Some rumours on social media say China has lifted export restrictions of rare earth, fertilisers, tunnel boring machines to India.

Has this been officially confirmed or the typical fake news from Indian propaganda?
The question is what China actually got in return. If they didn't get anything and just did this to keep India friendly then its a huge loss for China. I hope they are not that naive

That doesn't tell a lot, China GDP PPP is about 40 trillion, twice the EU, given that China today is more self-reliant that have ever been, now matter more than in the past. China GDP growth is about 5%, the US is 2.0% and the EU is about 1.3%. So China is growing three time faster than the EU. And China high tech firms are having more growing influence that EU high tech firms, with the exception of ASML, just look AI for comparison.

Ten reasons why the Ukraine war will end soon:

One reason why the Ukraine war will not end soon:
This faulty reasons. why war ending should depend on Ukrane lack of weopons or Zelensky land swap? It entirely depends on when Russia effectively deploy its weopons. Every time they get new upgrade they put new date on it and this is weopon testing. and this Muslim deployment on entire front line is additional exercise. they are doing much more internally and this is dictating time line.

I thought people were finally starting to wise up over GDP. Yet here we have people still even using the nominal version. Considering the USD power is weakening, it just shows people may never learn until its too late.

There's Airbus but COMAC will take care of that next decade.

How can it just cross the border "freely"?


Pretty good write up about how China is a nation of engineers and America is a nation of lawyers. But its still misses a crucial issue in the US China comparison. China is a nation of workers and producers and the US is a nation of speculators and consumers. The gap between the US and China is far larger than the authors of this article or the book would suggest. The underpinning of China's economy is production while the underpinning of the US economy is speculation. And unless America allows its massive and multiple asset bubble's to burst and suffer the consequences of that. And start from the bottom America will not be able to effectively compete against China.

US is colonial. The poor countries are it's producers and workers from which it buys tangible goods for cheap using wealth generated from intangible speculation and bogus financial instruments. Constant warfare and political interference is necessary to sustain this system.

A notable example of such systems is the French-African CFA system - France issues the currency of many west African countries and routinely devalues it so imports from Africa remain cheap while Africans remain perpetually poor.

The real danger to US is these poor countries ditching the existing system and developing beyond it's limit set by the US (i.e. with projects like OBOR).

So they really did make Zelensky dress appropriately for the occasion.

One other point, as what we are living through today, is about those four tigers.

Just go Google this term, East Asian economic miracle.

This is what you get



My point is, two fold.

What China accomplished, now seems like it has far exceeded what the four tigers did, and what Japan did, in terms of speed and scale. This is shock and awe.

No one in the lying Liberal media ever describes China's ascent as a miracle, a term that was in wide use to describe the Asian Tigers back then, and yet as of today, we can confidently say China is exceeding them, because that is just the plain truth. No miracles here now, nothing to see here, no more!



"No one in the lying Liberal media ever describes China's ascent as a miracle, a term that was in wide use to describe the Asian Tigers back then, and yet as of today, we can confidently say China is exceeding them, because that is just the plain truth."

You write that no one in the "Liberal" media refers to China's rise as a miracle, but I'd wager that few in the Occidental mainstream conservative/right-wing media do, either. Nevertheless, your overall point is well-taken. As do you, I also believe that the rate and scale of China's economic and technological development have exceeded that of the so-called "Asian Tigers." Why, then, is China's rise not likewise referred to as a "miracle"? Because from the Occidental Abrahamic perspective, the ChiComs are demons if not Satan him/herself, and by definition, the works of demons/Satan cannot be "miracles."
