Long-range bombers were intercepted near Alaska this week by the United States and Canada. The bombers were from China and Russia, and this was the first time such an encounter had occurred in the Alaska Air Defense Identification Zone (ADIZ). This comes on the heels of additional military exercises and maneuvers that represent only thinly veiled threats against the United States and its allies. Yet while this happens, the CCP is playing another role—ostensibly trying to broker peace deals and hold security exercises. Behind the dual nature of China’s behavior is something else though, showing what some have framed as the gangster tactics of the Chinese Communist Party.

Economic warfare is back on the table, following the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) recent declaration of a new economic agenda. The regime wants to develop a high-tech economy and wants it to be domestic. This means cutting out American businesses, getting rid of American software, and making sure that everything the CCP uses is made in China. And this also means the CCP will now be looking into which foreign technologies it uses, finding ways to replicate those technologies, and then booting out the related Western companies. With this, it’s very likely that cyberattacks meant to feed the regime’s economic ambitions are about to go into overdrive. We’ll discuss in this episode of Crossroads.

The United States is facing a growing security threat that has been brewing for years. The Chinese Communist Party and Russia are pushing into the Arctic, and there are concerns they could work to militarize it, giving them an easier attack point if a war were to take place against the United States. The Pentagon has now issued a new strategy on how to face this threat, and could soon begin pushing into the Arctic as well, aided by NATO allies, and with new defensive technologies. We’ll discuss in this episode of Crossroads.

There are signs of growing distrust in the alliance between Russia and the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). The two countries signed a “no limits” agreement around the war in Ukraine, and are moving to create a new security alliance similar to NATO. Yet the CCP seems to be concerned. Russia is playing the subordinate in the relationship, and as the two move forward, old tensions over who’s in charge seem to be emerging. We’ll discuss in this episode of Crossroads.

The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has begun a new campaign to charm foreign leaders and foreign investors. The strategy comes in the wake of the CCP’s top-level meetings in the third plenum, where the regime outlined an economic goal of domestic production, but gave very little in terms of practical steps in fixing the damaged Chinese economy. Yet, while the CCP appears to be trying to form new deals, another crisis for the regime is looming in the background: the United States is planning to announce new sanctions on the CCP, after NATO determined that the regime’s support is enabling Russia’s war in Ukraine.

Chinese netizens are spreading a new poll on quality of life, and it’s highlighting what they’re now referring to as the “Garbage Time.” Their lives are getting more difficult, and some of the luxuries they once enjoyed are fading. With this, they’re also pointing out problems with the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP’s) current economic theory—state interventionism. The regime is facing an economic crisis, and in a recent meeting of top-level CCP members on trying to fix this crisis, the regime opted to go further into the policies of state interventionism, and thus toward even more authoritarianism. We’ll discuss this in this episode of Crossroads.

A combination of floods and droughts is currently hitting China. Between January and June this year, the damage caused by natural disasters in China is alleged to cost around $13 billion. Yet while the recent disasters are being framed as a once-in-a-decade incident, a look back reveals that a similar barrage of floods and droughts have hit China for the last several years, also causing large-scale damage—not only to homes and infrastructure, but also to the food supply.

Chinese companies already own some of the most popular video games on the market. And the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) seems to now be taking notice. The gaming industry for China is now being treated as a type of soft power tool to the West. Cash from one of its most popular games is being used to fund technologies with deep CCP interest. And one of the lesser-known markets related to video games is also coming into focus: data collection. So how is the CCP using video games? We’ll discuss in this episode of Crossroads.

The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) is becoming isolated. NATO has now officially accused the CCP of supplying Russia in the war in Ukraine, and the CCP has responded with denial, alongside new military threats. NATO, meanwhile, is now reaching out to Asian countries, in what appears to be an expanding global alliance that recognizes the CCP as a threat to the free world.
