Chinese state media is building a global presence using excellent international talent such as Michelle Makori, with whom it is always a pleasure to discuss geo-political, macro-economic, and investment trends. The mainstream media in the West is NOT doing its homework on Ukraine--I suspect we are backing the wrong coalition there and I know we are not shaking things up enough in Europe. They need to abandon high cost, debt and deficit ridden government, achieve combination benefits if they truly wish to unify (an open, unanswered question) and pay their fair shares for defending western civilization. Poking Putin in eastern europe while flailing in the Middle East will soon have grace consequences for the USA--can anyone talk sense to Barack Obama?
