China has delivered a forceful warning to U.S. President Donald Trump, accusing the United States of fueling instability in the South China Sea and backing what it calls “provocative actions” by the Philippines.

US President Donald Trump expressed sympathy for Jimmy Lai following the former Hong Kong media tycoon's conviction on national security charges, but stopped short of pledging action to secure his release.

When the Trump administration unveiled its new national security strategy (NSS) late Thursday, many experts noticed one major shift: how it talks – or more importantly, doesn’t talk – about China.

Donald Trump’s decision to allow Nvidia Corp. to sell advanced chips to China marks more than just a shift in US tech policy. It also raises questions about how far he’ll go to steady ties with Xi Jinping.

Several former colleagues of Hong ‌Kong ​media mogul Jimmy Lai at the Apple Daily newspaper ‌reacted with dismay at his national security conviction, fearing Lai and other former staffers may be given a heavy sentence but ​saying he remains an inspiration.
