@StanfordSAPARC@nytimes@Stanford Thank you so much. This is is a great and unexpected honor. I looked at the list of previous winners -- many of them journalists who faced far more danger for their work -- and really felt out of my league. I'll look forward to visiting Stanford later this year. @StanfordSAPARC
@KeithZhai Ben Lim was such a kind,

Xi Jinping in Fujian in 1997. Looking tough toward Taiwan at tense moments, he learned long before he became China’s top leader, is essential for political survival in the ruling Communist Party. https://t.co/XN4DmVuOwd https://t.co/VrNOipSef7
Thousands of miles from the cities that Russia is bombing in Ukraine, China has been studying the war. Beijing sees a source of invaluable lessons on weapons, troop power, intelligence and deterrence that can help it prepare for potential wars of its own. https://t.co/1HGPCt254C
News Analysis: Xi Jinping’s Moscow trip was cast as a mission for peace in Ukraine, but his priority was bolstering Russia as a partner in countering the U.S., @ChuBailiang, our chief China correspondent, writes.
