EU and China sign a Mandate of Trade Heaven
Posted by seumasach on April 12, 2019
Another historic development as the EU reaffirms its independence from one-time overlord, the USA. Escobar, however, goes too far in asserting that Europe is China’s priority rather than the US but Eurasian integration certainly should certainly impel Washington towards integrating itself into the unfolding multipolar reality. The barriers to this stem from the inertia of US elites still harbouring hegemonist dreams when even a new Monroe doctrine seems beyond them.

The Middle East is metamorphosing. New fault-lines are emerging, yet Trump’s foreign policy ‘hawks’ still try to stage ‘old movies’ in a new ‘theatre’.

It appears the political and security elites in the United States are preparing for an OK Corral-type showdown with China. On December 1, the US Justice Department asked (some would argue pressured) Canada to arrest Meng Wanzhou, the chief financial officer of Chinese telecommunications giant Huawei, on a provisional warrant. It went on to charge two Chinese government employees with stealing information from firms and governments in 12 countries.

The new Great Game on the Roof of the World
Posted by seumasach on December 20, 2018
As with Mahathir in Malaysia so, now with Imran Khan: both are driving hard bargains with China and the Belt and Road Initiative is by no means one-way traffic. A genuine multipolarity is emerging with strategic autonomy as the watchword as all players seek to benefit from the greatest development project in human history.

On top of the graceful Baltit Fort, overlooking the Hunza Valley’s Shangri-La-style splendor, it’s impossible not to feel dizzy at the view: an overwhelming collision of millennia of geology and centuries of history.
