Trade war and more
Trade war and more

Has Fourth Industrial Revolution really arrived?

Abe's US, EU trips set G20 agenda
Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe topped off last Saturday a busy diplomatic week after two days with Donald Trump in the United States. Earlier, he and top European leaders also met in Brussels for the EU-Japan summit which not only deepened their bilateral strategic partnership, but also set the agenda for June's G20 summit in Osaka.

US distrust and North Korean desperation
US distrust and North Korean desperation
The failure of the second summit between U.S. President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong-un in Hanoi in February has caused frustration and dissatisfaction with the progress of diplomatic efforts for the North's denuclearization.
