Opinion | Understanding China's Approach to the Middle East, and contrasting it with the US On the contrary, China's position is Anti-hegemonic by nature of its refusal to engage in Middle East wars and insisting on reconciliation and diplomacy as the point of resolution. It holds its cards well; therefore, every player can engage with Beijing without sensitive lines being crossed, and thus China stands as a voice of reason: friends to all, enemies to none.

Opinion | Another Trump Drama Cycle comes to an end with dramatic effect Last week, social media was rife with the proclamation that "World War 3" was coming. Although such an outcome was always ludicrous and bordering on hysteria, given that Iran has no capabilities of doing so, the growing conflict between Tehran and Israel was nonetheless unnerving. Global energy prices were being pushed up, flights from critical airlines such as Qatar and Emirates were being cancelled, and of course, Donald Trump then jumped in himself by bombing Iran's nuclear facilities, creating a rupture in his fan base.

Opinion | China provides options for Pacific Island Nations: The west doesn't like this? Yesterday, New Zealand announced that it had suspended £8 million in aid to the Cook Islands in retaliation for its sovereign decision of signing a partnership with China. The decision came even as Wellington's Premier Minister, Christopher Luxon, is set to visit Beijing, demonstrating an unusual inconsistency in New Zealand seeking a robustly lucrative relationship with Beijing but denying smaller countries the small thing.

Opinion | Geopolitically cornered, Iran has few good options left After the past few days Israel has dramatically increased its bombing of Iranian infrastructure and targeted assassinations of key officials in Tehran. Backed by the United States, Donald Trump has repeatedly suggested US forces could also become involved, but has so far refrained from doing so, seeking to leverage his threats as a negotiating hand to try and force Tehran to submit to a new deal that in his own words, described as "unconditional surrender."

Opinion | When Israel is under pressure, it plays the Iran Card Facing domestic pressure and international isolation over Gaza, Israeli PM Netanyahu ordered strikes on Iran's nuclear program, reportedly killing key officials. Analysts suggest Netanyahu aims to provoke Iranian retaliation, rallying domestic support and forcing Western backing. Iran, already geopolitically cornered by sanctions, Hezbollah's weakening, and stalled US talks, faces a critical choice. Direct retaliation may be symbolic but ineffective, while inaction risks appearing weak. This escalation significantly heightens Middle East tensions and the risk of war.

Opinion | China is playing hardball, and it's paying off In retaliation for Donald Trump's trade war campaign, targeting China more aggressively than the rest of the world, Beijing has responded by imposing an embargo on the export of rare earths on an almost blanket scale. These materials, which China has a market monopoly on, are critical to the functioning of supply chains around the world, ranging from automobiles to washing machines. The withholding of such minerals has immediately brought some industries to a complete halt, with Suzuki Motors in Japan being forced to suspend production.
