Thoughts on recent reading

Those who follow the international news can hardly fail to be aware that the world seems to be spiralling out of control and that the regulatory systems put in place after the Second World War are struggling to keep pace.

Overview of recent developments on China

We should expect China to practice a proactive diplomacy, trying to generate successes like the recent Iran-Saudi Arabia rapprochement. China does not have a credible position as a mediator in the Ukraine conflict, especially since they agree with several of the underlying worldviews of Russia, including condemning the interference of the West, the start of negotiations from geopolitical realities like lost territory and more.
