The US should emulate China’s behavior on Africa.

On Thursday, President Trump and President Xi spoke on the phone on topics such as trade and North Korea, indicating positive momentum towards a possible upcoming meeting between the two leaders at the G20. President Trump tweeted later that he'd had "a long and very good conversation with President Xi. . .discussions are moving along nicely," while the Chinese readout of the call reported that President Xi noted successful precedents for resolving economic and trade disputes between the two countries and pointed to next week's Shanghai import expo as evidence of China's opening up process. Bloomberg reported on Friday that President Trump may have asked key U.S. officials to begin drafting potential terms for a deal to halt mounting economic friction with China.

As Chinese stock exchanges struggle, their poor performance is a reflection of greater problems for the world’s second largest economy.

Amid a contentious economic environment, China should avoid its typical reforms and responses in favor of structural adjustments that can attack the problem rather than its symptoms.

While much attention has focused on Chinese efforts to make economic in-roads on land, observers may have missed the country’s expansion to the north, along the Polar Silk Road.

The U.S. must stop unfairly blaming China.

In launching a trade war against China, America is rejecting openness.

Whatever costs the US incurs from trade with China are vastly outweighed by the benefits. If Trump wants to sacrifice those benefits in a trade war, so much the better for China.

Since Duterte took office, China and the Philippines are cooperating well.

The US needs to stop attacking China.
