Stevenson’s army, September 3
[There’s a Vietnamese dinner called “beef 7 ways.” I thought of that as I noticed several items in the papers today, all on China.]
– WaPo reports that a new Huawei phone shows an advance in Chinese technology
– NYT has a graphic showing how Xi has consolidated power
– NYT also describes the Chinese surveillance state
-Peter Beinart notes the history of GOP preoccupation with China
– In other news, NYT warns of the war on the opposition in Bangladesh
