Dear Members and Friends

Several of you have asked for more content on geo-political topics to enable you to make more sense of what is going on and what are the possible consequences of the current lamentable state of China-USA relations. There are those who think the Biden Administration’s China policy is a mess evidenced by Nancy Pelosi’s visit to Taiwan last week. There are others who believe China’s USA policy is far too aggressive and nationalistic.

We believe China’s and USA’s policies should be based on mature, peaceful and realistic co-existence: always China & USA rather than China V USA or, indeed, USA V China. Here is a typically thoughtful and insightful article written by your fellow member Hinrich Foundation designed to help our collective understanding of USA’s policy stance on China.

Wishing you a good week ahead.

Yours faithfully
Victor Mills
Chief Executive
