  • New York Times：Xi Jinping Heads to Pakistan, Bearing Billions in Infrastructure Aid

    The New York Times reports, "China's president, Xi Jinping, travels to Pakistan on Monday laden with tens of billions of dollars in infrastructure and energy assistance on a scale the United States has never offered in the past decade of a close relationship, a gesture likely to confirm the decline of American influence in that nation. Mr. Xi, making his first overseas trip this year, and the first by a Chinese leader to Pakistan in nine years, will arrive fortified from the robust reception to the new China-led Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank, and is looking to show that China can make a difference in a friendly, neighboring country troubled by terrorism. Pakistani officials say that Mr. Xi will be signing accords for $46 billion for the construction of roads, rails and power plants to be built on a commercial basis by Chinese companies over 15 years."

  • Wall Street Journal：China Speeds Up Solar Drive
    According to The Wall Street Journal, "China accelerated its solar-energy buildout in the first quarter, adding 18% to total capacity as the government prioritized renewable-energy investment to clean the skies and shore up economic growth...The newly released data provide early indications of how China intends to pursue ambitious climate-change targets that it agreed on with the U.S. last year. Under the deal, China will peak its carbon emissions no later than 2030 and increase the nonfossil-fuel share of its energy consumption to 20%, up from around 10% in recent years."
  • Huffington Post：America's China Consensus Slowly Unravels
    "For a long time American (and Australian) thinking about China has been dominated by a broad consensus that, despite many signs of growing assertiveness, Beijing does not pose a fundamental challenge to U.S. leadership in Asia...But that consensus may be unraveling, at least in America. Washington's AIIB debacle seems to have sounded a wake-up call and now, just last week, two major reports from the heart of the U.S. foreign policy establishment have chimed in too. Both reports argue that China's challenge to U.S. primacy in Asia is for real, and that America's policy in Asia needs to shift radically to respond," discusses an opinion article from The Huffington Post.
