How exquisite: Trump's economic nationalism drives our longest ally into Beijing's arms. The art of the deal, indeed alienate democracies, strengthen adversaries, declare victory. One almost admires the consistency with which he transforms friends into rivals and rivals into necessities.

And there is zero reason to believe these would happen in a PRC-annexed TW. Obv the main reason Taiwanese people don't want to join the PRC is because they like democracy but Beijing's claim that they would be richer and more secure is just not plausible

Was he drunk, or was he dreaming?
Beijing’s propaganda relies on aesthetic control of tone — “peace,” “stability,” “mutual respect,” good relations!
He phrasing reshapes it into one of two equal civilizations, erasing moral and political asymmetries.

Why China chose tech-hub Shenzhen to host the 2026 Apec summit
China’s decision to host next year’s Apec summit in the innovation hub of Shenzhen reflects Beijing’s “resolve to uphold openness”, according to analysts. Highlighting the southern city’s spectacular growth over the past few decades, Chinese President Xi Jinping announced the decision at the end of the 2025 Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (Apec) summit in Gyeongju, South Korea, on Saturday. “Located on the Pacific coast and adjacent to Hong Kong, Shenzhen has transformed from a backward fishing village into a modern international metropolis in just a few decades,” Xi said.
