China tells the world the Maoist madness is over

Summary

This article by Ambrose Evans-Pritchard, writing for Australian Financial Review, makes the following points:

• China claims it wants a new era of détente after the ‘wolf warrior’ diplomacy of the past five years.
• It is a subtle way of saying that the neo-Maoist fever of Jinping’s second term is over.
• If China’s claims are true, Xi’s third term will be a significant pivot back towards more rational foreign and trading policies.
