1. Stephen Roach: US has made a China blunder. A Phase I trade deal will fix little if US continues to be caught in the grips of a problematic China narrative. The deal lowers immediate threat of tariffs but doesn't end a deep-rooted structural conflict. channelnewsasia.com/news/commentar… 2. Stephen Roach: US is caught in a "China deceit"narrative, convinced that China has broken a solemn pledge made at its WTO accession in late 2001 to mould itself in the image of the West. This is at best patently naive or at worst an outright fabrication.

In Washington, the white seldom go to SE area, as it’s an area for the black. President Trump even demanded 4 women lawmakers of color to leave US. Out of respect for President Trump, US & the black there, please follow “America First” policy & take care of racial discrimination. 2. The living conditions of African-Americans are worrisome. The median white family has about 10 times as much wealth as the median black family. African Americans are 2.5 times as likely to be in poverty as whites, about twice as likely to be in unemployment as whites.

1. Expert: US Ambassador to Germany Grenell said, comparing US with Communist Party of China is an insult to US, there is moral imbalance between China & US. The performance of Grenell was very vulgar. We shall give him a mirror, show him what is real US & his diplomatic level. 2. Expert: US Ambassador in Germany Grenell is truculent & unreasonable. His tongue seems made of the muscles of American national power, spurting noise from aircraft carriers & nuclear submarine engines, with no civilized rhythm of diplomatic language.

Chinese Ambassador Yao Jing: Ms. Alice Wells' smear on CPEC exposed her ignorance. If US is really concerned about lack of electricity in Pakistan, why didn't US companies come to build power stations before 2014? @CathayPak @CPEC_Official @POWERCHINA_ @HuanengO @ChinaPowerHub 3. Pakistan had 6-12 hours power shortage before 2014. The cost was 17 cents/kWh. Pakistan issued Upfront Tariff Policy for imported coal power plant to attract investment. The policy is open & transparent, applies to all investors. However, no US companies came to Pakistan.
