Beijing’s hypocrisy extends beyond trade. It promotes people-to-people exchange between the United States and China, yet Ekpar remains imprisoned after participating in a U.S. government exchange program. Ekpar's story tells a different China. @USATODAY usatoday.com/story/opinion/v…

Talked to @NikkeiAsia on Han Kuang. Forget the internet slowdown—3 fundamentals matter: US-style rehearsals to embed Mission Command, brigade-level reserve call-ups, & the new Littoral Combat Command as the COG of the counter-landing fight. asia.nikkei.com/politics/int…

Had a fantastic debrief with @AngryTaiwanman on the Trump-Xi meeting for @taiwanplusnews
China and the US have released details of Thursday's summit between US President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping. Taiwan featured heavily in the Chinese readout but was not mentioned at all in the White House's account.

.@ACGlobalChina’s Melanie Hart explains the strategy behind Xi’s warning on Taiwan: “He wants Trump to feel like he cannot move forward with a $14 billion arms sales to Taiwan,” she tells @business. “Xi Jinping is trying to gin up a level of fear and caution that isn’t appropriate for the situation.”

In @washingtonpost, I urged @POTUS, @SecRubio to make Ekpar’s release a condition of progress with China— not a footnote or a talking point, but a named request posed directly to Xi. Xi talks about people to people exchange. Ekpar participated in @StateDept program & imprisoned.
