COVID-19 Exposes America’s Anti-Science Traditions

COVID-19 Exposes America’s Anti-Science Traditions

By Ishan Basak on July 22, 2020

Five years ago, #DonaldTrump released a National Security Strategy that talked of Russia & China in the same breath. By contrast, #JoeBiden’s new Strategy speaks of Russia is a declining power even in the face of the #UkraineWar, writes @Armaan_Mathur_ https://freedomgazette.in/2022/11/americas-new-national-security-strategy-puts-china-over-russia/

After relentless hacker-bot attempts, it seems that the @Freedom_Gazette website has been taken off the net for still mystifying reasons. Apologies for the inconvenience. We're fighting to bring it back up, but we're clearly not the first nor the last victims of whatever this is!

Many believed that the #UkraineWar would test China's patience with Russia & that Russia would be wary of being seen as a junior partner to China. To the contrary, the two countries are closer than ever & restricting India's options, argues Ved Shinde: https://freedomgazette.in/2022/07/how-ukraine-war-and-putin-xi-alliance-restrict-indias-options/

For the first time since the Russian empire, Central Asia is freeing itself from Russian influence. Central Asia has opposed #Putin on the #UkraineRussianWar. China and Turkey are stepping in to fill the power vacuum. But India remains absent and aloof. https://freedomgazette.in/2022/07/india-is-letting-opportunities-slip-in-central-asia/

China’s great power aspirations suffer from a paradox, writes @Armaan_Mathur_: Ancient China saw the world as a hierarchy of states with China at the centre & its closed economy helped realise that vision. But modern China is dependent on the outside world https://freedomgazette.in/2022/06/chinas-great-power-aspirations-are-based-on-a-paradox/
