Somewhere in Beijing, Chinese foreign policy strategists are laughing, and also cringing at AP National Security Correspondent Lara Jakes' current piece on North Korea.
Cringing because Jakes or her editors dropped a few clangers like this characterization of the pivot:
Much of the policy has centered on China - both in strengthening diplomatic ties and economic trade. But China is an unreliable American ally and has been suspicious about the US entreaty, which it sees as economic competition on its own turf. [1]
