The Guardian view on China′s carrots and sticks: Trump should not soften on Taiwan when he visits Beijing | Editorial (The Guardian)
|
|
|
Xi Jinping hopes that the president may water down US support for a vibrant democracy. Defending the status quo would be better for America tooChina senses opportunity when Donald Trump visits later this month. A nakedly transactional US president in need of a trade deal, and hoping that Beijing could lean on Iran, might shift on Taiwan in return. China's foreign minister, Wang Yi, linked the issue explicitly to broader bilateral cooperation in his call with Marco Rubio, the US secretary of state, on Thursday. Beijing would be delighted to see Mr Trump soften the US position, and perhaps pull back on arms sales after a mammoth $11bn package was announced late last year.Taiwan has been self-governed since the end of China's civil war in 1949, so never ruled by China's Communist party. Xi Jinping has made unification central to his legacy. Three years ago, US intelligence assessed that he had told the People's Liberation Army to be ready for an invasion by 2027. But Beijing would surely prefer to achiev...

From footwear to AI services: China moves up the value chain in exports (SCMP)
|
|
|
For decades, the global image of Chinese trade was synonymous with massive container ships loaded with footwear, bags and furniture. However, a profound structural shift is under way.
Having conquered the world of physical goods, China is now rapidly ascending the industrial chain as an emerging exporter of manufacturing technology.
In 2025, the country's exports of telecoms, computer and information services reached 808 billion yuan (US$118 billion), marking a robust 13 per cent year-on-year......

World may find itself ′in a very Chinese time′ of data governance (SCMP)
|
|
|
At the end of March, China inaugurated the World Data Organisation in Beijing, a body with a stated mission of “bridging the data divide, unlocking data's value and powering the digital economy”.
The move is the latest signal of a broader trend: over the past several years, Beijing has developed a distinct data governance strategy to drive artificial intelligence (AI) development as it reshapes the terms of technological competition.
Since late 2025, Beijing has pursued an aggressive AI adoption......

From phones to robots: China′s supply chain eyes next growth curve in humanoid (SCMP)
|
|
|
China's smartphone and electronics supply chain is adapting its expertise to support the country's fledgling but fast-growing humanoid robotics industry, as component suppliers seek new growth beyond a slowing mobile market.
The sector received a glimpse of that crossover after Honor's humanoid robot D1, a dark-horse entrant from the smartphone maker, won Beijing's recent robot half-marathon, beating established Chinese robotics names such as Unitree.
Honor entered the humanoid robotics sector......

The U.S. Wants To Ban Chinese Cars, But They're Already At The Gate
Efforts in Washington to block Chinese-made cars often sound like a future problem - but in practice, those vehicles are already within reach of American consumers, according to the Wall Street Journal.
Just south of the U.S. border, Chinese automakers have been rapidly expanding in Mexico, setting up dealerships and offering vehicles at prices far below what most new cars cost in the U.S. Brands like BYD, Geely, and Great Wall Motor are selling electric and gas-powered models packed with features - often for the price of a used car in the U.S. That proximity matters: American consumers living near the border can easily see, test, and in some cases drive these vehicles, even if large-scale imports remain restricted.
Meanwhile, U.S. policymakers are moving in the opposite direction. Proposed tariffs, import restrictions, and national security reviews are all aimed at limiting Chinese auto penetration, especially in the electri...

Ahead Of Trump-Xi Summit, Beijing Tells Chinese Firms To Ignore U.S. Sanctions On "Teapot" Refineries
President Donald Trump is set to travel to Beijing in mid-May for a summit with Chinese President Xi Jinping, the first U.S. presidential visit to China in eight years, and a meeting already delayed once by the Iran war.
The pair will obviously discuss the U.S.-Iran conflict and the resulting energy shock, which has hit Asia fastest and hardest. There is no shortage of issues for the two leaders to discuss, including Taiwan, trade, AI chip controls, rare earths, and sanctions.
One important topic the two leaders will likely spend time on is the energy shock and the maximum pressure campaign imposed by the U.S. Treasury Department's Office of Foreign Assets Control on Chinese independent "teapot" refineries, particularly in Shandong Province, due to their continued purchases and refining of Iranian crude.
Perhaps last week's sanctions on China's teapot refiners are part o...
