China has been launching the same message to the world about Taiwan. The date was 2027 … until the US bombarded Iran

by

Now that there is a certain tense calm in the Middle East, there are many analysts who have turned the magnopolitical framework. In June we already commented that, in a turn of the most perverse events, the United States attack Iran intended to contain a nuclear proliferation could be the catalyst of another even more dangerous: North Korea. There was a second stage to draw: that of China and Taiwan. Start over. The analysts told of the New York Times That the American attack against Iranian nuclear facilities has added a new layer of complexity to the already tense geopolitical equation between the United States, China and Taiwan. What began as a diplomatic strategy became a sudden offensive that now serves as Element of study For Chinese leaders, who seek to anticipate how Trump would respond to an eventual crisis in the Taiwan Strait. His Erratic behavior And his willingness to resort to the use of force, even having previously rejected it, generate confusion in Beijing. China, they agree, observe this turn as a sign that Trump, far from representing a predictable position, could apply a logic of force equally in Asia if it perceives that their interests are at stake. Iran’s mirror. In the same way What North Koreahe Attack on Iran has been able to force Chinese strategists to Check your models of contingency with respect to Taiwan. Despite the obvious differences between the two scenarios, the essential lesson It is shared: Trump is willing to unleash military operations if he considers it appropriate, even against adversaries with limited response capacity such as Iran. Beijing, on the other hand, has a considerably superior military power and is known closer to the theater of operations than any American force. Even so, the possibility of a sudden escalation forces the Chinese to prepare For a Scenario fanfrom a diplomatic crisis to a direct confrontation that escapes their hands. Uncertainty about Trump’s red line is precisely what worries them. Taiwan and ambiguity. A constant in American politics towards Taiwan has been the calculated ambiguity: dissuad China from that invasion that sounds by 2027 (coinciding with The EPL centenary), without explicitly guaranteeing a military intervention. Trump has brought that ambiguity to an extreme level. At times ha praised Xi Jinping And he has given relaxes of distensionwhile in others he has hardened his rhetoric and has intensified The supply of weapons to Taipéi. For Beijing, this duality is disconcerting but also dangerous, because it cannot be certain to its behavior. In this context, Chinese analysts They have intensified His scrutiny, maintaining discrete meetings with American interlocutors in search of clues about the true limits of the former president. The impression they transmit is of nervous caution: they fear that the Trump’s unpredictability can trigger an unwanted crisis. Cross pressures. The tension not only emanates from Beijing. Remembered in another report the Time Magazine that within the United States and Taiwan there is fear that Trump himself, in his eagerness, ends giving something to China In a future summit with XI, perhaps in the form of an ambiguous statement or a significant omission about the defense of the island. Washington, as we said, maintains armament supply (And more) and exhortes Taipéi to increase his military spending, but it is the president who finally decides. That centralization of power and its erratic character They worry both in the Pentagon and in the Taiwanese presidential palace. We have Cash: The recent ones Chinese maneuversincluding deployment of aircraft carriers Beyond the first island chain, they are seen as stress tests: Silent drills to measure the allied reaction capacity and the degree of real commitment of Washington. Taiwan between lines and symbols. While Beijin accuses President Taiwanesa Lai Ching-Te de Separatismo, the island administration insists that it is the maneuvers and Chinese threats that They tension the rope. In turn, within Taiwan, there are those who interpret Trump’s attack to Iran as An indirect warning To the great powers, a coded message towards Moscow and Beijing: if a line is crossed, the answer could be immediate. But the comparison between Iran and China is dangerous. He Missile Arsenal from Beijing (which includes about 3,500 missiles Conventional, nuclear ballistic submarines and a rapid assembly) would make a lightning offensive like the one launched in the Middle East. China knows it, and that is why Multiply your deploymentsair incursions and Naval exercisesconsolidating a constant pressure on the island, designed to wear it psychologically and strategically. China between two fronts. Plus: while facing these uncertainties in the east, Beijing must deal with a growing perception of threat in the West. The Recent statements From the secretary general of NATO, Mark Rutte, alerting about Chinese military expansion and his possible coordination with Russia in case of crisis in Taiwan, reinforce the western narrative of China As a systemic challenge. Beijing, meanwhile, denounces that NATO seeks to justify its expansion to Asia using China As a pretext. A theater of shadows. In summary, Trump has shown that he can change course Without prior noticeand that feature, far from reassuring, introduces a dangerous volatility element. Meanwhile, China explores if you can find a loop to weaken American support to Taipéi, even Without resorting to force. And in parallel, the military apparatus of the United States and its allies fears that any calculation error, any word out of place at a summit, can trigger a chain reaction. The military action In Iran it is not just a specific act: it is a declaration of ambiguous intentions, one that has put all the actors of the Indo-Pacific board alert.

