Because the economy is going to softland, inflation is down, and anyone who says otherwise is promoting vibecession and probably a Trump supporter. #BidenWins #GreatestEconomy #FourMoreYear

Hey Ma Yilong, maybe you should move your Tesla HQ from Texas to Shanghai and make Tesla into a Chinese company instead of an American one, with Chinese execs, Chinese-style management and Chinese-integrated supply network? Perhaps a Sinicized Tesla will be able to survive somwhat?


Yet, at least Ma Yilong is still better than that "Chyna will always be 10 years behind the industry" guy at Intel.
I feel sometimes people take this quote too seriously.
Elon Musk has proven historically to be 80% BS boasting, but the 20% that hits the mark is usually impressive. He is too smart to have actually thought that Chinese cars would not pose an challenge.

You aren't too off. Operationally, China is probably the center of Tesla. The Shanghai plant is actually Tesla's most important. It is #1 in output and was building the new models before the American ones, so it is actually where they perfect their new processes. It is said that Tom Zhu is basically the #2 guy. However, the financial centre is still USA.

Plenty of clever people are also incredibly arrogant and ignorant. Those are not mutually exclusive traits.

The west has long drawn a digital iron curtain over China to suppress and distort all news and information about China that their populations are allowed to see to such an extent that it is virtually impossible not be to highly biased and wrong about China if you live in the west, unless you go to China yourself and spend a decent amount of time to actually get to know the place and people, which most tourists won’t have the opportunity to do.

It’s only expats who have lived and worked in China for years that can see the truth, little wonder most of them end up catching a wumao charge.

between Hamas and Israel that would involve the release of all remaining hostages held in Gaza and the longest cessation of hostilities since the war began last year, according to officials familiar with the matter.

Burns is expected to travel to Europe for the talks and meet with the Israeli and Egyptian intelligence chiefs, David Barnea and Abbas Kamel, and Qatari Prime Minister Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al Thani, these people said, speaking on the condition of anonymity to discuss sensitive negotiations. The planned gathering has not been previously reported.

Is getting rid of Netanyahu part of this "deal"?

Either he is stupid or deliberately not reveal the real reasons for lack of capacity. Arabs knows that West is in Industrial decline post Covid so they keep ordering stuff on such scale that every one is engaged in there orders and much less left for anything else.
than there was news about double tap on French and Samp-T missile destruction in Ukraine but the way it was presented in Arabic that like some one told about there location. I have no doubt Gulf Arabs with there wealth and muslims inside Ukraine can reveal things. Such place is always have this risk of every one against every one. and who knows this Zelensky himself sending people. Zelensky is not in Europe interest.

If EU insist on being American vassals, it would be wise to break it. It would be same as hurting US directly but without risk of fighting US. Unlike US, EU is too weak to fight back. They have neither political will, economic capacity, nor military might to challenge China in any form of conflict.

From trade war, Ukraine proxy war, or political subterfuge, EU is all 1 good hit away from collapse. And this is all just Russia, China didnt even start shooting!
this all just Arabs. They have sent EU into economic coma but they will not let it die but needy. Look at increase in global south population in Spain alone. do you think Russia can attack EU when Arabs are so deep into it whether its Healthcare to Education to tourism to Aviation everything is at personal level. let Arabs manage it.
Russia is trying to create alternative but it will take a while. it is still at Learning phase.
When you gather other Africans to meet an African is an Arab style where gather people surrounding countries for a guest. he has to show his white dress.

Russia reveals progress on new gas pipeline to China​

The timing and cost of the construction of the new mega pipeline Power of Siberia 2, which will deliver Russian natural gas to China, will be determined after Moscow and Beijing sign binding agreements, Deputy Prime Minister Aleksandr Novak announced on Thursday.

He also revealed that technical and economic analysis had already been carried out and that the resource base and preliminary technological parameters for the new pipeline had been assessed.

Power of Siberia 2 is expected to allow for up to 50 billion cubic meters (bcm) of gas to be delivered annually from Yamal Region in northern Russia to China via Mongolia. This is nearly as much as the now idle Nord Stream 1 pipeline under the Baltic Sea, which was damaged by explosions in September 2022.

The deputy prime minister also highlighted soaring gas exports to China via the existing mega pipeline, the Power of Siberia.

“Russia’s diversification of gas exports to new markets continues with a focus on deeper cooperation with countries in the Asia-Pacific region. We are rapidly increasing gas exports to China via the Power of Siberia pipeline, and a Far Eastern route project with a capacity of 10 bcm is being implemented,” Novak noted.

Appears that only the contract negotiations are remaining before construction can begin on the Power of Serbia 2 pipeline,
