  • A blip unnoticed but important

    Only in February, Beijing issued a decree that eight Russian cities in east Siberia, which China claims as its own, must be marked on international maps by their Chinese names, including Vladivostok. Xi’s eyes may focus increasingly on this long-
    running territorial dispute and a self-eviscerated Russia may not be able to do anything about it.

    I used to be a stand up comedian. Back in the day I played the Borscht Belt in the northeast of Russia.
    But even back then the hotels offered Chinese carryout.
