Over 1 Million Affected by Severe Flooding in China | China in Focus​



Intense flooding batters southern China, forcing people to flee homes, crushing peoples’ livelihoods, and submerging farmlands. We spoke to locals about the situation. The European Union is imposing significant tariffs on electric vehicles coming from China—with the rule taking effect this Friday. Meanwhile, Beijing is formulating trade rules against some key European exports in retaliation. The two sides are expected to hold talks amid the trade war. Reports have emerged of Chinese authorities quietly shutting down some sellers of fentanyl precursors. Washington has been urging Beijing to do its part in curtailing the U.S. opioid epidemic. Some foreign companies are reportedly considering pulling Taiwanese staff out of China. This comes after Beijing threatened the death penalty for anyone supporting Taiwanese independence.

Floods Break Dam at China’s Second Largest Freshwater Lake | China In Focus​



As flooding batters China, the embankment guarding China’s second largest freshwater lake has an emergency breach. Plus, villagers were seen banding together to rescue a 90-year-old. A glue factory explosion rocks Southern China and was caught on camera. The cause of the incident is now under investigation. Reporting to Beijing, gathering intel, and spreading propaganda—Chinese Communist Party members say they’re still living under the regime’s shadow, even after moving to the other side of the world and putting down roots in the United States. We take a look at the impacts on American soil. In a counterpunch against Beijing’s aggression, Japan and the Philippines sign a landmark defense pact as China ramps ups its pressure on Manila.

I was probably 40 years old before I ever tried poutine. Just wasn’t a thing here.

We’ve got such a mixed pile of dogs at home at this point, pretty much anything is accurate. Four of them currently. All smaller than days gone by though because we’re getting older.

Chinese Student Pleads Guilty to Espionage Charges | China In Focus


A Chinese student pleads guilty to spying. Prosecutors said he used a drone to snap photos of sensitive naval vessels in a U.S. military base that are still under construction. The world's biggest military alliance kicks off its summit. NATO and its Asian partners appear more united than ever when it comes to countering the Chinese Communist Party. As the United States and its defense allies meet in Washington, India's leader speaks with Russia's president. How are the United States and Kyiv reacting? The public gets its first glimpse of a pair of iconic panda bears in San Diego, but how do the animals play into Beijing's diplomatic strategies?

US Coast Guard Spots Chinese Warships Near Alaska | China In Focus​



Chinese warships have popped up in waters near Alaska. The sightings were made just a few days before the kickoff of the NATO summit in Washington. The group represents the world’s most powerful military alliance. As NATO wraps up its summit, the alliance agrees on one clear goal: stop Chinese aid to Russia's war. The 32 member nations inked a pact that labels China a "decisive enabler" of Russia's invasion in Ukraine. How did China respond? Four Chinese vessels are spotted in Taiwanese waters, while 66 Chinese aircraft take to the skies near the island, all in just one day. Meanwhile, a Chinese carrier passes by Taiwan and the Philippines as it heads for a drill in the Pacific. A rally, a march, and a candlelight vigil—Congress members and religious freedom groups join practitioners of Falun Gong at the U.S. Capitol to call for an end to the Chinese Communist Party's unprecedented persecution of faith.
