  • TIME：Donald Trump's Shock Doctrine Will Make China Even Stronger
    TIME comments: "A Trump presidency promises to collapse the Obama Administration's "pivot" to Asia on three fundamental levels. The first is economic: by pulling out of multilateral free-trade agreements like the Trans-Pacific Partnership, the U.S. will become further disengaged from the region. Second, Trump wants America's allies to take the lead in security matters and the U.S. to reduce its role...Asia is nearing an inflection point where the unfinished business of the 20th century, namely the North/South Korea divide, territorial disputes and the matter of Taiwan, will once again emerge as the focal points of geopolitical risk in the region...Doubts over America's commitment have encouraged traditional allies and partners in the region, such as the Philippines, Thailand and Malaysia, to start hedging against an American retreat by "separating" from Washington and courting Beijing. China can use its economic pull to draw Asian nations into its geopolitical orbit, creating a zero-sum "with us or against us" dynamic to edge America aside."
  • Reuters：China says discussing return of undersea drone with U.S. military
    Reuters reports: "The Chinese and U.S. militaries are having "unimpeded" talks about the return of U.S. underwater drone taken by a Chinese naval vessel in the South China Sea last week, China's foreign ministry said on Monday...The Pentagon went public with its complaint about the incident and said on Saturday it had secured a deal to get the drone back. China's defense ministry had earlier accused Washington of hyping up the issue...U.S. President-elect Donald Trump, who has vowed to take a more aggressive approach in dealing with China over its economic and military policies, jumped on the unusual seizure with a pair of provocative tweets over the weekend, accusing Beijing of stealing the equipment."
  • The Guardian：Trump has no idea how to run a superpower, say Chinese media
    The Guardian reports: "Donald Trump appears to have not a clue how to lead a superpower. That was the conclusion of China's Global Times newspaper on Monday morning as the country's media weighed in on the president-elect's latest social media assaults on Beijing...The article came after the US president-elect again used Twitter, which has been blocked in China since 2009, to berate the leaders of the world's second largest economy...A comment piece on the front page of the overseas edition of the Communist party's official mouthpiece, the People's Daily, also suggested Beijing would not be cowed by Trump's provocations. "It is difficult to understand his true psychology," wrote Hua Yiwen, whom the paper described as an international affairs expert. 'But China shouldn't spend much effort trying to guess what he is thinking. We should simply stand firm, take control of the situation and handle it calmly.'"