The US attack on Iran was a forceful message to the development of nuclear weapons. Less for North Korea

by

It is very possible that a nation has been stuck to television by observing everything that happened in Iran. About 20 years ago, North Korea began Send engineers Specialized in the excavation of deep tunnels to Tehran. Two decades later, what was learned was tested through the greater furtive attack of the United States against Iranian underground nuclear facilities. A nuclear lesson. They had several analysts In the CNN than the recent ones United States bombings by deployment of b-2 bombersThey have caused an immediate shock not only in the Middle East, but also in Eastern Asia. For experts, this act of force launches a clear (and dangerous) message to North Korea: without nuclear weapons, You are vulnerable. For Kim Jong Un, which has been reinforcing for years Your atomic program As the Central Survival Pilar of the regime, the US attack confirms a long sustained narrative: nuclear deterrence is the only reliable shield against a regime change from the outside. Thus, far from determining proliferation, military action against Iran could accelerate Pyongyang’s arms expansion, in addition to strengthening its Strategic Alliance With Russia, which has become A military lifeguardtechnological and vital economy For the North Korean regime since the beginning of the war in Ukraine. The Moscow-Pyongyang axis. We have gone counting. Since 2024, North Korea and Russia have Institutionalized your cooperation in a strategic agreement of broad scope. According to A report of the multilateral sanctions monitoring team, Pyongyang has sent More than 14,000 soldiers and millions of ammunition, including missiles and rockets, to support the Russian invasion of Ukraine. In return, has received Air defense systems, anti -aircraft missiles, electronic warfters, critical military technology and refined fuel. Plus: the ability to Build Shaheds. This exchange not only finances the North Korean military program, but allows you to access to advanced technologiesdirect experience in modern war and an alternative source of resources to Western sanctions. In the eyes of the North Korean regime, the pact is not only pragmatic but necessary in the face of international isolation, and the attack on Iran makes it even more indispensable. Examples feeding the paranoia. From that perspective, the strategic message could not be clearer to Kim: countries that do not have nuclear weapons are exposed to American intervention. Iraq was invaded without having weapons of mass destruction. Libya left his nuclear program in exchange for diplomatic normalization, just to see Gaddafi overthrown years later. Iran signed the nuclear agreement and maintained its enrichment below the arms threshold, According to the OIEAbut it was still attacked. Two certainties. In contrast, North Korea has already done Six nuclear testshe owns between 40 and 50 active heads and has developed ballistic missiles Intercontinental capable of reaching the United States. Its arsenal, which includes multiple launch vectors, makes Pyongyang an actor with real deterrence and radically differentiates it from Iran. For Victor Cha, from CSIS, American bombings to Iran reinforce in Kim two certainties: The United States does not have a viable military option against the North Korean nuclear program, and its decision to maintain and expand its nuclear arsenal was correct. First nuclear submarine of North Korea Tripartite deterrence. In addition, there is a difference against Iran: North Korea has a Triple Defense System that complicates any American military option. First, its own nuclear arsenal, second, the defensive alliance with Russia, which allows Moscow to intervene automatically in case of attack, and third, the legal and political need of Prior consultation With South Korea, required by the bilateral treaty with Washington, which converts any action into a regional and diplomatic high voltage issue. In this regard, Professor Lim Eul-Chul warnedfrom the Kyungam University, which attacking North Korea could detonate a Total nuclear wargiven your ability to respond. “It’s not Iran,” LEIF-AMER EASLEY emphasizesby Ewha Womans University. Pyongyang can Attack directly To the United States and, in addition, Seoul is shot from most of its weapons systems. Deterrence when rearma. The foreseeable consequence of the attack on Iran is a hardening of the North Korean position. The regime could Accelerate your tests Ballistics, advance in new eyes, experiment with long -range propulsion and expand your attack vectors. I would also do it under the mantle Russia protector and in open indifference to the resolutions of the UN Security Council, whose coercive effects have been reduced to a diplomatic formality. In strategic terms, North Korea’s reaction will probably not be defensive but expansive: Technological cooperation with Moscow, joint military exercises, transfer of ballistic knowledge and new forms of economic and military interdependence. The TNP. They remembered In The Conversation That the non -proliferation treaty, adopted in 1968, was a commitment between the five recognized nuclear powers (United States, Soviet Union, France, United Kingdom and China) to not transfer nuclear weapons and commit, at least formally, to disarmament. In return, other countries promised not to develop atomic weapons. The treaty, then reinforced with the additional protocol of the OIEA, endowed the nuclear inspection agency for broad powers for Verify peaceful use of atomic energy. It was the Oiea who first warned in 2003 about the suspicious enrichment of Uranium in Iran. And it was also this organization that, weeks before the recent bombings, denounced the Iranian breach for the first time in twenty years. A fragile pact. However, effectiveness of the TNP It has been undermined for decades. The nuclear powers never fulfilled their disarmament commitments. In the case of North Korea, He withdrew from the treaty In 2003, he performed his first nuclear test in 2006 and today could possess up to 50 eyelets. Israel, meanwhile, never formally joined, and maintains a unpacked arsenal. India, Pakistan and North Korea have stayed out or have been disconnected. In other words, the covenant has weakened by its own architecture that, although universal, is structurally vulnerable. Iran and North Korea. To all this, the professor of economics underlined Anthony Burke that Iran now has Two roads. The first would be to reconstruct its uranium enrichment capacity and acquire … Read more

