Degeneration of Arab world

World Economic Forum roiled by rising risks
The 2019 World Economic Forum (WEF), which starts in Davos, Tuesday, coincides with rising geopolitical and geo-economic risks.

China-Japan ties
China-Japan ties
Improving ties between China and Japan are in the interest of both countries. Behind deep mistrust, the relations need a new impetus to be motivated. These big economies - the world's second- and third-largest - need to cooperate rather than compete in a horrible manner.
