From drones to artificial intelligence, from humanoid robots to quantum technology, and from new energy vehicles to domestically produced large aircraft, China's technological development is making steady progress and new quality productive forces are accelerating in their formation. We look forward to humanoid robots playing an important role in more fields in the near future, contributing more to the development of human society.

Within the US “Indo-Pacific Strategy,” the Quad is viewed as a key mechanism for establishing a regional containment framework intended to limit China's peaceful development. However, for the other three Quad members—Japan, Australia, and India—the Quad functions more as a diplomatic tool to enhance their influence in regional affairs rather than being entirely subordinate to Washington's strategic agenda.

Trade deficits aren't someone else's fault. The essence of trade has always been equivalent exchange. From the ancient times, when people exchanged pottery for salt, transactions have been based on the willingness of both parties.

What's truly exciting is how coffee, now more than ever, serves as a bridge – a place where cultures meet and mix. The next time a New Yorker picks up a Luckin cup, maybe they'll notice a subtle, lingering finish reminiscent of Yunnan's distinctive teas, connecting two worlds in a single sip. @dinggangchina

By 2049, on the centenary of the founding of the People's Republic of China, we will see China as an advanced socialist nation. People will be there to enjoy a society that is democratic, civilized, harmonious, strong and modern.

In a world rife with geopolitical turbulence and cyclical politics, the CPC operates as China's anchor institution. The institutional strength of the CPC gives domestic and international stakeholders a rare commodity today: predictability.

Lai talks a lot about “defense,” which seems glamorous but is, in fact, hypocritical – packaging dangerous political mobilization in lies. The people on the island want peace, not war mobilization; they want stability, not armed conflict. Deception will eventually be exposed, and the truth will come to light. Lai's lecture on “defense” is nothing more than a massive scam wrapped in political packaging.

Fireworks account for only a tiny fraction of the enormous volume of goods traded annually between China and the US, yet they are closely tied to people's everyday lives and to major political events like the Independence Day – truly a small detail that reflects a bigger picture.

Pop Mart's success – evolving from niche art toys to a publicly listed giant – is a signal of China's expanding creative influence. No longer just the world's factory, China is now a major exporter of stories, symbols and aesthetic confidence.

Against the backdrop of Belt and Road Cooperation, Xinjiang is embracing openness and actively integrating into the new landscape of China–Central Asia cooperation. Looking ahead, Xinjiang is poised to play an increasingly important role in promoting the steady and long-term development of China–Central Asia cooperation, contributing to new and remarkable achievements.

Under pressure on both economic and security fronts, Japan and South Korea are demonstrating increased strategic independence. Deepening cooperation with China offers them a way to expand diplomatic options, safeguard economic interests, and hedge against the risk from the US.

While the rare earth issue in China-EU relations is currently a “hot” topic, if handled well, it need not be a flashpoint. Instead, it could become a “bond” that brings the two sides closer.

Pacific nations are not anyone's “natural allies,” nor are they “obligated” to reciprocate simply because of financial input. They have their own judgment and development priorities. Cooperation is never a zero-sum game. “Being seen” does not mean others must disappear. What the South Pacific needs is not a war of labels, but more development.

In order to untie the knot between the two sides of the Taiwan Straits and ultimately achieve peaceful reunification, a crucial step must be taken: breaking the DPP's long-standing brainwashing of the public. More people need to see through the truth behind the DPP's tactics, which have been carried forward since the days of Lee Teng-hui about 30 years ago.

Our principle is clear: All violations of the law will be investigated, and justice will be served — no matter how far the offenders have fled

This is not about who wins or loses but a test of humanity's respect for life, dignity and hope.

Lai's frantic antics have resulted in political chaos on the island; in fact, this is because he has deeply felt the unstoppable momentum toward reunification and is making a desperate struggle. The so-called “10 lectures on unity” is destined to become a failed one-man show.

It has been five years since the implementation of the Hong Kong National Security Law (NSL).

With its rising favorability in the world, we can observe positive interaction between China and the global community, the resonance of China's ideas, the wonderful charm of Chinese civilization and the increasingly broad Chinese path to modernization.

