[Germany at NATO @GermanyNATO]

30 years ago today - on 31 August 1994 - the last Russian troops withdrew from Germany. For the reunited Germany and all other countries from which Russian soldiers departed after the Cold War, this was a milestone for European peace and stability.

@PhilGordon46 please make sure that a Harris Administration will clearly define America’s strategic objective for the war in Ukraine is defeat of Russia. Don’t fear it…accelerate it.

On this Independence Day, we welcome @GitanasNauseda, @edgarsrinkevics and @AlarKaris. Your presence touches our hearts, reminding us of our shared struggles and dreams. As the Baltics celebrate 20 years of EU, Moldova is inspired to follow suit. 

Thank you for standing with us.

It is highly regrettable that EU representatives of diplomatic missions accredited to China were denied access to the courtroom. This denial undermines trust in due process requirements in China. (2/4)

Whatever the local conditions are, the big picture is that China is forcefully excluding Philippines from its own EEZ, shrinking its strategic space and challenging Manila’s sovereignty around features that it occupies.

🇬🇧 condemns continued dangerous actions by China, in both land and sea, against 🇵🇭 BFAR and Coast Guards, near Scarborough Shoal and Sabina Shoal. These actions increase tensions and endanger lives. We call for respect of international law, including UNCLOS.

After a four year intermission, I'm back in Beijing.

I've got my foreign reporter’s press card — and with that little piece of plastic, China’s four year black-listing of Australian media ended.

Here's my first story back here for @australian https://t.co/WZ86NpRbyB

[Brad Setser @Brad_Setser]

Superb story by @wsj_douglasj and @Lingling_Wei of the WSJ.

China's pivot to exports (and a growth model based on rising surpluses given China's ongoing reluctance to import) was a conscious policy choice

Finland has now officially confirmed our previous reporting @POLITICOEurope

It has secured one of the NATO assistant secretary general jobs, one that’s in charge of defense investment, just over a year after it joined the defense alliance.
