations and terrorism––to the brink of possessing nuclear weapons. Yet despite that feckless history––which Donald Trump stopped, but and the Biden administration resumed with his cringing appeasement of Iran––the Dems’ foreign policy operatives continue to keep the deal on life-support. But the diplomacy serves another purpose: to camouflage our betrayal of Israel, the primary target of Iran’s nuclear ambitions to conduct a second Holocaust and dominate the regions. Biden’s claim that “a diplomatic solution is still possible” and “remains the only path to lasting security” is sheer folly when dealing with a regime that is motivated by a spiritual imperative. Only force that neutralizes the threat can create “lasting peace” for Israel, our other allies in the region, and our own country. Israel knows this eternal truth of conflict, and gave the West an object-lesson in deterrence last week when it decapitated Hezbollah’s leadership, including head honcho Hassan Nasrallah, and concentrated the mullah’s minds as well. Joe Biden and his foreign policy advisors need to learn this lesson too, and stop urging Israel to show “restraint” and “de-escalation,” as the Wall Street Journal put it. Such browbeating of an ally fighting for its life is nothing but shameless betrayal.

China 🇨🇳: By letting the US deploy medium-range ballistic missiles on Philippine soil, the Philippines is enabling the US—a country outside the region—to sow tension and antagonism in this region, and incite geopolitical confrontation and arms race. The USA should back off! But Biden ? He will go to war! The green light for war is obvious! Real sick no more diplomacy it seems just like Jeffrey Sachs stated : Now is the time for talks that will bring us closer to peace and away from a deadly and destructive war with no end in sight. There has been a complete collapse of diplomacy between the US and Russia, and a near-total collapse between the US and China. Europe, which has made itself far too dependent on the US for its own good, simply follows the Washington line. The absence of diplomacy creates a dynamic of escalation that can lead to nuclear war. The highest priority for global peace is to re-establish US diplomacy with Russia and China. Peace not war development not destruction

Asia Times [excerpt]: Marcos Jr’s decision to fortify bilateral #defense cooperation with the US, barely a month after a state visit to Beijing, was doubly surprising. For starters, it ran counter to his initial push for a “new golden era” of bilateral relations with #China and his longtime emphasis on diplomacy and balanced relations with superpowers. But even more surprising has been his decision to expand the parameters of the EDCA with a northern orientation toward #Taiwan rather than a western one towards the #SouthChinaSea, where Manila and Beijing are at heated loggerheads over contested territories and features. The bulk of the new bases under the expanded EDCA are located in northernmost Philippine provinces, namely Cagayan and Isabela, which are notably distant from the South China Sea theater. . . .Philippine authorities maintain that any cooperation with the Pentagon is primarily geared toward economic and civilian purposes. The port in Batanes, for instance, is supposed to enhance connectivity between the relatively isolated province – surrounded by rough seas and regularly battered by monsoons – and the rest of the #Philippines. As for facilities in other northern Philippine provinces, authorities insist that any US support or rotational presence will be primarily for Humanitarian Assistance and Disaster Relief (HADR) operations. But as one Washington-based observer told this author, those facilities could also be “dual-use.” For instance, EDCA facilities built for potentially housing HADR-related hardware such as cargo planes could also, in theory, host fighter jets and more offensive-oriented weapons systems. But as Steve Tsang, director of the China Institute at London’s School of Oriental and Africa Studies, recently told the media, “Beijing will see any US move to build up ports and facilities…[both] overtly military ones or ostensibly civilian ones” in the Indo-Pacific as a hostile act as they can also “be used to support any potential US intervention over a Chinese use of force against Taiwan as hostile.” In particular, China fears that the US is trying to build an “island chain” of dual-purpose facilities around Taiwan to more effectively respond to any potential continency over the self-ruling island that China views as a renegade province that must eventually be “reunified” with the mainland. #news #geopolitics