The five-year era of the implementation of the Hong Kong National Security Law marks a significant turning point, transitioning Hong Kong from a phase of social unrest and instability to one of restored order, governance reform and renewed development under the “One Country, Two Systems” framework.

Nepal can and should take advantage of this opportunity. Nepal can learn a great deal from Xizang's development models and technology applied since the topography, climate, culture and development challenges in the northern belt of Nepal are similar to those in Xizang.

Former Australian prime minister Paul Keating, respected for his exceptional ability to capture political essence in sharply concise observations, recently noted that China has built an economy, "with industrial breadth and depth that the US not only does not possess but cannot hope to emulate."

It is hoped that the US side will meet China halfway, fully implementing the important consensus and requirements from the June 5 phone call between the two heads of state, further leveraging the role of the China-US economic and trade consultation mechanism and bringing more positive expectations to the world.

The Middle East, a region scarred by decades of conflict, is once again teetering on the brink of catastrophe. As Gaza crumbles under Israeli bombardment and Iran faces escalating threats, US complicity in the bloodshed reveals a damning paradox at the heart of its global agenda.

The world looks forward to the SCO paving a new security path for the future of a multipolar world and economic globalization.

China has forged a "Chinese model" in the fight against drugs that can be emulated. This model is not only China's own way but also a part of the global drug control efforts.

Currently, the White House is filled with aggressive trade strategists, and it appears preoccupied with the trade deficit as though the US were a business, needing to make a dollar-profit on its international trade.

Lai turns the patriotic sentiments of the Taiwan people during the anti-Japanese movements into a tool for separatist propaganda.

Extending the CRVS Decade to 2030 is a declaration: Everyone counts. Data saves lives. Legal identity is a right, not a privilege.

Allocating 5 percent of GDP to military spending is a heavy burden for European countries, but it still falls far short of satisfying Washington's geopolitical appetite and will only make the US ask for more from Europe.

US arms groups are courting European partners to tap into the region's rising military spending.

South Korea and China, the central core countries of the global society, need to work closely together to maintain the banner of free trade and fair competition, which are essential for the sustainable shared prosperity of the global community.

Marking the 80th anniversary of the war's end is not a demand for privileged status on the world stage.

The emergence of China-Bangladesh-Pakistan cooperation marks a new phase in regional cooperation in South Asia.

Lai's performance of advocating division under the guise of so-called unity is destined to go against the trend and history.

The high-level commemorations of this victory demonstrate China's role as a stabilizing force for world peace.

The 9th China-South Asia Expo, held in Kunming, Southwest China's Yunnan Province, concluded on Tuesday. How does the expo boost cooperation among regional stakeholders?

As turbulence clouds the global landscape and many question the future of globalization, the ever-growing China-Singapore relationship steadily charts a promising path forward.

Lai's desperate attempt to promote “unity” ironically reflects the DPP authorities' loss of the public's support and moral legitimacy.

The US' attempt to sever the supply chain through administrative means is gradually being undermined by the dual forces of market dynamics and technological progress.

The hard truth is that an alliance profiting from arms sales needs conflict zones - making NATO not a deterrent, but a designer of chaos.

We must remember that diplomacy is not weakness. It is civilization. Abandoning it is a regression to a world ruled by fear, not reason.

China's planning has become more flexible, and, to a considerable degree, it is indicative rather than prescriptive.

Hopefully, the parties involved, especially Israel, will implement an immediate cease-fire, ensure the safety of civilians and open dialogue and negotiation to restore peace and stability in the region.

The fentanyl crisis claims tens of thousands of American lives annually - a more direct and deadly threat than any external danger. As one of the world's wealthiest nations, the US' struggle to protect its citizens from drug harm deserves weighty introspection.

By bombing Iranian nuclear facilities, the US is destroying the fragile peace in the region.

Looking forward, South Korea-Japan relations may increasingly resemble what Lee has described as "neighbors sharing a front yard" - maintaining necessary cooperation while managing their differences.

The Europeans were caught unprepared by this sudden shift in American grand strategy. They have so far not yet been able to develop a coherent and credible strategic posture to deal with these new realities.

For much of the 20th century, the US persuaded the world that open, rules-based trade was good. Yet today Washington invokes a catch-all claim of “national security” to justify tariffs, export bans, and sanctions that make commerce resemble trench warfare.

