Venerdì esce il libreria "Africa rossa: il modello cinese e il continente del futuro", libro in cui cerco di spiegare la strategia cinese in Africa, dai Ming fino a Xi Jinping. Grazie a @LasinoDoroEdiz e @simopieranni per la bellissima prefazione. A breve novità su @chinafiles

Escorted by a convoy of motorcycles, the motorcade of Xi Jinping, general secretary of the Communist Party of China Central Committee and Chinese president, passed through the Arch of Triumph in Pyongyang.
Xi arrived on Monday for a state visit to the DPRK.
Looks like Xi Jinping is airbound for DPRK, marking his 1st int'l trip for 2026.
Things I'm looking out for in meeting KJU:
- Joint statement yes or no?
- Any ref. to denuclearization, sanctions relief, US-DPRK?
- Any Mass Games performance for Xi (like the one pictured below)