The National Police has arrested Major Cibernarco in Europe in Barcelona. And he has left a video message for cybercriminals

A 30 -year -old German citizen coordinated from Barcelona the largest drug market in the Dark Web European Archetyp Market has been functioning as an online narcotic supermarket for more than five years. Now has been arrested by the National Police. Why is it important. This platform had achieved what few illegal markets achieve: scale, longevity and reputation. It has reached 612,000 registered users and 3,200 active vendors. It had become a key piece of European drug trafficking. The figures: The business volume has reached 250 million euros in transactions. The store has marketed 17,000 lots of narcotics, from heroin and fentanyl to cannabis and synthetic drugs. Payments were made exclusively in Moneroa cryptocurrency specially valued by its anonymity guarantee. In 2018 we count on Xataka How easy we found to access this type of marketswhere in addition to drugs we could find weapons or guns. In detail. The administrator, known as “Roger” and with multiple digital alias, directed a complex structure. The servers were located in the Netherlands. He operated from Catalonia.

Let’s explain How to copy fragments of a WhatsApp messageso that you do not have to copy it whole and then have to go erarating things if you only interest a part. It is like a second layer when copying a message, since you first have to highlight the entire message and then you can choose inside the part to copy. This is a function that is starting to arrive but it is not yet for everyone. We already have it enabled in WhatsApp for iPhone, but for Android it is not yet. Therefore, many users will have to wait or install the version WhatsApp beta To try to receive it before. Yes, this is something that you have been able to do on whatsapp web or in the application desktop versions, since you can select the text fragment directly with the mouse. However, the novelty is that a method is already beginning to reach the mobile. Copy only a part of the message on WhatsApp The first thing you have to do is enter the chat from which you want to extract a fragment of one of the messages that have been written. Once inside, hold the message from which you want to extract the fragment. That will make the complete message you have chosen be highlighted, and that the options to answer, forward etc. appear.

