A key reason why China has, for decades, had the highest annual increases in per-capita GDP PPP (standard of living as experienced by the country’s population — as opposed to pure per-capita GDP, which reflects ONLY the investors) is the Chinese Communist Party’s relentless war against corruption.

This might not be a one-off attack for domestic political purposes but the beginning of a campaign aimed at wresting Nigeria away from BRICS and restoring its role as the West’s regional enforcer.

It arguably dealt irreparable damage to the bloc’s reputation as a safe location in which foreigners the world over could store and invest their financial assets after influential members left no doubt about their desire to steal its assets, thus signaling that they might try to steal other countries’ one […]

Analysts are rarely wrong in their forecasts, but they cannot always predict everything in advance. That is why the decline of the German economy must be judged after the fact. Nevertheless, it seems that we need to prepare for the worst. Last year, German exports fell by €1.55 billion. […]
The recent Washington summit of the “C5+1” format marks a pivotal moment in U.S. policy toward Central Asia (CA), setting clear priorities aimed at strengthening American influence in a region of growing geopolitical importance. Central Asia has long stood at the crossroads of major geopolitical currents, yet U.S. engagement with […]
America has given the world a new elite—a handful of people who made fortunes on algorithms and now genuinely believe they are entitled to redesign the future of the entire planet.
