The Australian Intel Chief is now pounding about this lmao.

He has given 2 potential solutions.

1) US must pool resources with UK/AUS to defeat China in Tech.

2) Start mass hiring of Chinese and Russian scientists to stifle China.

I don’t think Chinese and Russians are camping enthusiasts.

I've never understood why brilliant Chinese scientists are paid less than middle level managers at Alibaba and social media celebrities.

The most popular social media celebrities can probably count all their staff on 1 hand assuming they even have any employees in the first place beside themselves. They don’t generally have a lot of work related expenses and thus keep most of the money for themselves.

"France will resist US pressure to decouple"
What would that translate to though? Renegotiate the CAI?

Still regardless of the details such moves by EU key members to look out for themselves instead of bet on US will make Japan and South Korea nervous. I'm still betting if there's a country first jump out and stab US in the back it will be Japan.
You run the risk of losing your pants in your bet. If you use Yahoo Japan, you would found the Japanese MSM's is offensive and full of misdirection, especially during the Japanese foreign minister's visit to China. Also, the related comments are dominated by negative speculation which shows their distrust of China.

You can also pay attention to Qin's answer:

NHK: This year marks the 45th anniversary of the Japan-China Peace and Friendship Treaty. Now, the difference in the positions of the two countries in the fields of politics, economy and security has become clear. How does the new Chinese government plan to build relations with Japan in the future?

Qin Gang: China and Japan are close neighbors. To foster a China-Japan relationship for the new era, it is important to do the following:

First, honor commitments. Our two countries signed the Treaty of Peace and Friendship 45 years ago, codifying the principles and direction for the development of China-Japan relations for the first time. This Treaty, together with the other three political documents between China and Japan, form the political foundation of the bilateral relations. These documents, particularly the important political consensus that the two countries should “be partners, not threats”, must be truly observed. Words must be matched with actions.

Second, learn lessons from history. The immense sufferings imposed by the Japanese militarists on the Chinese nation are still painful today. The Chinese people will not forget this, and the Japanese side must not forget. Forgetting history is a betrayal, and denying a crime is to repeat a crime. China always treats Japan with goodwill and hopes for friendship and good-neighborliness. Yet, should some people from the Japanese side choose a beggar-thy-neighbor approach rather than pursuing partnership, and even take part in a new Cold War to contain China, the bilateral relations would only suffer new wounds when the old ones are yet to be healed.

Third, preserve the international order. Some leaders in Japan recently have also been talking a lot about “international order”. We need to make clear what order they are talking about. Today’s international order is built on the victory of the World Anti-Fascist War, which cost the lives and blood of 35 million Chinese soldiers and civilians. The Chinese people will never accept any form of historical revisionism that challenges the post-war international order and international justice. The Treaty of Peace and Friendship explicitly opposed hegemonism, and its spirit remains relevant today.

Fourth, promote win-win cooperation. China and Japan are highly complementary and need each other. We should uphold market principles and a free and open spirit, increase cooperation, jointly ensure stable and smooth industrial and supply chains, and inject impetus and vitality into global economic recovery.

One more issue I wish to raise here. The Japanese government has decided to discharge contaminated water of the Fukushima nuclear power plant into the sea. This is not Japan’s private business, but a major issue vital to the marine environment and human health. We urge the Japanese side to properly handle this matter in a responsible manner.
Qin was very honest in this regard, but the five points he raised are very difficult for Japan to do and affect China's trust in Japan.
Anyway, if the Japan could jump out first, it will be the biggest mistake the US has made since WW2.

According to Führer Ursula, China has the responsibility to clean up the mess the United States and Europe created in Ukraine.

Ursula von der Leyen told the Financial Times in an interview the bloc was “concerned by [China’s] position of friendship with Russia”, but said Beijing should use its ties with Moscow to rein in Kremlin’s war, which began just over a year ago.

“China is in a position to influence Russia in a constructive way, and therefore they have a responsibility,” the commission chief said. “You cannot be in between — you cannot be for half of the international order.”

She emphasised that while President Xi Jinping had visited Moscow last month, he had still not made a phone call to Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyy.

My speculation of the outcome of the coming visit of Von der Leyen and Macron is in Chinese diplomatic language "frankly exchange view on various issues". In plain language, both speak without listening each other and get nothing. It is just a show of "we are not fighting each other YET".
