Sensing frustration among many Russians towards the Ukraine war, Russia’s liberal Yabloko party is hoping to use parliamentary elections this September to raise its profile, casting itself as the only opposition group in favour of a ceasefire. Elections in Russia are tightly controlled – every parliamentary vote since 2003 has been won by the ruling “United Russia” party, which supports President Vladimir Putin.

China shifts from Africa’s top megaproject lender to a debt collector

Since the mid‑2000s, China has established itself as Africa’s principal bilateral financier for large infrastructure projects, including railways, bridges, dams and ports. But as the loans involved reach maturity, Beijing has transitioned from a net provider of funds to a net collector.

Why was a US Yale graduate hounded out of his job promoting Chinese culture?

In just two months, Yale graduate Edward Kuperman went from being praised by Chinese state media to being bombarded with accusations that he was a spy. It began with a June 18 article from state news agency Xinhua, in which he was described as an eager 24-year-old sinophile who made the unconventional choice of spurning China’s eastern metropolises and choosing to live in Dunhuang, in the country’s northwestern Gansu province, an oasis town on the ancient Silk Road. His interest in China started with a Chinese language class in junior high, as well as books and films about China, Xinhua said. At 17, he was an exchange student in Suzhou, […]
