Embracing the icy crisp winter air, warming your hands with the Starbucks,

wrapping up in snugly layers upon layers.

The signs are all there.

You're entering your cozy era.

And there's nothing cozier than the limited edition Starbuckle oat latte.

A new smooth and warming twist on a classic.

Whatever era you're in, find your perfect order in store on Starbucks

delivers and the Starbucks UK app, subject to availability while stocks last. I'm John Dachshoo with my colleague Professor Avignellis of the U.S. Army War College,

Strategic Studies Institute, the New World Report, China, I go to a headline in the F.T. that tells a story

of China changing its emphasis in the Americas. China shifts Latin American investment

to compete with the West.

Beijing Pivots goes the FT subhead.

Pivots away from costly infrastructure

to focus on technology, renewables, and critical materials.

Professor China's been boasting of how it's building a mega port

for Belton Road in Peru, but now it's moving

towards what you'd have to say is resource access throughout the

Americas in other words give us your lithium. Does this make a profound difference

throughout the Americas? I noted there's a photograph of

Wang Yi smilingly greeting the foreign minister of Brazil.

Does China have a positive image in the Americas.

Thank you.
