1 week ago Beijing expands its influence in Eurasia as Trump triggers geopolitical shifts

While United States President Donald Trump aims to end – or at least freeze – the Ukraine conflict and portray himself as a peacemaker, China seems to be quietly expanding its influence in Eurasia – a region that Halford Mackinder, “the father of geopolitics”, viewed as the key to global power.

2 w. ago How Beijing and other South China Sea claimants can see eye to eye

Few disputes in Asia are as enduring – and as polarising – as those over the South China Sea. For more than a decade, two sharply opposed narratives have dominated. In one, Beijing is seen as using force, or the threat of force, to change the status quo, undermining peace and stability. In the other, China is portrayed as exercising restraint, acting within its rights and working to safeguard regional stability. These perspectives are not merely different; they are mutually exclusive. One side’s...

2 w. ago How Beijing’s proposed new embassy in London could benefit Britain

In a world increasingly defined by digital diplomacy and virtual communication, the persistent struggle over bricks and mortar might seem like an old-fashioned skirmish. However, the ongoing saga of China’s proposed new embassy in London, England, proves that physical buildings remain potent symbols of power, prestige and national ambition.
