While the communiques issued at these annual events rarely make for exciting reading, the one choreographed by the Germans this year declares commitments marked by mild ambition, a dearth of concreteness, and few goals whose attainment can be easily measured. |

Economic dangers and Chinese President Xi Jinping’s responses to them will affect China first and foremost — but trouble in China could spell trouble everywhere this year and next. The world is rightly focused on the atrocities being committed by Russia in Ukraine, and China’s choice to stand with Russia is straining globalization’s links. But China’s economic challenges go beyond the war. Threats to China’s outlook are rising in four distinct but overlapping areas: at home, in health, in debt, and in a fracturing globe. |
