Mike Bloomberg, in newly surfaced 2015 remarks, compares Putin's attack on Ukraine to US annexing California: "What would America do if we had a continuous country and a lot of people in that country wanted to be Americans. Does California ring a bell? We just went and took it."
Bloomberg then compares Russian aggression to U.S. military bases: "I'm not suggesting Putin's doing a good thing or it should be allowed. But we did this. That was 200 years ago, but we did it. And you want a warm water port? Guantanamo Bay ring a bell? We kept that."
Bloomberg believes NATO expansion gave Putin justification for aggression: "One of the reasons that Putin has reacted the way he did is there was a movement to have NATO be right along the Russian border... so they know this meant that the world was out to get them."

NEW: Trump is getting played by China on trade washingtonpost.com/opinions/globa… by me @PostOpinions
@PostOpinions "If the president strikes the deal on the terms being reported, he will actually be making a huge concession to Beijing that achieves few U.S. goals, and is so bad that even Trump will have trouble spinning it as a political win." washingtonpost.com/opinions/globa…
If Trump gets played now, the best and perhaps last opportunity to pressure Beijing to really change its bad economic behavior could be lost forever. washingtonpost.com/opinions/globa… @washingtonpost

So the official story is Navy Secretary Spencer was fired for secretly promising Trump to do exactly what Trump wanted? Does that make any sense at all?
So many problems with the official story, like why would Spencer get up at the Halifax Forum and announce he was not going to follow Trump's Tweet-order if he was secretly promising Trump to follow it? Why take such a public, self-righteous stance? Doesn't add up.
Also, we are supposed to believe Esper fired Spencer because Spencer was dealing directly with Trump? As if Esper can control who meets with Trump or would even try? Doesn't add up.

A thread about how well #China is playing the international game to become the most prominent economy in this decade, by @swardley.
@swardley Some key points about #China's long-run #strategy:

- For the #CPC (Communist Party of China) the #market is only a tool to leverage the power of the Chinese people, culture, and state, and not the holy sacred truth, as most western liberals believe. See @swardley's explanation.
@swardley - #China, through its CPC, acts as the #world's #biggest #buyer of goods & services, and hence, is able to impose its conditions (read law, prices, access to intellectual property, etc) to all multinationals that want to access the Chinese market, no matter how big they are.

In new report dropped yesterday aspi.org.au/report/mapping… I wrote abt how 🇨🇳 tech companies - Huawei, ByteDance/TikTok, Alibaba, even telecom companies - are aiding rights abuses in Xinjiang, and the policies that encouraged them to. See section: “All roads lead to Xinjiang”
And watch this 10 min documentary (disclaimer: I made it). Listen to the Uyghur people m.facebook.com/DatelineSBS/vi… (Sorry @adilawhy for using this pic again. It’s a really strong quote)

Father of “East Turkestan”: Russian Sinologist Nikita Yakovlevich Bichurin. He 1st invented the term “East Turkestan” to replace “Chinese Turkestan” in foreign language usage in 1829.

coincided w Russian conquest of Central Asia which led to establishment of Russian Turkestan
Since then, “East Turkestan” have been used interchangeably with “Chinese Turkistan” for #Xinjiang as a geographic term to mark it from ”West Turkestan” or “Russian Turkestan”

This brave #Uyghur #Muslim girl, still resides in #Xinjiang aka #EastTurkestan is indicating that four of her relatives are in #China's #ConcentrationCamps. She obviously wants the world to know regardless of what might happen to her, PLEASE SHARE for her sake.

#CloseTheCamps
Clip 2: There are more "witness testimonials" coming right out of #Xinjiang aka #EastTurkestan. They don’t saying anything but it's written all over their faces, clearly sending a message to the outside world that all is not good.

China’s censors have been expunging evidence of the country’s vast network of extrajudicial 're-education’ camps in #Xinjiang province from the internet just as fast as researchers have been finding it. aspi.org.au/index.php/repo…
From first-hand testimony to satellite imagery, researchers have now provided empirical data that authoritatively paints a picture of the extent of China’s biggest human rights abuse since the 1989 post-Tiananmen purge. aspi.org.au/index.php/repo…

2/Agree with @dtbyler about centrality of a #Uyghur voice, “Alim,” impressed w smart protection for him. Esp given his biodata gathered forcibly, detention in a “political education” camp, “release” but still flagged by surveillance technology even when supposedly “free.” @hrw
3/And “Alim’s” encounter w what was likely the IJOP. hrw.org/video-photos/i… @hrw @hrw_chinese
