The new Oxford Handbook of Terrorism has a chapter by me on Asia, where the vast majority of the world’s Muslims live and which is the world’s most terrorism-torn region. The fight against terrorism in Asia promises to prove a long and difficult one.https://twitter.com/EricaChenoweth/status/1108844238249304064 …

The global backlash against
#China over its#COVID19 response has gained momentum in recent weeks largely because of the bullying tactics of President#XiJinping’s government, argues@Chellaney.https://bit.ly/2A0iMTAThanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo -
Malaysia's king scuttled democracy in March by bringing to power those lacking an electoral mandate to govern. The new rulers are the old, scandal-stained politicians who have used the coronavirus to suspend the rule of law and cement their grip on power.https://www.nytimes.com/2020/05/22/world/asia/malaysia-politics-najib.html?action=click&module=Latest&pgtype=Homepage …

My latest
@ProSyn column examines how, under Xi, China is turning into its own worst enemy: It is inviting international hostility and acting in ways that undermine its own long-term interests.https://www.project-syndicate.org/commentary/china-government-worsens-global-covid19-backlash-by-brahma-chellaney-2020-05 …Thanks.

Himalayan spats: My timeline (pasted below) of how India's MEA ended up contradicting the Indian Army chief, who should not have spoken out of turn. Has the PLA chief ever issued a statement on a border incident with another country?pic.twitter.com/vJ5t2eW72v

Xi's imperial overreach has been fueling a global backlash, but will his Hong Kong move prove the straw that broke the camel's back? Bipartisan calls for US sanctions have greeted Beijing's decision to impose a sweeping new security law on Hong Kong to help crush protests there.

Whats happening in the Himalayas is part of this broader aggressive trend:

China, meanwhile, doubles down on its accusations against India. The Chinese MFA's quintessential "wolf warrior" Zhao Lijian told the media that Chinese forces will respond "resolutely" to India's activities. He castigated senior U.S. diplomat Alice Wells for "taking nonsense."pic.twitter.com/0df1G00gV9

HIMALAYAN BORDER TENSIONS: India's MEA finally reacts to the Chinese MFA statement that warned India of “necessary counter-measures.” It took the MEA over 30 hours to release a mildly worded response (pasted below) that pins the blame on the PLA for obstructing Indian patrolling.pic.twitter.com/TxKeMhmyfU

Those in the U.S. who obsessed with the overweening threat Russia supposedly posed to their country's democracy were unwittingly playing into the hands of an increasingly despotic China, which used America's Russia fixation to rapidly expand its influence.https://video.foxnews.com/v/6157846183001

China warned India yesterday of “necessary counter-measures” if Indian troops failed to "return immediately" from the Himalayan flareups with Chinese forces. Why has India stayed silent? Why not set the record straight and politely tell an aggressor China to stop playing victim?

Alice Wells,
@State_SCA's outgoing head, says the new Himalayan flareups are "a reminder that Chinese aggression is not always just rhetorical," adding that, whether in South China Sea or along the India border, "we continue to see provocations and disturbing behavior by China."Thanks.

Political disarray in Kathmandu and the PM's failing health have not deterred Nepal's communist rulers from publishing a new national map that includes some Indian areas in the west and the south. Alas, they seem to be learning cartographic aggression from their mentor China.pic.twitter.com/G14hjGlrbl

Pyrrhic victory? The resolution passed by WHO assembly leaves it to Tedros to initiate an independent probe “at the earliest appropriate moment.” Tedros may wait until the pandemic is "in control," as Xi proposed. By then, China hopes to defuse the international anger against it.

Such is the incompetence of Indian authorities that, nearly eight weeks after a lockdown-triggered exodus of migrant workers began, the crisis has become acute. Besides giving India a bad name, this has contributed to a surge in COVID-19 infections, thus undermining the lockdown.

The Panchen Lama, one of the world’s youngest and longest-serving political prisoners, was just six years old when China abducted him and appointed a puppet in his place. Now China is waiting for the Dalai Lama to pass away to repeat the same experiment.https://twitter.com/SecPompeo/status/1262457925769011206 …

While the world grapples with the China-originating pandemic, China has engaged in military actions against several neighbors in recent weeks. Aggressive PLA moves along the Himalayan frontier—as in Ladakh and Sikkim—have triggered new tensions with India.https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/india/chinese-troops-resort-to-aggressive-posturing-in-ladakh-north-sikkim-sources/articleshow/75831131.cms …

How does Nepal's pro-China communist regime expect to make a difference by including three Indian-controlled areas in a new national map? Why did Nepal’s official maps in the past not show these claimed areas as Nepalese territory? Why fuel passions now?https://twitter.com/PradeepgyawaliK/status/1262403555731759104 …
