Chinese MOD spox Tan Kefei Wed responds to reports alleging 🇨🇳 ignoring @DeptofDefense request for talks:

China attaches importance to the development of 🇨🇳🇺🇸 military relations & the development of communication at all levels, in fact, mil-to-mil contacts are not severed./1
I want to emphasize that dialogue cannot be without principles, and communication cannot be without the bottom line. The U.S. side bears full responsibility for the current difficulties of mil-to-mil exchanges. /2
On the one hand, the U.S. side claims to seek more communication, but on the other hand, it disregards China's concerns, arbitrarily creates obstacles, and seriously undermines mutual trust between the two militaries. This is not the right attitude in pursuing communication. /3

Didn't visit the #Shanghai #Autoshow, but here is a list of takeaways somebody wrote that's circulating on social media and getting a lot of nods.
I'll briefly translate.
1. EV are the future, the days of combustion engine vehicles are numbered. Image
2. Brand value of luxury brands such as #Benz and #BMW is the saving grace of combust engine vehicles
3. #Audi is lagging behind Benz and BMW, the conventional acronym of the big 3 lux brands of "BBA" is now "BB"
4. After 3 years of Covid, the latest development of Chinese EVs has shocked many foreign brands
5. Many foreigners are watching domestic brand cars with anxiety on their face
6. Japanese, Korean and French brands have little future in the Chinese market

Just wrapped up a trip to Shenzhen to see how their tech companies are faring against the backdrop of the great tech decoupling. The companies we visited differed in field, size, and temperament, but some common traits were worth sharing.
1. The pressure of U.S. sanctions is acutely felt across industries. Foreign markets were forced to give up, access to hardware was lost, and many are bracing for more extreme measures as they expect the situation to further deteriorate. /2
2. Many lamented the decoupling as mutually harmful, saying they used to have sizable investments in the U.S. that generated good-paying jobs. "Practically every tech company has set up a lab in CA", someone told me, but the investment has all but evaporated. /3
