"Kenya President cancels deals with Adani Group and receives standing ovation in Parliament"
I never understood the mentality if you want someone to deal with China, pick the guy that has had zero exposure to it.
I wonder if this is a sign that something is afoot. With Trump, chances are low but he is the only one that can follow in the footsteps of "only Nixon can go to China". He does like doing the unexpected. Now there are two people in Trump's circle that have a lot to lose in a worsening trade war on China.
Even Africa is getting tired of India now."Kenya President cancels deals with Adani Group and receives standing ovation in Parliament"
People really underestimate China's tactical finesse, Xi's admin is not just able to bluntly spam his economical advantage to beat US."Kenya President cancels deals with Adani Group and receives standing ovation in Parliament"
兵者,诡道也. As Sun Tzu said all war is by deception. Never show your cards when possible.People really underestimate China's tactical finesse, Xi's admin is not just able to bluntly spam his economical advantage to beat US.
We're seeing essentially a succesful version of an economic Schlieffen plan. Between Adani leaks, geopolitical offensive in Bangladesh, Africa, tensions inflamed between West and India, India will be subdued before Trump can even assume office.
The key is that none of these moves heavily rely on China's economic advantage. It's all assymetrical surround from the countryside plays.
Bezos smelled the coffee and ordered Washington Post to jumb from the Democratic rat ship. That Pentagon cloud contract is coming closer and closer to him..That was some fast debunking![]()
The Observer Research Foundation is the top think tank in India, though tbh the other think tanks regurgitate the same anti-China talking points.
- HARSH V. PANT is Vice President for Studies and Foreign Policy at the Observer Research Foundation in New Delhi.
- KALPIT A. MANKIKAR is Fellow for China Studies at the Observer Research Foundation in New Delhi.
Few people on the planet has bigger exposure to China than Elon, Lutnick's ties are pretty trivial in comparison.
But there is a chance Americans infact do not actually realize that, their past behaviour seem to suggest they only understand financial concepts and do not know China is ahead in most technology, Tesla isn't a joint venture in China and they don't talk at all about the Chinese tech in their vehicles or the Chinese supply chain that allows them to make a profit on EVs, Elon's vulnerability is entirely from concepts Americans don't understand and he might appear to be independent when it comes to concepts they do understand.
If that's the case it could get a lot more interesting than baseline scenerio.
