‼️ Michael Hudson: Note 2 on the planned Alaska meeting
The discussion and the thinking continue:  Note 1 is here

Putin started this year’s meetings with Trump by saying that the root of their problems is not Ukraine. Ukraine is only an arena in the fight by NATO (led by the US) against Russia, China, and their BRICS and Global South allies.

To solve the fighting in Ukraine, the expansion of NATO must end. That is what Putin demands.

But there seems...  Read more »

🇨🇳🇧🇷In a phone conversation on Tuesday Xi told Lula that China backs the Brazilian people in defending their national sovereignty and supports Brazil in safeguarding its legitimate rights and interests.

Xi called BRICS a key platform for building consensus in the Global South and said China is ready to work with Brazil to set an example of unity and self-reliance among major Global South nations, Chinese state media Xinhua reported.

All countries should unite in resolutely fighting unilateralism and protectionism, he said.

China and Brazil pledged to enhance coordination within BRICS and the G20 to oppose unilateral bullying practices. Xi described China-Brazil relations as being at their peak in history, according to Xinhua.

The phone call came days after US tariffs on Brazilian goods jumped to 50 percent and before Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin are set to meet on Friday.

Beyond political cooperation, Xi and Lula focused on growing business potential between Brazil and China.
The Brazilian presidency underlined that both leaders showed a willingness to explore new areas of economic cooperation while expanding on existing strong trade flows.

Agriculture remains a cornerstone of the partnership, with China being the world’s top importer of soybeans, most of which are from Brazil.

Brazilian coffee exporters have recently strengthened their position in the Chinese market, owing in part to tariffs imposed by the US.

With the global economic climate becoming more confined by tariff walls and trade tensions, both leaders seem determined to harness their partnership to reinforce market access, advance South–South cooperation, and broaden the political influence of BRICS. @LauraRuHK
