Article by Global Times says that 1) security measures have been taken in Moscow 2) Wagner HQ in St. Petersburg is normal 3) RF MOD says all that Prigozhin says is untrue and provocative 4) RF security bureau started criminal case against Prigozhin.

On #Weibo: when the Party line on what’s going on in #Russia is so unclear that even loyal Global Times followers don't understand what is going on. Most liked comment: “After I finished reading, I have no idea at all what you just said.”

“A more promising trend has received less attention from outside observers: #China’s maturing legal system is providing increased protection and justice for victims of sexual abuse.” - click to read on this hopefully influential case!

[The Diplomat @Diplomat_APAC]

In a national first, a victim of childhood sexual abuse was awarded financial compensation and public apology in Chinese civil court – even after the statute of limitations lapsed. @LauravMegen explains.

Important read by Peking Univ. scholar Lu Feng (路风) on the 🇺🇸-🇨🇳 #CHIP War.

▫️ "Since the #UnitedStates has used its ‘nuclear weapon’ [i.e. tech] against China, #China should strike back and use its own ‘nuclear weapon’ [i.e. its market]."
