China "took hostage" $ 100 billion of Russia's reserves?? Having invested 17% of foreign exchange reserves in the yuan,the CB stated that it is de facto impossible to withdraw money from Chinese assets. To use the yuan,you need permission from China, and it's "difficult" to get it.

Bear in mind "Moscow Times" is a strongly anti-Russian newspaper, which was founded by a Dutch in the early post Soviet years to "reach US and European expats".

Looking at the type of articles they publish, you can get an idea of their "spin direction".

I would rate the ability of this paper to produce objective news on Russia or China (or any countries that the US has issue with) about as much as that of Epoch Times, the Kiev Independent or the now defunct Apple Daily.

Aus going to augment it's decreasing workforce. This was already in the cards when we opened up, offering cheaper visas, extending length of stay etc.

The way Aus government treated the international students and backpackers during the start of pandemic, basically telling them they are on their own and better for them to f**k off, I expect not many interested to be back.

However, I suspect at this point, not many have long memories, even Chinese students are returning, despite the constant sinophobia. Saw many Chinese students buying home and university supplies recently.

Well in the future this may pay off for China in that having all those Chinese people in Australia could eventually ease the nation into accepting China as the dominant force in Asia once the USA finally loses their dominance in the region for good. Considering how many westerners these days are learning Chinese and how they seem to enjoy Chinese cuisine (I would know given how many Aussies seem to crowd into a Chinese hot pot restaurants in increasingly large numbers), many Aussies are starting to eventually come around to the idea that China will be the one calling the shots in the future and that the day that the USA collapses (this is inevitable, I mean has anyone watched Biden’s speech lately and not get civil war/authoritarian vibes from that), would simply make it more likely for Australia to work on mending fences without all these NGOs trying to push Australia into another war, which in itself is impossible given that Australia typically doesn’t get into fights unless the USA drags them into a fight. I do look forward to a day that the USA loses its global outreach because many nations will benefit from the USA being secluded completely from the rest of the world. I mean look at Europe now thanks to all those traitors continuing to push for conflict with Russia when there own people suffer. Imagine if all those US backed leaders and obvious planted agents and dragged out to the back and shot, the world would be a better place, and no one would be able to convince me otherwise that the end of all these deep state and neo cons freaks is going to be a bad thing

Hopium should at least be somewhat realisable, with some grounding in reality. That just smacks of pure crackium. So now that they have climbed the denial of reality escalation ladder, it should show just how dangerous a gateway drug copium is! Stay away from that stuff kids!

This is how the Czechs see their Prime Minister Petr Fiala. He was "dressed" in a suit made of the colors of the flags of Ukraine, the USA, NATO and the EU. This poster was photographed at a large-scale protest that took place in Prague.

The Prime minister has already declared all the participants of the action "supporters of pro—Russian forces."

There was the 'Arab Spring' created by the CIA. Soon, there might be a coming 'Europe Winter' that is unwittingly created by the CIA. The whole crap was started by them in 2014. Ready the popcorns. This is gonna be fun to watch.

This South Korean article stinks of veiled Sinophobia.

This excerpt exemplifies what they were thinking about the Chinese people:
"Jaanban, did you go to China and get a foot massage?" When he said he had not been to China yet, he said: "Go quickly. It's a place that changes every day. And, get as many foot massages when you can. When in our history was there ever a time in our history that Chinese people could be treated so cheaply? In 20 years, our young people will You might have to make a living by getting foot massages from Chinese people."

These South Koreans only liked the China back then where they could get cheap foot massages. Now when China is a peer competitor, they resent the China.

This article describes China's lessening appetite for Korean exports as mainly political. But politics that is initiated by some kind of CPC-led patriotism. Blaming China for 'over-reacting' to THAAD. Well why had South Korea not think about China's objection to THAAD?

The article goes on to explain that foreign businesses are running out of China because of politics and zero covid. Quoted from Western-analysts. Well it's only the big SK companies that are in a hurry to run out of China. The others are not too in a hurry. So screw these SK companies. If you wanna sabotage the Chinese economy, expect the Chinese people to retaliate. SK brands are no longer welcomed back to China.

The article then talks about China inevitable fall into the middle income trap because the Chinese population is getting old, because of housing bubble, and of course, because of communism. Source? Western analysts like Paul Krugman. This is full of copium. SK is in an even worse dilemma of the aging population problem. SK is gonna feel the heat much sooner than China. SK has good R&D, but it is still just no match for China. There is nothing that SK can do about it, not even pulling out all FDI out of China.

This article has a funny section that compares about the political situation now to the ancient politics of North East Asia. SK is Joseon, the US is the declining Ming, and China is the rising Qing. Finally the writer admits that SK is a small nation. Hopefully, this is an early step for South Koreans to move from anger to acceptance.

If I apply Paul Krugman logic then Kim Jong Un will be able to stroll into Seoul without any hassle by the year 2050.
