  • Sue Mi Terry
    Sue Mi Terry “Now is not the time to lift sanctions, either. Now, in fact, is the time to double down. If Biden wants to prevent North Korea from acting out, he needs to first provide the government with new incentives to talk-and that means new restrictions Washington can use as carrots. Biden, in other words, needs to take North Korean policy off autopilot and launch a proactive effort to deter Pyongyang. Otherwise, he risks encouraging an already emboldened Kim to stage a major provocation.” 9 hours ago
  • Christopher Cavoli
    Christopher Cavoli “Russians don't have the numbers necessary to do a strategic breakthrough. More to the point, they don't have the skill and capability to do it, to operate at the scale necessary to exploit any breakthrough to strategic advantage. They do have the ability to make local advances and they have done some of that.” 10 hours ago

“Even before we saw the sentencing, looking back at how the whole situation was handled … We can see that the government already intended to create a chilling effect on citizens that they should be afraid of the regime.”

“The economy will always be the priority for the CCP [Chinese Communist Party], and Hong Kong is capable of attracting foreign investment. Besides, the city is still where CCP bigwigs own properties and launder money.”

“Previously, the five-year plans highlighted enhancing Hong Kong's influence in global development, and consolidating financial and trade roles. However, the deteriorating political environment and chaotic social environment, which bred outside interference, pose a substantial threat to the city's future. After having been through social turmoil that left scars on their hearts, the young generation's ideology and awareness determine the city's future.”

“I believe that in the future, you could just change the name of the Hong Kong national security law, and substitute instead 'Taiwan national security law'.”

“I am confident that after the implementation of the national security law, the social unrest which has troubled Hong Kong people for nearly a year will be eased and stability will be restored, thereby enabling Hong Kong to start anew, focus on economic development and improve people's livelihood”

“When the national security law is approaching with the People’s Liberation Army demonstrating a sniper ‘decapitation’, it is no longer nonsense to worry about life and safety in engaging democratic resistance in Hong Kong.”

“Hong Kong’s financial position cannot easily be replaced, and the central government does not intend to replace it. But it cannot allow the violence to continue any more. If the 'die together' strategy by Hong Kong’s opposition forces continues, the damage will be greater than the damage that the US can do by cancelling its special trade status for Hong Kong.”

“Since the turbulence last year, many in China had argued that removing Hong Kong’s status will turn it into just another Chinese city, as it should be, and all the international attention, outcry, support for the Hong Kong demonstrations, using the special trading status as leverage to hold Beijing hostage, will gradually come to a stop, as they should. There will be economic impact, but that impact will be shared by everybody, including the US and Hong Kong. The mainland still has the Greater Bay Area development plan, but Hong Kong will have little left.”

“The NPCSC’s decision to make the law only targets four types of acts that threaten national security … and criminals who do these. In other words, it protects the majority of law-abiding and peace-loving Hong Kong residents. Many countries around the world, including Western democracies, have such laws, and those laws do not scare away investors. Why would such negative consequences happen in Hong Kong, a special administrative region and an inseparable territory under the People’s Republic of China?”

“In the past, the central government took into account the views of Western countries when it handled Hong Kong affairs, but now Beijing believes Western countries are using Hong Kong to undermine China’s national security. When it comes to Hong Kong affairs, safeguarding national security and asserting its authority over Hong Kong have now taken precedence over Hong Kong’s contribution to China’s economy.”

“The issues of Taiwan and Hong Kong are absolutely critical to most of the Chinese population in terms of how they judge whether or not the (Party is) doing its job.”