When something is selected, you will be able to copy it or share this fragment. In Xataka Basics | How to create Stickers on WhatsApp with your photos from the stickers section itself

Ukraine knocked a Russian Shahed drone and opened it. A hidden message has revealed Moscow’s advantage in electronic warfare

by

In Ukraine, the capture of enemy artillery has become a box of surprises. In November last year, a Dron Parody revealed to what the United States this In the conflict (without being physically). A few weeks ago, the interception of a Russian cruise missile by Ukraine was shocking: they had it Made the “Allies”. The latest: the capture of a Shahed carried a surprising hidden note. The air war intensifies. Already We counted yesterday. The Russian air offensive on Ukraine has reached a new level of brutality, with a last attack that exceeds the limits previously considered exceptional. Russia launched an unprecedented mass attack that included 298 drones and 69 missiles On one night, a record figure that has put the Ukrainian anti -aircraft defenses in check. Faced with the foreseeable failure of high the fire conversations, Ukraine is forced to ration your interceptorswhich implies that more and more Russian projectiles will achieve their goal, hitting cities, industries and civilians with increasing intensity. North Korean missiles and Iranian drones. In addition, since the beginning of the year, Russia has transformed its aerial campaign, focusing its efforts into ballistic missiles (many from North Korea) and in a new generation of Shahed drones of Iranian origin. These drones, like We have been countingnow they are in their sixth version and use automatic learning to attack highly defended areas such as kyiv, which has resulted in recent impacts in shopping centers, residential areas and military training fields. Plus: The speed of ballistic missiles makes them virtually impossible to intercept without the scarce and expensive PAC-3 missiles of the patriot system, which Ukraine has in insufficient number. For its part, the manufacturing rate of Shahed drones in Russia has grown exponentially: if 300 a month before, now that same amount is generated in less than three days. Filtered documents suggest that Kremlin plans to increase production Up to 500 drones dailywhich could lead to swarms of 1,000 drones in a single operation. Projection of a shahed Telegram and drones. Economist He counted exclusively An unprecedented fact. A finding within a Shahed drone demolished in Ukraine has revealed a worrying evolution in Moscow’s technological strategy: a note, allegedly left by a supportive sympathizer engineer, said that Russia is controlling its attack drones through bots in bots in The telegram messaging application. The reason? This method allows to send flight data and live broadcasts directly to human operators, eliminating GPS dependence and making them much more resistant to Electronic interference Ukraine. The implementation of AI, added to the use of Ukrainian mobile networks and possibly connections via Starlink, marks a qualitative leap in the lethality and autonomy of Russian drones, especially those most recent models of Shahed who use automatic learning to reach precision protected targets. A threat that does not yield. The response of the West, as we explained this week, has been to eliminate the red line of the “Long -range weapons” For Ukraine to defend himself. Ukrainian crews continue to break down about 95% Of the drones launched against kyiv, but that remaining 5% is enough to inflict devastating damage. Russian tactics have evolved: drones fly to low height to avoid being detected and then They ascend sharply at altitudes that exceed the scope of short -range weapons. To counteract it, Ukraine He resorted to F-16helicopters and even interceptor drones, but the defense against ballistic missiles remains the weakest point. Only a few countries have systems capable of stopping them, and the United States, which produces the Patriots and its PAC-3 interceptors, it has own strategic priorities. Time is exhausted. As We summarized yesterdaydespite its urgent need for more patriot batteries (Zelensky estimates that at least ten additional would be necessary to cover the territory), the US administration has adopted a warm posture. Under the pressure of other conflicts and the influence of the hard wing of the Republican party, which is prioritized, Ukraine has ceased to be a strategic priority. PAC-3 production will increase to 650 units annuallybut that is still insufficient in front of 500 ballistic missiles that Russia would already have stored, according to kyiv. In addition, each Russian missile usually requires two interceptors to be shot down, which accentuates the disadvantage. New doctrine. Perhaps the latest Ukrainian movements are understood. Given the shortage of media and the growing aerial threat, kyiv contemplates a turn in its survival strategy: not to intercept, but to go to destroy complexes launch, Russian factories and deposits. This more aggressive position, defended by Analysts like Kostiantyn Kryvolappart of the conviction that without a deterrence activates the rhythm of the attacks will only increase. While Western Defense Systems They arrive with droppers And their abilities will take At least one year In expanding, Ukraine prepares to face an air war alone every time more asymmetric and lethal. In that scenario, each drone or demolished missile can offer clues to combat the disadvantage. Image | Kyiv City State Administration In Xataka | The war in Ukraine had a red line of 70 kilometers.

