Liu Zongyi: The Crux of the Current China-India Relations
China and India are trying to resolve the boundary standoff and ease bilateral tensions through diplomatic and military channels. I recently participated in track-two dialogues aimed at deepening mutual understanding, some of which involved the Indian Ambassador to China. However, based on my observation, the ongoing boundary standoff is a reflection of the underlying problems within the bilateral relationship. There is a big gap between China and India on certain issues which make it difficult for the two sides to reach a consensus.

Liu Zongyi: Domestic politics, nationalism misguide India's China policy
Despite the de-escalation of border tensions between China and India, New Delhi hasn't stopped its China smear campaign, accusing Beijing of being expansionist. At an all-party meeting on June 19, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi said that no one entered Indian territory, nor were Indian posts taken, but he strongly criticized "expansionism" in early July, saying "era of expansionism is over" as he paid a visit to a border military base. This was widely regarded as a message sent to China, though Modi did not mention China specifically.

AIIB meeting to boost regional cooperation amid tension
As leaders, officials and experts meet virtually on Tuesday for a meeting of the 102-member Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB), they will likely focus on boosting regional and global cooperation, and highlighting the urgency to stand up to a rising tide of anti-globalization amid profound challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic, Chinese experts said on Monday. The meeting also comes as the US increasingly seeks to stir up tension in Asia and beyond. In a speech scheduled for the annual meeting of the China-initiated multilateral investment bank, Chinese President Xi Jinping will also likely reiterate China's unwavering support for inclusive global cooperation and encapsulate China's long-standing guiding principle for foreign policy that is based on mutual respect and benefit, in stark contrast to the US' ideologically driven and inward-looking approach defined by its recent relentless attacks on China, experts noted.

He Weiwen: China’s Rebound
China’s National Bureau of Statistics released a report on July 16 on Q2 economic performance that showed 3.2 percent GDP growth year-on-year, a dramatic rebound from the 6.8 percent decline registered in Q1, thus narrowing the H1 fall to 1.6 percent from a year ago. China’s sharp V-shaped economic upturn serves as a bright lighthouse in a world of economic darkness in which most of the leading economies continue to struggle with the worst recession since the Great Depression of the 1930s. Nicolas Lardy, senior fellow at the Peterson Institute of International Economy, regards it as an important and positive contribution to the world economy.

Zhao Minghao: Trump policy toward China skewed by academic fanatic
As a Chinese researcher of the US, I have been searching for the best way to understand the country. I spent some time studying at Purdue University in Indiana, which is a very "American" place. While there, I not only discussed international relations problems with US professors, but also attended local church activities where I listened to ordinary Americans praying and singing songs in praise of God. I still miss that place and those kind and friendly Americans.

Small firms seek big global roles
China's small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) hoping to succeed overseas need to improve safety and risk control capabilities by cooperating with local governments and service providers in the COVID-19 era, experts said. This is essential as international trade has been affected in many ways due to the pandemic's impact on supply chains, industrial chains, finance and human capital flow, they said.

【Forbes】The Dollar Is A ‘Sword Of Damocles’ Over China
The dollar is the weapon. China can’t survive as it does without it. And even if it convinces Iran to sell oil to them in renminbi...do the Iranians even want renminbi? Maybe they can pay in gold bars? On July 20, The Global Times, one of the bigger, English-language voices of the Chinese establishment, wrote what may appear more like a message to its trading partners: the global trend toward "de-dollarization" has already begun, wrote Wang Wen, professor and executive dean of the Chongyang Institute for Financial Studies at Renmin University of China. The last piece of the "load-bearing wall" of the "U.S. Empire State Building" has cracked

William Jones: The last thing Trump should do is push China as his country falters
With the enforced closure of the Chinese Consulate General in Houston and US State Secretary Mike Pompeo's declaration at the Richard Nixon Presidential Library in California that engagement with China, as we have known it, is now at an end, it is difficult to see how an era of cooperation between the US and China can be soon reestablished. Obviously President Donald Trump, taking a hit in the polls, feels that taking a tough anti-China stance will help him win the next election, and so he is playing into the China-bashing strategy laid out by his secretary of state.

William Jones: Can the U.S. learn to live with a rising China?
This was the "fundamental choice" for America as posed by China's Ambassador to the U.S., Cui Tiankai, in a recent interview with CNN's Fareed Zakaria. Now Chinese diplomats are being closely monitored in their contacts with U.S. officials at all levels of government. Chinese scholars working and studying in the United States are being hounded and in some cases thrown out of the country on alleged suspicions of "spying" for China. U.S. firms are being encouraged to shun China and a Chinese consulate in the U.S. has been abruptly ordered to shut down.

Closing Chinese consulate in Houston jeopardizes trade worth billions
Washington’s order forcing the Chinese Consulate General in Houston to close will likely hamper business ties worth billions of dollars between the eight US states that the consulate serves and China, a former Chinese diplomat in the US said. In what Chinese officials call an “unprecedented” escalation of tensions, the US government has ordered the consulate closed, the Chinese Foreign Ministry confirmed on Wednesday. The consulate, which opened in 1979, serves eight southern US states – Texas, Oklahoma, Louisiana, Arkansas, Alabama, Georgia, Florida and Puerto Rico.

Mixed signals from France on Huawei spark concern
France's reported "hidden" ban on Huawei will not only delay 5G commercialization in the country that could have taken the lead in utilizing next-generation technology, but will increase uncertainties for local telecom operators, which are now struggling amid a severe economic downturn, analysts said. French authorities have told telecom operators planning to buy Huawei 5G equipment that they won't be able to renew licenses for the gear once they expire in 2028, effectively phasing the Chinese firm out of mobile networks, Reuters said.

With COVID-19 deal reached, EU comes out stronger but problems remain
As the EU summit wraps up its marathon sessions in Brussels, leaders of the 27 member states have walked out of the conference with a deal that EU officials call a historical step towards greater integration. While this apparent victory indeed calls for celebration, experts say it should not overshadow the underlying problems that were brought to light during the fractious summit.