The EU cannot focus solely on its own demands while ignoring China's legitimate concerns. That is not the right way to engage with China.

The Pandora's box of US tariffs will not be closed through appeasement.

With instability in the Middle East, achieving global peace is difficult. Efforts by all parties to promote a ceasefire and negotiations are not only necessary for the Middle East but also essential for global peace and stability.

What Australia needs is a more independent security strategy that does not rely on any major power and is based on its own geopolitical realities.

China isn't interested in an arms race or global dominance. The J-35 isn't designed or built to intimidate the world; rather, it represents China's promise – a commitment to help safeguard peace at home and abroad.

The China–New Zealand relationship – defined by innovation, inclusiveness and rational engagement – provides references on how countries with different systems and sizes can engage in healthy interaction, proving that confrontation is not inevitable.

I've lived 28 years in the US and over 30 years in China. I love the people of both countries. And because I understand both, I can say with certainty: Pragmatic, unemotional cooperation is in the best interest of both sides going forward.

As a country with special influence over Israel, the US should particularly adopt an objective and impartial stance, take due responsibility, and play a positive and constructive role in de-escalating tensions and preventing the conflict from further expanding.

A country's contribution to open source, or any broader scientific effort, should never be judged by what passport it holds.

The China-Central Asia Summit is a new mechanism of partnerships that refers to innovative approaches to collaboration between countries, moving beyond traditional models. This new mechanism emphasizes shared goals, clear roles and mutual benefits, fostering more dynamic and effective collaborations between China and Central Asian countries: Kyrgyz scholar

According to a report by the website of NPR, data compiled by the Bipartisan Policy Center from the US Department of the Treasury shows that in the first five months of this year, federal revenue from tariffs and excise taxes increased by 78 percent compared to the same period last year, with most of the additional revenue collected in April and May. Although this may appear to reflect the success of the Trump administration's tariff policies in supposedly “making America more prosperous,” the reality is that the increased tariff revenue has not been paid by foreign countries, but has come out of the pockets of American businesses and consumers.

The universality of Western development trajectories is called into question, and none of the G7 group members can now credibly position themselves as an envied and respected modernization model to be followed and imitated by other nations.

The strengthening of aircraft carrier forces does not only enhance China's naval power, but also improves China's ability and willingness to provide maritime public goods. This enhancement brings hope to a world that is increasingly threatened by regional turmoil and eager for peace and prosperity.

We believe that, with careful nurturing from both sides, the pomegranate tree of China-Central Asia cooperation will surely grow into a towering tree of peaceful development and win-win cooperation in the soil of mutual trust.

The adoption of this resolution constitutes a collective rebuke of the rampant abuse of unilateral coercive measures. Hopefully, the establishment of this day lights a road sign for a new era where balance and fairness can guide global relations.

If I were asked here in the US what we can learn from China, I would explain to people that we need a government with a budget organized to use that budget to do the things we need but no one is doing because they aren't privately profitable: US economist Richard Wolff

Ultimately, the China-Central Asia relationship is about co-creation, not domination, and should be evaluated on its tangible outcomes, not on external narratives: Kazakh scholar

The security concerns of Middle Eastern countries need to be addressed, and military force cannot bring peace to the region. This is a common consensus in the international community, including China.

Africa is not a spectator at a tennis match, but an essential runner in the Global South – sprinting alongside China in a development relay that belongs to itself.

Russian and Chinese scholars should work together to correct the historiography of WWII, which will help us fight attempts to falsify this war: Russian scholar

China and Central Asia are united by pragmatism, a desire for stability and a common rejection of a world divided into “blocs and fronts.” In the face of global turbulence, they are not betting on a struggle for dominance, but on mutual development and autonomous policies.

It is the first time that the China-Central Asia Summit will be held in a Central Asian country, marking “the beginning of a golden era of regional cooperation” and “another milestone in China-Central Asia cooperation.”

China welcomes exchanges that enhance mutual understanding and improve human rights conditions for all citizens. However, we reject approaches that politicize human rights issues or apply double standards. The path to genuine progress lies in respecting each country's sovereignty and development choices, while engaging in constructive dialogue based on facts rather than prejudice.