Elon Musk shared a message that apologized to Stalin, Hitler and Mao. Then closed an office that nobody had heard

by

Elon Musk’s role in Donald Trump’s administration, at least the public nature, is to face To the cuts and expenses within the US government. In the last 48 hours there have been two circumstances that reflect The climate of a certain chaos that is breathed at the passage of the richest man on the planet. It all started when he shared a controversial message in X. Excuse Hitler. Last Friday morning, Musk shared in X a publication that claimed that Stalin, Hitler and Mao They were not directly responsible Of the millions of deaths that occurred under their regimes, but the guilt fell to public sector workers. Obviously, the post was received with an immediate reaction and generalized criticisms, being seen as a trivialization of genocides and an anti -Semitic narrative. Given the growing pressure, Musk eliminated the publication, but the damage already seemed done: historians, human rights organizations and thousands of users They condemned him for giving visibility to historical distortion. Political ties and affinity. The truth is that it was not the first time that Musk faced accusations for sharing or supporting controversial content on his network. Also, for example, supported an anti -Semitic postwhich led to a massive leakage of advertisers of the platform. In another case he generated controversy by suggesting that it was “strange” that no one would have tried Killer the former president Biden Oa Kamala Harris, shortly after the trump murder attempt in the elections. In addition, Musk has openly shown sympathy for Right and extreme right leaders worldwide. He has praised and backed figures such as Javier Milei (Argentina), Jair Bolsonaro (Brazil) and Narendra Modi (India), all leaders in countries where he has commercial interests. Recently, he even offered A platform to the ultra -rightist Alternative for Germany (AFD), organizing A Town Hall Online With your chancellor candidate. Unions and organizations in arms. No doubt, the apology message was perceived as an attack on public sector workers in the United States aligning with Musk’s rhetoric against the federal government. In recent months, he has accused public employees of hiding fraud and waste resources, encouraging that give up their positions. The Public Employee Union (AFSCME) strongly rejected the publicationarguing that public servants such as nurses, firefighters, teachers and librarians cannot be compared to genocides. In turn, the Anti -Diffamation League (ADL) described Musk’s action as “Disturbing and irresponsible”since it contributes to minimizing historical crimes and encouraging dangerous narratives. Musk defended himself alleging that his critics were the true allies of Nazism and suggested that there was a conspiracy against him. A strange dismissal. Shortly after, it was made public The last “cut” that has taken the firm of Musk. It all started last February 3When Musk published in X a message stating that 18F, an unknown office of the US government dedicated to technological services, it had “eliminated.” His tweet was an answer to A publication by Alex Lorussoa right -wing activist and producer of conservative influencer Benny Johnson, who falsely said that 18F was a group of extreme left in charge of making bureaucrats prepare the tax statements of citizens. What seemed like a harmless comment on social networks unleashed confusion and alarm within 18F, as we said, an unknown agency that works on technological projects to improve government efficiency and, paradoxically, to reduce costs. The employees did not know if the office had really been dissolved, what would happen to their ongoing projects and/or how to respond to other agencies that depended on their work. The definitive closure. As The Guardian told This weekend, already in March, weeks after Musk’s controversial tweet, 18F employees received an email at 1:00 am notifying them that they would be fired and that the office would close. The order came from the high levels of government and the administration of general services (GSA), the agency that supervised 18F. The official motive given by the government was that employee’s time costs They were too high and that hiring external consultants would be cheaper. However, 18F ex -women and GSA current employees pointed out that this explanation was false, since the office saved money by avoiding unnecessary contracts with private companies. Obvious, many suspect that the closure was A political decision promoted by Musk and its anti -government ideology. Disinformation. As in the case of the publication of the Defense to dictators18F is Another example of what seems like a recurring pattern in the way Musk handles X. Since he acquired the platform, he has used his influence to amplify messages from the radical right and attack government institutions. His tweet on 18F was an example of how misinformation in social networks can translate into real and harmful actions within the government. Lorusso, activist whose tweet Musk amplified, was A nearby collaborator of his political campaign and has worked as Consultant paid for your Super Pac. His post over 18F was denied by X itself, which clarified that the agency did not prepare taxes, but had developed a free platform in the shadow for citizens to They will present their statements without paying third parties. Hence, the disappearance of 18F seems to fit with the objective of Musk to dismantle state structures in favor of private solutions, even when the data shows that the agency saved money to taxpayersas he pointed out The Guardian. In addition, the danger of misinformation in media figures networks, where one day the story is modified by spreading dangerous narratives, and others end up closing offices with all their workers.

