  • CNBC：June 12 could be a big date for US-China ties — and not because of North Korea
    CNBC reports: "The hot-and-cold relationship between the world's two largest economies could potentially take a turn for the worse on June 12. Not because of the anticipated U.S.-North Korea summit scheduled for that day, but due to a new office building in Taiwan. The American Institute in Taiwan, a non-profit that operates as the de-facto U.S. embassy in Taipei, is set to launch its new office that day and a senior U.S. official — many theorize it could be National Security Advisor John Bolton — is widely expected to attend. The $250 million facility is reportedly twice the size of the current building and represents a major strengthening of U.S.-Taiwan relations. But it could also add strain to a U.S.-China relationship that's already weighed down by trade tensions."
  • The Washington Post：China increasingly challenges American dominance of science
    The Washington Post reports: "After decades of American dominance, Chinese science is ascendant, and it is luring scientists... away from the United States. Even more China-born scientists are returning from abroad to a land of new scientific opportunity. The United States spends half a trillion dollars a year on scientific research — more than any other nation on Earth — but China has pulled into second place, with the European Union third and Japan a distant fourth. China is on track to surpass the United States by the end of this year, according to the National Science Board. In 2016, annual scientific publications from China outnumbered those from the United States for the first time."
  • Newsweek：Mike Pompeo Tells China To Own Up To How Many It Killed In Tiananmen Massacre
    Newsweek reports: "China has reacted angrily to Washington's demand it reveal how many people were killed in the Tiananmen Square massacre. Ahead of the 29th anniversary of the protests in central Beijing, U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said on Sunday how he remembered the "tragic loss of innocent lives," and that the "ghosts of June 4 have not yet been laid to rest." He was referring to the day in 1989 when the Chinese government sent in tanks to quell student-led pro-democracy protests in central Beijing. Human rights groups estimated a death toll ranging from several hundred to several thousand."
