China protests

Ending “zero COVID” is Beijing’s best option, but it comes at the worst possible time.

Taiwanese groups organized a series of vigils supporting the protests that broke out in China in late November.

China’s middle class has rarely taken part in political activism over the past 30 years. They are now voicing their discontent – to a point.

The people of Iran and China are at a make-or-break point in their history, and the West’s values-based diplomacy is the key to their fate.

“In China, everyone is one step from becoming a dissident” – and zero COVID has pushed many to make that final step.

In the streets, on banners, in cyberspace, collectively, and individually – people in China are speaking out.

Wuhan residents protested the construction of a waste-to-energy plant, repeating a pattern seen elsewhere in China in recent years.

The regime’s repressive efforts are increasing, but they are also failing in important ways.
