The data shows an almost cliff-like drop in China’s exports worldwide. Exports to the United States dropped 24%, to Europe 13%, to the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) 17%, to Japan 16%, to South Korea 20%, to India 14%, and to Brazil 4%. The only exception was China’s exports to Russia, which surged by 90%. However, given Russia’s economy is smaller than China’s Guangdong province, even this export boom to Russia could not make up for China’s plummet in global trade.China’s foreign trade is teetering on the brink of collapse. As we delve into the specific data and facts in the analysis that follows, it will reveal the severity of this issue. The reality we must face is that China’s exports are no longer the spectacle they once were.#export #chinaeconomy #chinaobserver

In a landmark decision that underscores growing military cooperation between Washington and Manila, the U.S. Congress has officially approved the transfer of a retired U.S. Navy cruiser to the Philippines, marking one of the most significant defense upgrades in Philippine naval history. This move comes amid rising tensions in the South China Sea, where the Philippines faces increasing pressure from China’s expanding maritime presence.The cruiser, expected to be refitted and equipped with advanced radar, missile systems, and modern communications technology, will dramatically enhance the Philippine Navy’s ability to patrol and defend its waters. Military analysts note that this transfer symbolizes a deepening U.S.-Philippine alliance, reflecting Washington’s strategy to fortify its regional partners as part of a broader Indo-Pacific security framework.While the move has been celebrated in Manila as a “historic step toward modernization,” Beijing has sharply criticized the decision, warning that it could destabilize regional peace and escalate naval competition. The Philippines, however, insists that the upgrade is purely defensive, aimed at protecting its sovereign maritime territory and ensuring stability across vital sea lanes.This development represents more than a simple arms transfer—it signals a renewed era of strategic partnership, reinforcing the Philippines’ position as a key maritime player and frontline ally in the U.S.-led regional security network.#USPhilippinesAlliance #WarshipTransfer #SouthChinaSea #DefenseUpgrade #USNavy #PhilippineNavy #Geopolitics #IndoPacific #ChinaTensions #MaritimeSecurity #MilitaryNews #GlobalDefense #StrategicPartnership #BreakingNews #NavalPower

In our wide-ranging interview with Rep. Neal Dunn, we cover China’s biowarfare program, illicit organ trade, President Trump’s new trade deal with Xi Jinping, how America can accelerate rare earth mineral production, and the strategic significance of Pacific island nations like the Solomon Islands. As a member of the House Select Committee on the Strategic Competition between the US and the CCP—often referred to as the House CCP Select Committee—he receives intelligence briefings on the multifaceted threats that Beijing poses to American national security. “They’re gathering biological data on all of us,” he says. “One of the most insidious ways they gather biological DNA sequencing on us is they run a set of blood banks in the United States.”He is also working to end American transplant tourism to China. “We don’t want Americans to participate in any way, shape, or form in this kind of organ harvesting and transplantation scheme. … You can actually sit in America, make an appointment for a heart, lung transplant in China right now,” says Congressman Neal Dunn (R-Florida), a former Army surgeon and founding president of the Advanced Urology Institute in Florida. “I want to make that illegal,” Rep. Dunn says. As a starting point, he has introduced the Block Organ Transplant Purchases from China Act, also known as the BLOCK Act, which would prohibit federal reimbursement for organ transplants and related medical services if the origins of the organs cannot be verified, as is the case in co

U.S. Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth visited Vietnam on Sunday, reaffirming a partnership rooted in healing the wounds of the Vietnam War while exploring deeper defence cooperation. The visit marks 30 years of diplomatic relations and two years since the two nations elevated ties to a Comprehensive Strategic Partnership. Hegseth emphasized that addressing the legacies of the war—unexploded ordnance, Agent Orange cleanup, and recovery of missing soldiers—remains central to U.S.-Vietnam relations. Analysts say these humanitarian efforts provide essential political cover for Hanoi to expand defence cooperation with Washington, even as Vietnam maintains ties with Russia and North Korea. Amid regional uncertainty and U.S. funding fluctuations, the renewed commitment to post-war projects highlights Washington’s intent to strengthen trust and demonstrate long-term responsibility in Southeast Asia#USDiplomacy #Vietnam #PeteHegseth #USVietnamRelations #Defense #IndoPacific #AgentOrange #WarLegacy #Hanoi #WorldNews

