The CCP claims there's no median line of the #Taiwan🇹🇼 Strait after #PLA warplanes crossed it repeatedly. I call on the international community to condemn the CCP for its dangerous & provocative words & deeds threatening peace & the status quo. #China must back off! JW twitter.com/cnni/status/13…

Happy birthday to @durov, founder of @telegram, which powers leaderless movt against authoritarian rules & censorship in #Hongkong & #Belarus, and enhances our resilience against #China’s oppression & #policebrutality. #HKers owe you for what you've done.

[Companies should find ways to reduce vulnerability to #Beijing]
1. #China’s new unreliable entity list adds one more widget to its tool kits of economic statecraft, under which it has full discretion in determining which companies are problematic.
