👏🏼 🇺🇸 I already saw a couple of bot/little pink accounts whining about “pollution”. Zero tweets from them, on China dominating and weaponising rare earth minerals for years now!
The U.S. is opening its first Rare Earth mine in over 70 years, supplying six of the seventeen Rare Earth elements.
It was wonderful speaking to @The_China_Chap for the @AsianConfluence on China’s monopoly over rare earth minerals and how potent a tool it is. Full podcast coming soon.
Looking forward to speaking tomorrow on 'China and the rise of cognitive warfare', at the online panel discussion organised by the @futureshiftlabs, and to be moderated by @sagarvishnoi.
And it’s here! The hard copy of the book has a different feeling altogether! In “Fentanyl: From the Lab to the Streets”, edited by Jonathan D. Rosen and @scutronacastro; and published by Routledge, I wrote a chapter on ‘Understanding the Illicit Flows of Fentanyl from China to…
His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama, is the greatest global statesperson of the modern era. He has millions of genuine enthusiastic followers spread across the world, who admire him, cherish him and worship him. It was an absolute honour to be part of the celebrations of the 90th…
In this article for the @ChintanResearch, @Kusuma_Kotha, and I write about India's role in the "China Plus One" strategy, where global companies seek to diversify their supply chains beyond China to mitigate risks. We highlight India's strengths, including its vast domestic…
In this article for @firstpost, Sagar Naidu and I write about why the parallels between the 1950s and now must be carefully studied by India. China’s overtures to push narratives of friendship with India to counter the West, its military onslaught on Tibet then, its attempts to…
European should stop lecturing about *privacy* when they openly hand over their citizens data this freely to CCP.
In this article for the @UsanasF, @PreetiKhenta and I write on how after the Dalai Lama’s 90th birthday, the battle lines between India and China are even more clearly drawn. If the next Dalai Lama is born in India, then New Delhi should expect even more heightened aggression…

HUGE. French intel confirms: China ran a covert op to discredit Rafale jets after India’s 'Operation Sindoor' 😳 🔸 Used its EMBASSIES to push doubts on Rafale performance. 🔸 Promoted Chinese jets as “Better Alternative.” Now pause and recall - Why was Congress questioning…

First the Quad, and now the BRICS! SCO stands out as the aberration. Point to note, Xi isn’t attending the BRICS, and China isn’t (obviously) a member of the Quad! 🇮🇳 = 2 🇨🇳 = 0 Terroristan = never mind!
Just in: BRICS condemns 'military strikes' against Iran; express 'serious concern' over 'deliberate attacks on civilian infrastructure and peaceful nuclear facilities'
Why is conflict a permanent feature of the India-China bilateral relationship? Beyond the realm of military conflict, the bilateral, unfortunately spans illiberal economics, culture, water, terrorism among a long list of other thorny issues. I speak to @kanpuriya_viralalfaaz on…
China’s farce as a “responsible actor” in international relations gets recognised in the easiest possible ways by it’s support for Pakistan sponsored terrorism against India. The support ranges from clandestine support to direct support. The myriad formats of the support need to…
This is BIG! "India’s Defence Minister Rajnath Singh has on Jun 26 told his Chinese counterpart Admiral Dong Jun that the two countries should seek a “permanent solution” to their decades-old Tibet-border dispute". While some Indian journalists and academics want to obliterate…
And yet, there will be zero consequences for CCP controlled China! That is the bigger problem.