“Following a good blueprint” involves taking a strategic and integrated approach to achieve consistent and cumulative results at each stage of the work.

China's total trade with the five Central Asian countries grew by 10.4% year-on-year in the first five months this year to reach 286.42 billion yuan ($39.93 billion), setting a new record compared with corresponding periods in the previous years, according to data released by China's General Administration of Customs (GAC) on Sunday.

As unrest erupts across the US, scenes once praised as a “beautiful sight” in Hong Kong now unfold at home. Double standards raise serious questions: Is protest noble only abroad? Democracy must begin with consistency and self-reflection

China's diplomatic approach – grounded in mutual respect, peaceful cooperation and long-term partnership – aligns well with the values and aspirations of Central Asian countries. China's steady and consistent engagement is a reassuring and constructive force in the region, says Turkmen scholar

Like Alea der Bescheidene, lead singer of the German band Saltatio Mortis, who recently announced his arrival at the Shaolin Temple in China for a seclusion retreat, and French NBA star Victor Wembanyama who in recent days also settled for some off-season spiritual peace and strength at the same place, many young people in Europe and the US are showing a sincere and growing interest in Chinese culture. This interest goes far beyond a passing trend; it reflects a deep curiosity and respect for a civilization that is both ancient and continually evolving.

History tells us that whenever the US actively and enthusiastically offers "help" - even footing the bill for so-called "development" - it's rarely a good sign.

Yiwu has become a prime window for observing the resilience of China's private economy and the ingenuity of economic globalization.

The tide of civil exchanges between the two sides of the Straits is rolling forward relentlessly.

If the US abandons AUKUS, Australia's chances of obtaining submarines will remain unchanged – they were very unlikely to receive any anyway.

Five nations and the EU urge the US not to impose new airplane tariffs

The authority of the resolution is unshakeable.

Labeling American politicians like Pelosi as practitioners of “double standards” is actually an understatement. A closer look at their shifting positions and past statements reveals a simple and clear standard behind their actions: self-interest.

The pragmatic approach means that rather than pursuing balanced diplomacy between China and the US, South Korea will pursue a more prudent foreign policy and secure practical benefits from the standpoint of its national interests.

From Geneva to London, the international community expects China and the US to move in the right direction toward resolving issues and to take new steps to properly manage differences, deepen mutual trust, and advance win-win cooperation.

The reason China can offer high-quality EVs at affordable prices is because of genuine technological progress. Their popularity, especially in the Global South, is the clearest and strongest rebuttal to the Western smear campaign.

“Suppose you only see Huawei's technological innovation and fail to recognize the large number of unsung basic science researchers behind it. How can you make a correct judgment about Huawei's pursuits?”: @dinggangchina

The US, as the world's dominant power over the past few decades, could have – and should have – shaped a different global landscape than the one we witness today.

A growing number of people in the West are beginning to realize that the claims of so-called genocide or cultural eradication are unfounded.

The US' current stance, which deviates from the principles of sustainable development, not only runs counter to broad consensus of the international community on issues such as ocean protection, but also hinders global efforts to address environmental challenges.

China's leapfrog progress has never been based on momentary passion, but on tireless efforts to reach long-term goals.

The Global Times invited scholars both at home and abroad to discuss the conveniences brought by China's continuously improving entry policies and their broader significance.

The dialogue among civilizations carries profound significance for our times and for the world at large.

The establishment of the International Day for Dialogue among Civilizations is not only a starting point, but also a relay that invites every civilization to join the dialogue.

In today's China, respect for talents and esteem for knowledge represent the mainstream value of society.

China opens, the US closes.

Under Lee's leadership, South Korea faces both opportunities and challenges in economic reform and international cooperation.

In the context of a complex and evolving global landscape, Japan should have a clear understanding of its own national interests and must not retreat from working with other countries to resist protectionism.

The Global Times invited three experts to share their insights on the 50th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and the Philippines.

China and the EU have no fundamental conflicts of interest or geopolitical contradictions; they are partners for mutual success.

The actions of American companies demonstrate that economic rationality is prevailing and supports strategic patience. Their confidence in the Chinese economy, expectations for China-US cooperation and belief that economic logic will ultimately triumph are all reflected in their decision not to relocate production back to the US.