A message has sneaked into each and every corner of Tiktok outside its theme: “Pedro Sánchez resignation”

by

It doesn’t matter if they deal with politics or other issues that little (or nothing) have to do with what happens in Moncloa, Parliament or the Council of Ministers. For days in the networks, especially in Tiktokcan be seen with some frequency A message that is repeated again and again in the comments of the videos: “Sánchez resignation.” So common is that there are even Influencers talking already of the phenomenon. The big question is: where does it come from? What happened? The news advanced her A few days ago The ‘Public Mirror’ program, in Antena 3, but is going around Tiktok to confirm it. Throughout the last days two contents that have gained some visibility can be found on that platform, enough to be generating news. One are messages that They ask for resignation of the President of the Government, Pedro Sánchez. The second content is Influencers that They talk about thathow by surprise the comments to their pieces have been filled with resignation requests. Comments to a video by Dani.Valhalla on the subject. Rikomedy video about the trend, with comments with the same message. Ramontelli video with messages from “Sánchez resignation” in the comments. What exactly do they say? You can change the form, the exact words. The background no. In the messages the same idea is repeated basically: Sánchez’s resignation is requested. The curious thing is where they can be seen. They are from repeated form In comments from Videos that deal with The phenomenon; but also in others that have nothing to do with the president, the PSOE or the policy in general. Here For example there is an example in a piece of Ramontelli about music, here Another of Eufun Deibe and one more here of Peter Roadman in which we talk about the DGT and the latest statements of its general director. To a lesser extent, loose comments can also be seen in pieces of some of the main content creators in Spain, such as Ibai either Roro. There are even those who have created videos specifically for talk about, kidding either Find an explanation. And where does it come from? The million dollar question. A few days ago Ramontelli published A piece in which it relates the phenomenon to a user who began to repeat the request for resignation in different videos and generated a “snowball” effect. “It’s not a Botor anything. People I saw him and already put him in the rest of the videos, “he adds. In ‘Public Mirror’ the socialist Susana Díaz sees However “a against campaign to Sánchez.” And there is no lack of analysts who believe that the phenomenon responds to a “orchestrated” initiative by the opposition. “Almost none of this is casual.” Anita Hard video about the trend. Comments to a video of Albertosaurus dedicated to the trend. Josecafit video. Comments to a Peter Roadman post. And is that possible? What there is no doubt is that at least part of the opposition to Sánchez has taken advantage of the wave. In The same video from Ramontelli or in this other of Dani.Valhala A “Pedro Sánchez resignation can be found!” (capital letters are yours) written from the official Vox account in Tiktok. In This other Piece, which includes a parodic video, is a message in the same line published from the PP Madrid account. During an intervention in ‘Public Mirror’ Susana Díaz has even gone beyond When talking about “discredit techniques” driven by “people who are dedicating themselves to it in Spain.” And in other networks? In X the hashtag can be followed #Sánchezdimisionwith abundant publications in recent days. In YouTube There are also examples. The phenomenon arrives at a specific political moment, marked among other factors by Last agreements With Junts and The debate Around the increase in defense investment, which extends Beyond Spain and extends To the EU.

