Remembering Asia's bloodiest war

WASHINGTON - The Korean War is less and less “forgotten.” You don't hear people calling it “the Forgotten War” nearly as much as we did years ago.

Push for new antitrust rules infested with cronyism?

Discouraging deterrence

Among the torrent of comments over the war in Ukraine is the view that if Ukraine had retained some degree of nuclear weapons capability instead of giving it all up in 1994, it would have had an effective deterrent to prevent Russia's involvement in the Donbas, its annexation of Crimea and its recent invasion of the country.

What is China's COVID endgame?

For most of the past two years, China's “zero-COVID” strategy was seen as a drastic but effective way to maintain impressively low infection rates. The Chinese government locked down millions of people at a time, ordering them to stay in their homes - or even in schools and office buildings.