Amid political and media-driven narratives of a “China threat” and “China-US confrontation,” renowned US economist Richard Wolff contrasts the profit-driven American model with China's socialist market economy.

No matter how the times may change, it's expected that Myanmar and China will remain “Paukphaw” committed to closer cooperation across various fields based on mutual trust and understanding, said a Myanmar scholar on the 75th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and Myanmar.

The election of Lee Jae-myung as South Korea's new president marks a major shift in the country's political landscape and will also have implications for the geopolitical dynamics of East Asia. Upon taking office, Lee will need to prioritize addressing the tariff pressures and security challenges posed by the current US government. How his “national interest-centered pragmatic diplomacy” reshapes the South Korea-US alliance will test his leadership.

China and the US have significant international responsibilities, extensive common interests and vast areas for cooperation. A sound and stable China-US relationship is a cornerstone of global peace and prosperity.

Starting from collaborative moments like the defense of “Equality-On-Sea,” we have every reason to believe that building a community with a shared future in cyberspace is not an unattainable dream. The seeds of friendship sown in digital spaces will one day blossom into real-world peace and cooperation.

We wish every candidate the best in showcasing their abilities, and may the fair sunlight illuminate the path of every dreamer.

Today, China has built the world's largest and fastest-growing renewable energy system and the most complete new energy industrial chain. It contributes a quarter of the world's new green areas.

It is a blueprint for war with Russia - and who knows who else? It would be neither Britain's war, nor NATO's, but a proxy war being fought by them for the US.

History never stands still, and cars often need to shift gears when moving forward. China and the West must find their own paths in this new era of diverse innovation.

China and regional countries should jointly cherish the hard-won peaceful and stable situation, resolve differences through dialogue and consultation, and firmly say no to the US attempts to create chaos and confrontation, ensuring that Asia remains a peaceful and stable continent.

Under Lee's pragmatic approach, China-South Korea relations are expected to develop into a multidimensional pattern characterized by political manageability, economic recovery and the resumption of people-to-people exchanges.

US vetoes Security Council resolution on the situation in Gaza

China's sincerity and goodwill toward the development of China-South Korea relations remain unchanged, even in the face of difficulties in the bilateral relationship.

The world must not let itself be dragged along by the logic behind the US pursuit of a "poison pill" clause.

Headquartering the IOMed in Hong Kong is a symbolic confirmation that this new global international institution will be guided by the principles of justice, truth and equality for all parties, free of double standards or political bias.

Despite the ambitious nuclear power support policies introduced by the US, the plan to develop civil nuclear energy through a high-stakes approach faces multiple challenges.

Such attempts to create public pressure on China through media manipulation are, in themselves, a violation of the Geneva consensus.

There has been an incredible level of volatility and unpredictability, and frankly, inconsistency in US policy, particularly US trade policy. It's absolutely erratic. It's chaotic: US expert David Firestein

The ambitious goal to host more than 400 million annual visits by 2030 is a microcosm of Xinjiang's high-quality development and a testament to its continuous efforts toward opening-up. In the future, the booming “Xinjiang Travel” trend will open a window for the world to better understand the truth about Xinjiang.

I think a lot of people would lose their jobs if we are going against the globalized economy, said Ramon van Meer, a small business owner in the US

Canada will need to reorient its focus not to embattled Europe but to China, which shines as a beacon of stability, predictability, and opportunity and features key complementarities with the Canadian economy on energy and food exports and clean technology imports.

The emergence of HarmonyOS challenges Windows but also motivates Windows to keep upgrading and opening up. Of course, it is also a warning to those who want to use hegemonic tactics to gain a technological monopol.

I'm not arguing from China's position, I'm arguing from a sovereign Australian position – who wants our country to be safe, secure and prosperous, and that requires having good relations with all of our neighbors, especially our biggest neighbor and best trading partner, China.

Ultimately, the region's long-term stability will hinge on whether these powers support inclusive, cooperative security frameworks - rather than perpetuating zero-sum competition.

Challenges may vary, but the solution remains the same.

This is not just a small step for facilitating international travel, but a big step toward building a more inclusive, interconnected, and multipolar world.

In today's rapidly evolving world, artificial intelligence (AI) is no longer a futuristic concept, it is a part of everyday life, transforming how we learn, teach, and even manage our mental health.

