Djoomart Otorbaev: Government operation styles will be different after the pandemic
Global re-orientation to online formats caused by the pandemic will continue and gets in an irreversible course in the post-pandemic era. What is effectively working online is unlikely to return offline. A significant part of the retail businesses will go online and stay there because consumers will be convinced that they can purchase without going physically to the shops. Our transition to the digital age has accelerated enormously. What would be realized in decades is happening in months.

He Weiwen: US to suffer more if it decouples with China
The United States' stigmatization of and hostile actions toward China have, among other things, raised concerns that China might be isolated from the global supply chain and its economy decoupled from that of the US, especially in high-tech and trade.The US high-tech ban on China targets 5G technology, cyber communications, semiconductor chips and artificial intelligence, in a bid to prevent China from challenging the US' dominant role in world trade. Such measures, though they will cause difficulties for Huawei and other Chinese companies in the short term, will result in just the opposite in the long run.

Growing social division, far-left and far-right confrontation underlying cause for unrest
As the ongoing protests in the US have convulsed at least 140 cities across the country following the death of African-American George Floyd, US President Donald Trump tried to pin the blame on Antifa, a far-left movement, for causing the disturbance. However, his "passing the buck" tactic is of no use to fix the deep-rooted discrimination problem in the country and an increasingly divided society with extremist views prevailing since Trump assumed office.

US protests expose a 'failed state' as officials resort to blame game
As the world watches the US being confronted with massive riots, looting, chaos and heightened violence, US officials, instead of reflecting on the systematic problems in their society that led to such a crisis, have returned to their old "blame game" against left-wingers, "fake news" media and "external forces."

John Ross: The decisive role of poverty reduction in China's 2020 targets
The centrality of poverty reduction to China's state policy was once more strongly emphasized by the Report on the Work of the Government to this year's full session of the National People's Congress, China's top legislature. The novel coronavirus outbreak has evidently struck a heavy blow to the Chinese economy, and the pandemic's indirect international consequences are creating the greatest global economic downturn since the Great Depression, which will weigh negatively on China throughout this year. For this latter reason, as is well known, China took the unusual step of not setting an economic growth target for 2020. But the commitment to eliminating poverty was emphatically retained within the government's program.

William Jones: Which way will the international winds blow after COVID-19 pandemic?
As President Trump announced that he will hold a G7 Summit at the White House in June, in the hope of bringing the world economy back into operation after the lockdown of a large amount of world production during the COVID-19 pandemic, he will no doubt also make a concerted effort to pull the large G7 countries behind his campaign of ostracizing China. And while the other major countries will probably come to Washington at Trump's invitation, it is far from clear that they will follow his lead in this ill-designed campaign.

John Ross: Why the US is intensifying its attack on the UK over Huawei
The connections may not immediately seem evident between COVID-19, Brexit, and the new intensified drive by the US to try to force Britain to cut Huawei out of its 5G network. But they immediately become clear when the present economic, and therefore geopolitical, consequences of the US and UK governments' catastrophic errors in mishandling COVID-19 are understood.

How do experts view financial conflict of top two economies?
Some US politicians have been relentlessly pursuing an escalation in tension with China for the sake of short-term political interests, even at the cost of the US' leading financial position in the world.
