Professor Ken Hammond of New Mexico State University, argues the trip exposes the contradiction at the heart of U.S. policy, with corporate elites demonizing China publicly while depending on Chinese markets, technology, and rare earth supplies behind closed doors. “The kind of bullying and the kind of hostility and aggressiveness that the United States has deployed towards China simply isn't going to work,” says Hammond. “The idea that somehow we are going to derail China's progress, that's just not reality.” #breakthroughnews Thu, 14 May 2026 09:30:40 GMT https://validator.w3.org/feed/docs/rss2.html PeerTube - https://tankie.tube https://tankie.tube/lazy-static/avatars/3ba3ff73-a8b6-49c9-add8-9653ef090c7f.webp https://tankie.tube/videos/watch/b9555181-5fc7-4de3-a677-752d698feea1 All rights reserved, unless otherwise specified in the terms specified at https://tankie.tube/about and potential licenses granted by each content's rightholder.
