German foreign minister postpones China trip amid tensions
German Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul has postponed his planned visit to China after Beijing confirmed only one substantive meeting.
The Economist, a magazine that's been predicting China's collapse for 30 years and was still calling "Peak China" a few months ago, now say that China is now "on top" and changing the world.

Good grief - the anti China lobby in the UK is so incompetent their left hand doesn't know what their right hand is doing - turns out those "Chinese spies" who were acquitted, because they were the opposite, ie trying to do regime change in China (not very successfully LOL).
# **Fridayeveryday**
BREAKING NEWS: A leaked document today reveals that the notorious “spies for China” in the UK were actually the opposite.
They were a pair of British men working to hurt China with disinformation, and trigger “regime collapse”.
The sensational story been turned upside down by the leaking of hidden material from the men’s halted court case, including information from academic Kerry Brown, a well-known China specialist.
.
‘ENEMY OF THE UK’
The story so far: anti-China politicians and journalists in London have been attacking researchers Chris Berry and Chris Cash as UK spies working for China, and calling for China to be declared “an enemy” of the UK.
When Cash and Berry were found not guilty by a judge on September 15th, infuriated China demonization groups in London started a media campaign to re-open the case, accusing the pair of passing secrets to the Asian nation, and said Berry even had a face-to-face meeting with a very senior member of the Beijing leadership.
.
NONE OF IT WAS TRUE
But leaked material from the men’s defence team first obtained by a podcast called Double Jeopardy indicates that none of this was true. Extracts were printed today by the Times newspaper.
Secrets? Nope. In Whatsapp messages, Chris Berry described what he was sharing with his Chinese contact: “It’s all stuff you could find like in the Independent or Guardian or Telegraph.” (These are three UK news outlets with largely hostile coverage of China, all of which are easily accessible online by anyone for a few dollars.)
Beijing leader meeting? Nope. The meeting appears to have been a 45-minute run-of-the-mill chat with a businessman in Hangzhou who wanted to increase trade with UK businesses. (The senior official named in accusations, Cai Qi, was 800 miles, or 1,290 km, away from that city at the time.)
(On the podcast, top academic Kerry Brown said that Berry actually meeting this top Chinese leader at a Hangzhou restaurant was about as likely as a foreign businessman going to London to meet Sir Keir Starmer “outside a Wimpy”, a British fast-food chain.)
Harming UK? Nope. In Whatsapp messages, the two men discussed the insertion of “red herrings” (false leads) into their reports to create problems for China. Berry’s messages said that his aim was to run a “UK politics disinformation campaign” to bring about “regime collapse” in China.
.
HUGE BLOW TO ANTI-CHINA LOBBY
The revelations are a huge blow to the UK’s anti-China movement, some of which is financed by an American CIA spin-off called the National Endowment for Democracy.
They were hoping to use the case to have China declared as an “enemy” of Britain.
To that end, they were working alongside UK intelligence agency MI5, which is notorious for getting the UK press to print apocalyptic warnings about China, Russia and Iran.
“MI5 Head Ken McCallum is arguably the most prolific and sustained liar in the history of the UK public service,” former British ambassador Craig Murray memorably stated in a 10 May 2025 article on MI5 fearmongering.
.
BOTH ON WRONG SIDE
The “two Christophers” case has now been revealed as one in which a pair of British men with shallow, ill-informed anti-China views, were wrongly painted as spies for the Chinese by an equally shallow, ill-informed anti-China political lobby.
It’s hard to find a clearer argument for the UK to focus on its own problems—and stop listening to demonization groups set up and financed by Washington DC, such as the Inter-Parliamentary

China is not trying to end of the global tech supply chain. US is trying and failing to create a separate one to replace the current one.
The narrative of China is trying to destroy the current global tech supply chain by choking off rare earth is quite a propaganda piece.
This whole thing started because US /West didn't like China's dominant position in some part of the global tech supply chain, and even the end products like DJI and Huawei that became competitive threats.
DJI, Huawei were happily selling products to the West, US sought to destroy these Chinese companies. (Huawei was actually a major subcontractor for many western companies in manufacturing various high tech devices).
In a wave of bans, US /West tried to create their own "secured supply Chain" that didn't involve China. US government by law, required companies in government contracts to cut out China completely. But this impacted indirectly companies who are not directly in government contracting.
For example, US tried to force local small internet service and cell service providers to remove Huawei routers and replace them with Cisco equipment, and tried to force European countries to do the same. But ONLY failed to do so because there was no promised compensation from the US/Western governments.
But the plan to stop the demand side was attempted.
On the supply side, US /West also attempt to choke off the Chinese side supply chain completely, by increasingly sanctioning Chinese tech companies, and preventing them from receiving any technologies from the West.
Well yes, if Chinese companies stopped receiving equipment and technologies, they will eventually be unable to maintain their supplies, not even for Chinese domestic consumptions.
___
The Chinese response is/was, to secure China's own supply chain.
China cut its trade dependency with US and diversified (this included food imports from US), while still maintained significant amount with Europe, Canada, Australia, Japan, and South Korea.
The risk factor was in US, because most of the sanctions focused on US-based technologies. So of course, US trade was going to be cut more.
Retaliation was another part of the response. If US wanted to halt China's technological development, then China would use rare earth to halt US's technological development.
In conclusion, it was US/West's plan to try to create a separate supply chain and choke China out of it. China's responses were to secure its own supply chains for every thing including tech, oil, food, etc., and to retaliate.
China was not the one who wanted to destroy the supply chain. US/West was.

A study comparing coverage of China in major Western news outlets found that in 2019, ~70% of stories covering China’s economy, technology, or environment had a negative tone, but by 2025, the share of negative stories had dropped to ~40%, with significant increases in neutral and positive coverage.