Their talks in Busan on the sidelines of the 2025 Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) Summit followed a similarly productive meeting with South Korean President Lee Jae Myung, as well as an amicable first encounter with Takaichi Sanae, Japan’s new conservative prime minister. Did Trump or Xi achieve more in South Korea? And what could the blossoming Trump-Takaichi friendship mean for Taiwan? In this episode, we analyze the new Trump-Xi trade deal, the state of US-Japan and US-China relations, and other recent geopolitical developments in the Indo-Pacific region.

What if the most potent weapon that America has against the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) isn’t nukes or tariffs?“This isn’t a competition between the largest economy and the second largest economy. This is a competition of ideals—and we’ve got the better ones,” says former Ambassador-at-Large for International Religious Freedom Sam Brownback.“If you want to hit them where it hurts, hit them on human rights issues, genocides in their own country, religious freedom that they don’t grant any of their people—whether they be Buddhist, Muslim, Falun Gong, Christians. That’s where they’re the weakest. It’s where they’re the most vulnerable.”Ahead of President Donald Trump’s expected meeting with Chinese leader Xi Jinping, I sat down with Brownback to understand what he sees as the Chinese regime’s greatest vulnerabilities, its deepest fears, and how those can be strategically leveraged by the United States.Brownback is co-chair of the International Religious Freedom Summit. He previously served as governor of Kansas from 2011 to 2018 and as a U.S. senator from Kansas, 1996 to 2011. His upcoming book is titled, “China’s War on Faith.”Vi

Two centuries ago, the richest man on Earth was a Chinese merchant who made his fortune through international trade. Not linked to an emperor or a warlord, Wu Bingjian, known to the West as Howqua, built his wealth through integrity and vision. During the Qing dynasty’s first encounters with Western powers, Wu amassed great fortune and established China’s first multinational conglomerate. When a trade war erupted between China and the West, Wu twice helped rescue the Qing government and shaped the outcome of China’s first trade war. From the Canton trading system to the Opium conflict, his story still echoes in today’s U.S.–China tensions and trade wars.

John Moolenaar (R-Mich.) has been spearheading efforts in Congress to combat the threat posed by the Chinese regime to American interests—from economic warfare to espionage and infiltration—as chairman of the House Select Committee on the Chinese Communist Party.“With rare earths, China is basically firing a loaded gun … on our economy,” he says.He’s pushing a bill that would phase in a 100 percent tariff on all strategic goods from China. The tariff would not just penalize China but also incentivize “other countries, as well as the United States, to invest in this almost as if it’s a Defense Production Act activity.”Beyond rare earth minerals, what leverage does the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) have exactly in trade talks with the United States? What will the CCP’s strategy be? How should President Donald Trump respond to the CCP’s coercive tactics and its recent attempts to gain additional leverage?And what can America do to extricate itself from its dependence on China for some of its most critical manufacturing technologies?Moolenaar points out that the CCP is using its leverage not only over trade but also over Chinese nationals studying or working in America via its extensive United Front operations.“Under their recent national security laws, any Chinese national who doesn’t carry out the will of the Chinese Communist Party, no matter where they are in the world, on U.S. soil or somewhere else in the world, [is] in violation of national security laws,” Moolenaar says.On the other hand, is the position of the CCP really secure? And what about Chinese leader Xi Jinping’s position in particular? What signs of dissatisfaction and unrest are there among the Chinese population?Views expressed in this video are opinions of the host and the guest, and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.
