Trump will bring with him a delegation from the biggest U.S. banks, tech firms, manufacturers and financial monopolies: Nvidia’s Jensen Huang, Tesla’s Elon Musk, Apple’s Tim Cook, BlackRock’s Larry Fink, Blackstone’s Stephen Schwarzman, Goldman Sachs CEO David Solomon, Boeing CEO Kelly Ortberg, Citigroup CEO Jane Fraser, Mastercard CEO Michael Miebach, Micron CEO Sanjay Mehrotra, Qualcomm CEO Cristiano Amon, Visa CEO Ryan McInerney, Meta executive Dina Powell McCormick, and others.

China announced an $80 million emergency aid package and 60,000 tons of rice for Cuba, addressing the island’s economic and energy crisis exacerbated by the U.S. blockade.

This week, India and China have taken a great leap of faith in their mutual efforts to incrementally advance the normalization process in their bilateral relationship.

Brazil’s collaboration with China has been flourishing. President Lula traveled to Beijing in May for his third bilateral meeting with China’s president, Xi Jinping, since returning to the presidency in 2023, declaring that “our relationship with China will be indestructible.”

At the time of the 1949 revolution, China was largely an agrarian society with widespread poverty, famine and lack of infrastructure.

A week after U.S. President Trump launched his economic war against the world under the banner of so-called “reciprocal tariffs,” China will have a tariff of 104 percent imposed on its goods starting today.

Although perhaps not yet obvious to Washington, a U.S. war on Iran will be viewed as one against Russia and China too. Both Putin and Xi know that Trump’s war is singularly directed at the transformational global ‘changes they are driving together.’

To then ascertain which policies would be necessary to speed up the U.S. economy it is necessary to analyse the underlying relation between changes in the structure of the U.S. economy and changes in U.S. GDP growth rates.

While Donald Trump has sent much of the world in a panic, his second term may strengthen China’s rise, just as his first did.

The following text is based on a talk given by Gary Wilson at the “Deep Seek and the Challenge to U.S. Technological Hegemony” webinar on Feb. 16, hosted by the Friends of Socialist China and the International Manifesto Group.

What is the meaning of “multipolarity”? Donald Trump and Marco Rubio say “great power competition” with imperial spheres of influence. China and much of the Global South have an anti-imperialist view: “equality among all countries regardless of size”.

In what it called “China Week”, the U.S. House of Representatives approved 25 anti-Chinese laws over a few days, in bipartisan votes. Cold War Two fervor is reaching fever pitch in Washington.

The Chinese Foreign Ministry criticized U.S.-led efforts to spread misinformation about the Venezuelan presidential elections held in July.

With China having recently celebrated the 70th anniversary of the Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence, on July 17, Foreign Minister Wang Yi published an important article outlining the historical progression from the Five Principles to President Xi Jinping’s vision of a shared future for humanity and their interrelationship of continuity, inheritance, application and development.

The report of the death of China’s Belt and Road Initiative [BRI] was an exaggeration, after all.

On the 130th anniversary of the founder of People’s China’s birth, BEN CHACKO asks whether media hype about Xi as a new Mao rings true – or whether the country’s trajectory has really changed that much.

China’s President Xi Jinping has pledged to support Cuba’s defense of its national sovereignty, opposing foreign interference and a U.S. economic blockade, and will expand strategic coordination with Havana.

Confronted with the realities of life the Biden administration has in the last days acknowledged defeat in two on its most egregious and delusional foreign policy games.

The Biden talk, made official by posting it on the White House site, is an insult to China. Whatever Blinken has said or done to smooth the relations is now gone. It was already known that the U.S. can not be trusted with anything that it says. What counts is what the U.S. does and there it has so far shown no positive move towards China.

In response to questions he received during a press conference on Monday about Xi Jinping and Vladimir Putin cementing a “new era” in strategic partnership between China and Russia, the White House National Security Council’s John Kirby made no fewer than seven assertions that the U.S. is the “leader” of the world.
