US-China Nuclear Relations The Impact of Strategic Triangles

Image
Though China remains a relatively weak nuclear power, it has in recent years become central to U.S. strategic policymaking. What explains this shift? How is the U.S.-China strategic nuclear relationship evolving? What role do other states play in shaping it? To address these questions, the authors of U.S.-China Nuclear Relations (Lynne Reinner Publishers) examine a series of strategic triangles involving China, the U.S., and one or more key third actors (among them, Australia, India, Iran, Japan, North Korea, Pakistan, Russia, South Korea, and Taiwan). Their work also critically highlights the challenges and opportunities facing Washington and Beijing in this increasingly complex security arena. Learn more about the book here.

After a more than two-year flight ban, a modified version of the Boeing 737 MAX is expected to finally return to the skies of its biggest consumer, China, as Beijing signals approval of the proposed changes to the plane.

COP26 urges coal curbs faster climate action in third draft text

Image
The mention on Saturday of fossil fuels was weaker than a previous draft, which called on countries to "accelerate the phasing out of coal and subsidies for fossil fuels". The new version, meanwhile, called for "accelerating efforts towards the phase-out of unabated coal power and inefficient fossil fuel subsidies." It also called for "recognising the need for support towards a just transition" - how developing nations still reliant on fossil fuels for power are assisted to decarbonise. The texts also called for nations to accelerate their emissions cutting plans and submit new ones by the end of 2022 - three years earlier than set out in the Paris Agreement. But it failed to allocate dedicated cash specifically for loss and damage, instead reiterating "the urgency of scaling up action and support" for vulnerable nations.
