[Pope Leo XIV @Pontifex]

The New START Treaty, which represented a significant step to limit the proliferation of nuclear weapons, expires tomorrow. I make an urgent appeal not to allow this instrument to lapse without seeking to ensure a concrete and effective follow-up. The current situation demands that everything possible be done to avert a new arms race. We must urgently replace the logic of fear and distrust with a shared ethic that can guide choices on behalf of the common good and make peace a heritage safeguarded by all.

Now that the Pentagon has just released the 2025 China Military Power Report (#CMPR)… you can access the Full Text & accompanying documents below. Since I couldn’t find a single-source location on the Internet, & the Pentagon has deactivated some of the previous links, I decided to make my own. Now you can download cached PDFs of all 25 CMPRs published to date directly by year!

Compare today’s content with ALL previous editions back to 2000, together with accompanying rollouts & analysis.

As someone who’s been working hard to follow China’s meteoric military rise throughout this past quarter century, I’d summarize it as follows: It’s been a full-time job to keep up!

Hope this compilation can make your own keeping up, or following up, at least a little bit easier—& stay tuned for the next major developments sure to follow soon…

Perhaps we could start with fact: US yet to ratify #UNCLOS ?
Then, could we reach next question: How this former US navy officer idea will impact rule-base-order in region?
Indonesia comply with UNCLOS by designed ASL which, according to author, need to be challenged..

Meski sejumlah negara sengaja memilih praktik demokrasi, bayang-bayang gelap otoritarianisme tak kunjung lenyap. Bahkan sebaliknya, perlahan menguat. Tunisia dan Uganda kini menjadi contoh menguatnya otoritarianisme di Afrika. Pemerintahan di kedua negara itu membungkam oposisi serta perbedaan pendapat.

Bagaimana bisa negara seolah antikritik lewat penangkapan sejumlah aktivis?

Yuk kita #TanyaWartawanKompas Kris Mada (@krismada) dan baca liputannya di https://t.co/KZ58AEx3Xf dengan judul "Otoritarianisme Semakin Mencekik Tunisia dan Uganda".
