Opinion | China derisked, America weaponized the dollar
De-dollarization is not a slogan and it is not an overnight collapse. The dollar still has enormous inertia. Oil contracts, trade invoicing, deep Treasury markets, and decades of accounting habit do not vanish in a year. BRICS is not a magic replacement switch. What is changing is the direction of travel. More local-currency settlement. More yuan lines. More gold in official vaults. Less willingness among surplus nations to keep absorbing Washington's deficits as a civic duty.

Opinion | Tugendhat's appointment a retrograde step for UK-China relations
When the United Kingdom's Conservative Party leader, Kemi Badenoch, reshuffled her shadow Cabinet on Monday, she appointed Tom Tugendhat as her shadow foreign secretary (replacing Dame Priti Patel). The former security minister had earlier signaled his appointment from Taiwan, where he was on his second visit of the year. According to The Daily Telegraph, he was in Taipei "meeting officials about the threat posed by China".

Opinion | Is Carney's Canada Trump's deserved nemesis?
With 72% of Canadian eggs in the American basket, Trump believes he has Canada over a barrel. Signing an agreement with Trump the bad faith actor, is meaningless, as all his contracts are "written in pencil", erasable on a whim. Suddenly, Canada finds itself in the global spotlight. Many tariff-tired countries hail Canada as a world hero for standing up to a gangster. Thank God Carney is at the wheel, and not pretty face juvenile Justin Trudeau. Carney, for a change, refuses to grovel and butter up a brainfart bully.

Opinion | The Trump doctrine of 'Economic domination'
As reported by Reuters last week: "President Donald Trump… announced an unprecedented U.S. push to take control of a fifth of Venezuela's vast oil reserves, betting that American companies can revive the OPEC nation's battered energy industry while delivering a new source of crude to help bring down U.S. fuel prices."

Opinion | They did not come to rebuild Venezuela, they came for the barrels China was buying
The signature was the steal. Washington needed the oil without setting the country on fire, so it kept the official who already held the ministries and the guns and put 17 fields and 65 billion barrels under majority U.S. operational control for 25 years. The exile with the medal was never going to deliver that paper. On television they talk about sovereignty and historic benefits. The scraps that leaked say Caracas keeps about $19 a barrel. The contract itself is still in a drawer. That is the politics. The oil is slower than the speech. The cash trail is worse.

Opinion | Hong Kong visitor arrivals confound Five Eyes fallacies
When the Hong Kong SAR National Security Law was enacted by the National People's Congress Standing Committee in 2020, the Five Eyes partners reacted with fury. Although the law was designed to save the "one country, two systems" policy after an insurrection that sought its destruction, the Five Eyes vented their anger on the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region. As the black-clad violence had failed to wreck the city and undermine China, they decided to try other means of achieving those objectives.

Opinion | HK retains crown as Asia's most international city: Policy, data, and widening lead
In an era of intensifying regional competition and geopolitical realignment, Hong Kong has once again demonstrated that institutional depth, policy coherence, and market openness are not easily replicated. The Asian Cities Internationality Index 2026 (ACII 2026), commissioned by the Hong Kong General Chamber of Commerce (HKGCC) and independently conducted by Ipsos, ranks Hong Kong first among 11 Asian cities with an overall score of 74.6 out of 100, widening its lead over second-placed Singapore (72.6) from a razor-thin 0.2 points in 2025 to a decisive 2.0 points this year.
