On 01st September, 2025, His Excellency Xi Jinping, the President of the People’s Republic of China, during the Shanghai Cooperation Organization Plus meeting held in Tianjin, China proposed the Global Governance Initiative that took in mind a foundational basis of the 80th anniversary of the victory of the world anti-fascist war and the resultant birthing […]
By Joshua Kingdom According to U.S. Bank, China’s overall exports have increased in recent months despite Trump’s hostility towards the Asian superpower upon re-ascending to the presidency. This was only possible because of Beijing’s decision to reduce its dependence on Washington when the first tariffs were slapped against it back in 2018. The shift in […]
The global governance initiative (GGI) is animated by two fundamental facts. First is that central to China’s remarkable achievements over the past half-century has been the Chinese communist party (CPC), while the other is that, in addition to visionary leadership the CPC has had the ability to continuously evolve and adapt [both] itself and its […]
One of the apparent issues involved, and what partly explains the cause of the Ukrainian war, is the difference in approach to international politics between Western leaders and the Russians. NATO nations and the American foreign policy elites seem to adhere, sincerely or hypocritically, to liberal ideals about the exercise of international politics. On the […]
Moments following his inauguration eight months ago, President Trump announced that the United States would be withdrawing from the Paris Agreement, the World Health Organization, and the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development.

And the Ukrainian army is doing the U.S./NATO’s bidding. The U.S., having gathered lessons from wars it has lost in countries like Afghanistan, Iraq and Vietnam, calculated that if […]
One of the greatest instruments for waging war are the tools of mass propaganda. The West, i.e., the USA and NATO nations, are armed to the teeth with these. They control international news and feed audiences with anti-Russian/ anti-Putin propaganda dressed as journalism. Thus, they blame the war in Ukraine entirely on Russia. They also […]
The American political scientist, Graham Allison, popularised the concept famously known as the “Thucydides Trap.” This concept suggests that whenever a rising power threatens to displace an established one, the tension often guarantees a conflict will arise (war), unless deliberate efforts are made to avoid it. The concept borrows its name from Thucydides (c. 460-400 […]
Are Washington and Brussels overreacting toward Russia when it comes to it’s actions in Ukraine? There is a high likelihood that the European Union and the United States are very biased with how they have handled Russia since the escalation of the situation in Ukraine in 2022.
