These photos really illustrate the optimism, determination and passion of the students who took part in the Tiananmen protests in 1989. Striking contrast to the pervasive sentiments among Chinese youth today: "躺平 ("lying flat") and 摆烂 ("letting it rot").
For 35 years, Chinese leaders have tried to erase all memory of the Tiananmen protests and the brutal massacre that crushed them. Last week I found a file of photos I took in Beijing in 1989, most of which I haven't seen since. I will post some now to commemorate those times.
It took less than a week for #Beijing to brand new #Taiwan leader Lai Ching-te a threat worth getting the big guns out for. Here's our wrap on the 2 days of Chinese military drills designed to intimidate the island and warn the US: youtu.be/HkZ-gNm5UgE?si…
William Lai Ching-te has become #Taiwan's president. He's called for peace and urged Beijing to end threats and intimidation, but #China says he's sending dangerous signals with his closeness to the US: youtu.be/uOB6ZmXTNao?si…
Putin's in #China to solidify a partnership that's going from strength to strength despite Western criticism. Moscow needs #Beijing, but #Xi also needs #Moscow for his mission to subvert the US-led international order. Our report: youtube.com/watch?v=wEY6Dk…
China dominates the global electric vehicle market, but that dominance is being questioned by the US. We report from the #Beijing Auto Show where almost 300 EVs were on display: youtu.be/NSdWTwApPlo?si… #ElectricVehicles
US Secretary of State Antony Blinken is in #China expecting difficult conversations ahead. Beijing's support for Russia, #US funding for Taiwan and the fentanyl crisis are just some flashpoints on the agenda. Here's my report on what to expect: youtu.be/wTSGnHGPQ1A?si…
Ambitious targets set by officials at opening of #China's National People's Congress. But can they actually achieve them? Our Day 1 report on #Beijing's balancing act between growth and long-term economic transformation youtu.be/SCs0omR-PcM?si… #NPC
China's leaders are gathering for their annual parliament under pressure to stave off potential social unrest due to the slowing economy. Here's our wrap of #Beijing's biggest challenges as the #NPC begins today: youtu.be/6K8k49WMLYg?si…
China's biggest annual political meeting is kicking off this week, the National People's Congress. As #Beijing grapples with a stagnant economy and confidence crisis, we'll report on the latest affecting the world's second largest economy. Stay tuned to @AJEnglish #China #NPC
Three years on from the military seizing power in #Myanmar, #China is increasingly worried about instability along its border. #Beijing brokered a ceasefire between the regime & rebel groups, but its unlikely to hold. Our report from the Chinese border: youtu.be/HArYNygsGM4?si…
Ahead of #Taiwan's election on Saturday #Beijing is doing whatever it can to influence the vote, some of it covert. Here's our @AJEnglish report from across the strait in Fujian: youtu.be/UYXsquBTcT4?si…
2023 was expected to a year of booming post-covid19 recovery for #China, instead the #economy has stagnated with the job market tighter than its been in decades and a persistent property market crisis weighing on growth: My report for @AJEnglish youtu.be/f1n2gtqI_uw?si…
Statement by the Latin Patriarchate in Jerusalem on the shooting and killing of two women in the Catholic church in Gaza. When will this end? Enough.
Al Jazeera journalist Samer Abu Daqqa laid to rest in southern Gaza aje.io/1k05sn
I had to report on the death of my colleague Samer Abu Daqqa killed by indiscriminate bombing like the thousand other innocent civilians in Gaza. Our colleagues continue to be the voice and eyes of Gaza eventhough tragedy doesn’t spare them youtu.be/42u_UFkXhdY?si…
China and Vietnam have upgraded ties during Xi Jinping's visit to Hanoi. This just three months after Joe Biden visited Vietnam doing the same. Our @AJEnglish report on Vietnam's rising importance in the region and its complex history with #China: youtu.be/1ekzCVJp810?si…
“We have a clear message from the [Israeli] head of a state about the need to destroy a population that as the president portrayed them, are all enemies.”
Gaza is a 'textbook genocide'. This is according to Raz Segal - an Israeli associate professor of Holocaust and genocide studies at Stockton University in the US. Listen carefully to what he says. It's based on facts, law and precedent - and it should terrify you.
"Who’s going to tell the world? Once a story is not told for a day or two, it’s forgotten. If I don’t stand in front of the camera... how is the world going to know?" A moving account from my brave @AJEnglish colleague, journalist, survivor and mother @YoumnaElSayed17
“The Only Thing Keeping Me Standing Is the Suffering I’m Seeing”: Being a Journalist in Gaza thenation.com/article/world/…
Absolutely chilling words from @UNReliefChief Martin Griffith that really put into perspective just how historically atrocious what's happening in Gaza is: "The. Worst. Ever. And I don't say that lightly. I mean I started off in my twenties dealing with Khmer rouge and you…
“The worst ever.” Those are the stark words of @UNReliefChief Martin Griffiths, about the death and destruction in Gaza. Having worked in the field for decades, he adds “I don’t say that lightly.” Watch our full conversation.
