Recent Philippine presidents have flip-flopped on their stance toward China, alternately saying they will stand up to China and that they will befriend China.

Seven democratic powers invited India and South Africa to this week’s G-7 summit. The move sought to strengthen the West’s front against China and Russia, but the result may not be so clear-cut. One G-7 member nation in particular remains deeply involved in China’s Belt and Road Initiative. For now, its next move remains to be seen.

However the timing of this campaign is suspicious. In another episode of General Hostilities, we look at the likely reason for the hard fist campaign, who it might be targeting, and why it’s happening now.

The city of Hong Kong is no longer recognizable. That’s what a number of locals had to say amid the anniversary of its handover from Britain to Beijing.

The CCP found a way to prevent some would-be protesters from joining the protest and dealt with the others who did manage to show up. NATO could move to the Pacific to counter China’s growing threat. And Xi Jinping makes his first trip in years (spoiler: he doesn’t go very far). Watch this episode of China Uncensored for that and more of this week’s China News headlines.

Seven world powers are looking to counter China with a new project and hundred-billion dollars in funding. It’s designed as an answer to China’s Belt and Road Initiative. We take a closer look at why some call Beijing’s Belt and Road Initiative a form of “debt-trap diplomacy.” Chinese state media outlets are publishing reports on the Belt and Road Initiative’s growth.
