Rajaratnam School of International Studies - Oct 30, 2018 - Though it might be simple for China to wait out the Trump presidency in order to make a new trade deal with a new president, it would not be in its best interest to do so. From reforming issues like state-subsidies, intellectual property and legal reciprocity to strengthening the relationship between China and the U.S., it is evident that waiting carries more risk than opportunities.

- Fu Xiaoqiang, Vice President, China Institutes of Contemporary International Relations - May 26, 2014 - Fu Xiaoqiang explains that terrorist groups in China now pose a more acute risk as their network and capacity has expanded. Rather then inadvertently encouraging separatist and extremist groups in China, and being swayed by power politics, the United States should leverage common security goals and collaborate with China in fighting global terrorism. 
- Dan Steinbock, Founder, Difference Group - Apr 25, 2013 - The concern over terrorism is the least common denominator among advanced and emerging economies.
