For three decades, I worked inside multinational projects across Eastern Europe, Africa, the Middle East, and Asia—often tied to the machinery of U.S. imperial power. What I saw convinced me: no “reform” can sanitize a system built on exploitation. 🧵
🚨NEW EPISODE OF GOING UNDERGROUND⚡️
Trump-Xi Summit: ‘China🇨🇳 is WINNING the Competition Against the USA🇺🇸’—Prof. Zhang Weiwei
How has China outsmarted the US's attempts to choke off Beijing's oil supplies via Iran & Venezuela?
How does Beijing view the Trump Administration as it unleashes death and destruction across the global south?
Why does China see itself as winning the competition against the United States?
All this and more on this episode of Going Underground with Prof. Zhang Weiwei, Director of Fudan University’s China Institute and former Translator for Chinese Paramount Leader Deng Xiaoping.
Putin to visit Beijing five days after Trump leaves. This is not a coincidence. This is geopolitics in real time.
Russia needs to know exactly what Xi and Trump discussed. Any shift in China’s position on trade, technology, sanctions, or Ukraine directly impacts Moscow’s strategic calculus.
Meanwhile, Beijing is doing something extraordinary - it is hosting the leaders of both Washington and Moscow within days of each other - not at a multilateral summit, but in Beijing, on Xi’s terms.
That is the real story.
This is not China being pulled between two powers. This is China demonstrating that it has become the indispensable center of the emerging multipolar world.
The West still does not understand what it is watching.
🗣 ‘We have made a fortune with their oil’ – Trump on Venezuela
US President Donald Trump said the US has been profiting from Venezuela's oil after the illegal kidnapping of Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro in early January.
💬 “I don't know how you can do better," Trump added, referring to the US-Israeli aggression against Iran.
Trump is a cult leader — one that will not be easily replaced. But that doesn't mean that the GOP will lose power once he is gone. There is the very real consideration that, in order to cling to the power Trump cultivated for them, we will see a much more nakedly fascist system take his place.
Trump is received by Xi with high pomp, low circumstance. CEOs fly home with no rare earth minerals. US lack of leverage laid bare on Taiwan, Iran.
After 5-day “decent interval”, Putin will arrive in Beijing for far more serious coordination on Iran, etc. https://t.co/MaewUHvCBi
🚨 Aims of US bio-research in Ukraine look like 'something out of horror movie'
Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard is investigating over 120 secret US biolabs across 30 countries, following years of Russian warnings.
🔸 The world does owe an apology to Russia for dismissing its concerns as conspiracy, former CIA analyst Larry Johnson tells Sputnik
🔸 The controversy surrounding US funding of overseas biolabs, including 40 in Ukraine, is "so deep and so dark, that it has to be exposed"
🔸 “It appears that the intent was to develop biological agents that would be specifically targeted at Slavic people, at Russia, for the specific task of destroying Russia”
Will any US policymakers be held accountable? The CIA veteran sees little chance of that.
In Cuba, the US regime plans to eliminate the living symbol of revolution and independence (Raul Castro), then promote traitors within the Cuban government to be colonial administrators.
Venezuela again. Here’s to hoping the Cuban people give them another Iran instead.
Complete and utter nonsense. If you knew anything about China, you would know that stability (稳定) means everything to Chinese people.
Throughout their 5,000 year history China was nothing but unstable (不稳定). Dynasties rose and fell for thousands of years until the current Chinese government came to power and established that stability for the nation.
You might not like that (we all know you hate it) but it doesn’t matter what you and I, both outsiders in China, think about the government. China is for Chinese people and their government is one of the most supported governments in the world, because it offers that stability.
You are simply a war monger and trying to push propaganda that China wants to take over the world and therefore is a threat to US interests. This is completely false and both nations needs each other and should be working with each other.
Grateful more people are waking up to this idea and walking away from the propaganda you and other US think tanks are promoting
US foreign policy is one big armed robbery.
The US stopped the genocide in Gaza for Chevron to take the gas in the Mediterranean (6 deals in 6 months), then attacked Venezuela, Russia, and Iran for their oil & gas — forcing the planet to rely on US energy, and boosting the $.