The huge ZTE stand in the MWC is a reminder that it is still alive under the radar. And it is also a message: they will return

by

This is my fifth time in the Mobile World Congress. The first four were between 2013 and 2016, and from all those editions I remember the imposing Zte stand well. They didn’t have then an especially relevant market share or a reputation that will justify so much space (At that time I dedicated myself to trying mobiles and I took a 3 a zte, the lowest note I have ever put), but its staging suggested otherwise. ZTEs set up show. Of the good, with thunderous music and a generous free bar of life -threw canapés for journalists in trouble, and also of the Chungo, resorting to hostesses with attire that made eyebrows arise even in an environment as little progressive as a global technological congress. His strategy seemed clear: to be noticed as it was. Nine years after my last MWC I have returned to the fair, and there is still Zte, with a stand As big as then. But something has changed, in addition to the fact that they already dress more elegant to their hostesses: the manufacturer has vanished from the Spanish market. Their phones no longer occupy space in the lines of the stores, they do not appear in any sales ranking and It is virtually impossible to cross one on the street. What has been of that Chinese giant who tried to conquer the West? Where has Zte got while we didn’t look? The perfect storm To understand the apparent disappearance of ZTE of the European panorama, it is necessary to go back to 2018, the year in which This manufacturer suffered an existential crisis. He Department of Commerce From the United States, he imposed a veto for the sale of US components to ZTE for seven years for violating a prior agreement related to sanctions to Iran and North Korea. The measure was devastating: Zte depended completely on Qualcomm chips and Google software among other American technologies. The company literally stopped its operations for three months, until it agreed to pay a fine of 1,000 million dollars, change its entire directive dome and submit to the supervision of an external committee designated by the US. It was a blow that never recovered completely in western marketsespecially because it coincided with the beginning of the commercial war between China and the United States. Touched and sunk. Unlike Huawei, which Betterly resisted geopolitical attacks, Zte was more vulnerable. With less resources and a much weaker brand positioning, they opted for a strategic withdrawal of the markets in which their profitability was compromised. A silent strategy The surprising thing is not that ZTE has disappeared – he has not done it – but that he has reconfigured his business completely … without making noise. He has pivoted from a global conquest strategy to a more selective and pragmatic approach: Geographical concentration. ZTE has reinforced his presence in markets where he had competitive advantages or privileged relationships: China, of course, but also Southeast Asian countries, the Middle East, Africa and some areas of Latin America. Focus change. Their smartphones were the most visible for the final consumer, but only represented one third of their income. The true ZTE nucleus was always the telecommunications infrastructure equipment, a much less visible but much more profitable B2B business. 5G specialization. ZTE has become one of the main world suppliers of equipment for 5G networks, competing directly with Huawei, Ericsson and Nokia. According to data from Dell’oro GroupZTE maintains approximately 10% of the global 5G infrastructure market. Zte not only survived the storm, but has grown, but otherwise different from the previous one. His income in 2024 was about 16,000 million euros. Far from the figures of the greats, but also far from the ghosts of bankruptcy. Invisible markets ZTE’s commercial map today is curious. They have opted strong for countries that do not usually appear in Western technological headlines: Mass bathroom of ZTE managers after announcing an agreement with the largest Turkish telecus. Another somewhat alien market for the western radar. Image: Xataka. This presence in “invisible markets” for Western radar Add contracts that are worth a lot of money although they impose so much on their Newsroom. While Europe and North America have progressively restricted the access of Chinese manufacturers to their critical networksthese other territories have received with open arms to the affordable alternatives to traditional suppliers. A silent industrial revolution Maybe ZTE’s most interesting turn has been towards industrial digitalization. Has developed solutions for “smart factories”digital mining, autonomous ports and intelligent energy networks. This market, much less sexy than that of smartphones but much more profitable for a brand like yours, has allowed Zte to grow under the average consumer radar. It is the silent metamorphosis of a manufacturer of Gadgets to an industrial technological provider. Contrary to what it may seem to us from Spain, ZTE continues to manufacture mobile. It maintains several product lines, including some names that are still familiar to us, such as the Axon series of high -end and the mid -range blade. They are sold mainly in China and emerging markets, where Google’s absence is a minor barrier. The intersection between telephony and gaming remains a constant in ZTE. Image: Xataka. It also maintains Nubia, a more innovation and design oriented submarket. The clouds Z50 and Redmagic 8 Pro (The latter focused on Gaming) They have had some reception in Asia, although they go completely unnoticed in Europe. At this fair his asset has been to announce A fairly reasonable folding for less than 1,000 eurosin addition to Hold the commitment to telephony Gamer. It is a calculated movement: they do not aspire to master the market, but to occupy specific niches where the benefits/price ratio can make them competitive. In product positioning, and in regional availability. ZTE’s strategy with his smartphones is clear: Do not compete where you can’t win. Why invest in marketing and distribution channels in Spain, where getting a 1% market share would cost millions, when that same … Read more