22 Dec 22:40: With thanks to Yuriy 🇪🇪: ‘russia 👺🤡🤮 is prepared to sever diplomatic relations with the United States 🇺🇸 if #American authorities decide to seize russia assets or continue “fueling military escalation” in #Ukraine, said russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergey Ryabkov in an interview with Interfax … ‘: Please read on: Me: ‘russia is very good at playing ‘hardball’ and at negotiating; always using hybrid war proven methodologies. I suspect each and every country that is sitting in control of some russian frozen assets, and NOT just the USA, could transfer such funds to Ukraine in an accountable and controlled way for agreed military, finance, humanitarian and rebuilding purposes; in effect to repair russian aggression damage. russia is not a nation but a medieval gangster/mobster-led terrorist organisation that is good at making threats because they usually work. This latest ‘chess move’ is such a threat. If all countries move such assets to help Ukraine, then will russia cut off diplomatic relations to all such countries, hence isolating themselves from much of the World? It might be a really good thing. I am only thinking out loud and will re-engage tomorrow. Your Comments are all very welcome, please. And look out for the trolls comments … they’ll be out in overdrive at putin’s urgent command to maintain his pressure and lies! 👺🤡🤥🤮’:
Russia is prepared to sever diplomatic relations with the United States if #American authorities decide to seize Russian assets or continue “fueling military escalation” in #Ukraine, said Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergey Ryabkov in an interview with Interfax. “We are ready for any scenario. The U.S. should not be under any illusion, if it exists, that Russia is, so to speak, desperately clinging to diplomatic relations with this country,” Ryabkov stated. He also added that Russia does not intend to “take the initiative in breaking off” relations with the U.S., as both countries “play a central role in maintaining international security and strategic stability.” However, Ryabkov noted that it would “not come as a surprise” to the Russian authorities if #Washington officially lowered its diplomatic presence in Russia or severed relations, as the U.S. has “doctrinally enshrined its intention to inflict a strategic defeat on Russia.” Ryabkov described the overall state of Russian–American relations as “comatose” and said that the “fragile balance” could be disrupted at any moment due to “Washington's recklessness.” Putin spokesman Dmitry Peskov, commenting on the potential confiscation of Russian assets, stated that such actions are dangerous for the global financial system. He added that Russia would “never leave those who did this in peace” and would reciprocate. https://lnkd.in/durKgkZX

It looks like team Sleepy Joe Biden is asking Beijing to talk to Moscow. Biden’s sudden call to president Xi was certainly not about what the Western MSM wrote about. The Chinese FM readout was pretty direct. Concurrently the French defense minister talked to the Russian defense minister Shoigu when Anthony Hannibal Blinken was in Paris. Team Biden is panicking because they are polling badly behind Trump and why should Moscow pick up the phone? […] China is paying efforts to mediate the conflict between Russia and Ukraine since the very beginning of the crisis, and China never adds fuels to the flame, and if the US sanctions Chinese companies who do normal business with Russia in the name of "supporting Russia's war on Ukraine," that would be very unwise, as China will retaliate for sure, experts said. Cui said that the timing of Lavrov's visit to China is very interesting, as it's overlapping with the time of Yellen's visit, and takes place before the potential visit by US Secretary of State Antony Blinken, "so this just shows the complexity of the interactions between China, Russia and the US, and in the trilateral relations, China is driven by its own national interests."

The South Korean presidential office is evaluating the impact of a recent assassination attempt on former U.S. President Donald Trump on Korea-U.S. relations, particularly considering President Yoon Suk Yeol's diplomatic accomplishments with current U.S. President Joe Biden. Despite assurances from Trump's camp that the Korea-U.S. alliance would be strengthened, experts warn Seoul to be prepared for a potential return of the Trump era, which may not continue current diplomatic achievements under Biden. Political tensions in Korea have also risen following recent attacks on politicians this year. #AsiaRisk #GeopoliticalConflictandDisputes #SouthKorea Follow us for daily updates on risk and operations in Asia! https://lnkd.in/gUcFZ9ju

The U.S. restates its goal of 'full' Korean Peninsula denuclearization, after North Korea signals openness to improving ties with Japan as long as Tokyo does not take issue with its "right to self-defense." The State Department and Pentagon express support for diplomatic outreach to North Korea, while also emphasizing the U.S. policy of achieving the full denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula. There are concerns about whether North Korea's interest in high-level diplomacy with Japan could impact trilateral security cooperation between Seoul, Washington, and Tokyo. #AsiaRisk #GeopoliticalConflictandDisputes #SouthKorea Follow us for daily updates on risk and operations in Asia! https://lnkd.in/gygFaHUF

North Korea and China marked the 75th anniversary of their diplomatic relations on October 6, expressing a mutual desire for stronger ties despite external skepticism. North Korean leader Kim Jong Un reaffirmed his commitment to enhancing relations, while Chinese President Xi Jinping showed readiness to collaborate on their socialist agenda. Observers anticipate that upcoming exchanges will reveal the true dynamics of their partnership. China, North Korea's largest trading partner and main source of aid, has faced criticism for not fully enforcing U.N. sanctions and allegedly providing covert support to North Korea. However, experts suggest that China prioritizes regional stability and is unlikely to form a tripartite alliance with North Korea and Russia, as this could harm its economic relations with other countries. In contrast, North Korea has deepened its ties with Russia, allegedly supplying arms for the Ukraine conflict in return for military and economic support. The recent military pact between Kim and Russian President Vladimir Putin highlights their growing cooperation, reminiscent of Cold War alliances. As these relationships evolve, North Korea is also enhancing its military readiness, with Kim focusing on guerrilla warfare tactics in response to perceived threats from the U.S. and South Korea. #AsiaRisk #GeopoliticalConflictandDisputes #India Follow us for daily updates on risk and operations in Asia! https://lnkd.in/gZwj_CbJ
