Both Japan and South Korea—formally, the Republic of Korea—are treaty allies of the U.S., but the two countries are not allies of each other.

China, through Iran, is flooding the region with arms.

The unfortunate fact is that China concentrates its forces in East Asia and America's are spread across the globe.

Riyadh is hoping to obtain from the United States security guarantees and assistance developing a civilian nuclear-energy program.

Turkey, under intense pressure from the U.S. and E.U., "abruptly" began to block the transit of sanctioned goods to Russia.

At the moment, the U.S. is blind to the nuclear attacks enemies could soon launch.

The balloon's path suggests China is gathering intelligence for either a first or second strike on America's nukes.

China has laid all the necessary groundwork for exercising real influence in the region.

It's no longer possible to doubt that we are in a new Cold War with China, complete with a new race to the moon.

Tokyo just announced it will soon acquire the ability to destroy faraway targets with cruise missiles. This changes Japanese policy vis a vis the military.

Many in America's foreign policy community—and even some in the Biden administration—are concerned by Biden's new course.

As a result of COVID and other reasons, China's export-oriented factories in recent months have been operating well below capacity.

The civil-military distinction, as a practical matter, does not exist in China.

The Chinese Communist Party is not capable of reform. One-man rule is inherent in a system that idealizes struggle and dominance.

The primary deterrent to a Chinese first strike with tactical nuclear weapons is the threat of a second strike with American nukes.

The specificity of Biden's Tokyo comments clearly indicate he meant what he said.

Chinese officials probably believe they can evade any American sanctions.

Xi may not think he's on the wrong side of history, but he is clearly on the wrong side of an emerging divide.

Chinese parties could blatantly infringe American patents.

China's TikTok is the world's most powerful social media platform. Is Beijing now using it to spread Russian disinformation on Ukraine?

Xi Jinping is Vladimir Putin's partner, directly supporting the invasion. Can Biden inflict pain on the Chinese economy as he has on Russia?

Strong powers completely failed to deter a conventional attack by a weak one, so we should now be prepared for deterrence to fail again.