Article information Author, Anthony Zurcher Author’s title, BBC News 4 hours Less than a week after assuming the presidency, Donald Trump generated his first international tariff dispute. And the objective was not China, Mexico or Canada, frequent whites of its anger, but Colombia, one of the closest allies in the United States in South America. The crime of Colombia was to refuse to allow the landing of two American flights that transported deported migrants because they were military and non -civil planes. That seems to have been enough for Trump to release the hammer. “We will not allow the Colombian government to violate its legal obligations regarding the acceptance and return of the criminals who forced to enter the United States,” Trump published in his social media site. In addition to the 25% tariffs they offered to impose, Trump said that the United States would introduce a travel ban and would “immediately” revoke the visas to Colombian government officials, as well as their allies and supporters. At the last hours of Sunday, however, the Petro government announced that it had overcome the “Impasse“With the White House and declared that he would accept to receive migrants deported by the United States. During his first week in office, the US president seemed to prioritize migration executive measures over commercials, even if the latter were a key campaign promise. To emphasize that point, for the first time the president used tariffs to punish a country that, in his opinion, did not support the new hard line migratory policies of the United States. On a day when Trump had no planned public appearances (he is in his Miami resort, after having played golf in the morning), the president decided to give an example with Colombia. And with this, Trump is sending a warning to the allies and the adversaries of the United States equally: if they do not cooperate with the United States, the consequences will be severe. Image source, COURTESY OF THE WHITE HOUSE Photo foot, The White House published images of deported migrants in military aircraft. Work with other countries Although finally the Petro government accepted the terms of deportations after the president criticized his American counterpart in social networks, incoming officials have indicated that the United States immigration policy will require looking beyond the border with Mexico. The Trump candidate for Undersecretary of State, Christopher Landau, has long sustained that “working with other countries to stop those migratory flows” must be a “global imperative of US foreign policy.” However, Sunday’s dispute could make work together. Every year, tens of thousands of migrants from around the world, from India to China, go to the United States after landing in South America and traveling through the Darién cap, a key point in the north of the border with Colombia , and share with Panama. It is a dangerous trip, in which migrants usually face the presence of criminal gangs. Image source, Reuters Photo foot, The intersection of migrants for the Darién plug is a sensitive issue of discussion between Colombia and the US. United States retaliation measures could make Trump government work with Colombia on this issue. Petro alluded to this in his response to Trump’s actions, pointing out that if conversations about migration management through Darién are suspended, “illegal activities will increase.” These comments could be interpreted as an evening threat that more undocumented migrants will come. Petro hastened to say that his country would not reject the deported Colombian citizens of the United States, only that they should receive a “dignified treatment.” He even offered the use of his presidential plane as a means of alternative transport. However, the Colombian president was forced to accept the terms of deportations, after retracting in his position to respond to the United States with the implementation of tariffs similar to American products imported to Colombia. Although it was a Sunday of great drama, this sudden diplomatic confrontation was resolved. In any case, tariffs are proof of will. And Trump showed that this would be just his first movement.