Though the smoke of war has long dissipated, the roots of conflict have not been eradicated. Hegemonism, cold war mentality and power politics still persist.

China's rising global favorability is no coincidence. It is the natural result of decades of dedicated hard work and peaceful development.

China has always viewed Europe as an equal partner.

Of the 75 years of diplomatic relations, the Indonesia-China Comprehensive Strategic Partnership (ICCSP), established in 2013, perhaps marks the period of the most significant historical leaps, which have left many stunned.

By building the IOMed, taking on the role of transferring international capital and talents, and focusing on enhancing the attractiveness of Hong Kong as an international metropolis, the city can seize the opportunities and ride the waves to secure a prosperous future for itself and for the country as a whole.

Science and technology know no borders — they can bring benefits to the entire world and help address global challenges. China has consistently emphasized contributing to the world through “Chinese wisdom” and “Chinese solutions,” and it has put this philosophy into practice. There is no doubt that the path China is taking — one that respects the idea that science and technology respond to the call of the times and have a global impact — is the right path for today's world.

On May 30, the signing ceremony of the Convention on the Establishment of the International Organization for Mediation (IOMed) was held in Hong Kong. Senior representatives from 85 countries and nearly 20 international organizations gathered in the city, and 33 countries signed the convention on the scene and became founding member states. As the world's first intergovernmental organization dedicated to resolving international disputes through mediation, the IOMed provides a new platform for mediating disputes between countries, disputes over investment between the state and the people of other countries, and international commercial disputes.

The cost of this political bullying is also enormous: It sows the seeds of anti-China sentiment and xenophobia in the US, undermines the foundation of global academic cooperation, and ultimately will backfire on the US itself.

The hype surrounding China's “debt trap diplomacy” reflects the anxiety and bias of Western think tanks when confronted with China's rise and South-South cooperation. They would rather sensationalize “debt crises” than acknowledge the positive contributions of Chinese investment to the modernization processes of developing countries.

As China steps more firmly into the deep seas and open oceans, its interactions with the PICs will only grow. This not only makes the future of China's relations with PICs all the more promising, but also continuously injects momentum into the rising tide of development across the Global South.

National interests are paramount. Core national interests, in particular, must be defended and upheld even at the cost of blood and life.

It is believed that the three parties will unite to generate tremendous strength, bringing a more prosperous and stable development outlook for the region and the world, injecting continuous positive energy into the cause of world peace and development, and providing lasting momentum for the building of a community with a shared future for mankind.

As tensions in the South China Sea persist, the Philippines is once again showcasing its two-faced strategy of "saying one thing and doing another." As Manila appears to treat peace as a bargaining chip and provocation as routine behavior, one has to question its political calculations and sincerity in seeking peace.

The US stops scheduling visa interviews for foreign students , moving toward isolationism.

The signing ceremony, to be held at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre will not only witness the birth of a new international institution but will also witness the opening of the door to an equal, orderly, and multipolar world by a civilization key to building a community with a shared future for mankind.

Macron's Southeast Asia trip is more systematically strategic, aiming to establish the region as a key area in France's Indo-Pacific Strategy. Can France move beyond "Eurocentrism," grasp the region's strategic rhythm and meet its real needs?

With the right investments, the right partners and enough time, India could absolutely become a world-class manufacturing base – not just for Apple, but for the broader tech industry. But for now, the world's most iconic product may bear a new label, but the soul of the iPhone – the circuitry, the supply chain, the silent efficiency – still resides in China.

Whether the Port of Darwin becomes a hub of prosperous trade or the eye of a geopolitical storm is not a difficult choice, but it does test Canberra's strategic wisdom.

South Korea's domestic politics must not come at the cost of the safety and dignity of Chinese residents. These individuals are lawful residents, a bridge between the two countries, and a part of Korea's diverse society. They shouldn't be anyone's scapegoat.

The EU approaches negotiations with the US as an ally, but the US treats Europe as a competitor.

The inaugural ASEAN-GCC-China Summit holds great significance. It advances a cooperative framework aimed at stabilizing a fragmented global economic order and provides momentum for the ongoing transformation of international institutions to more accurately reflect the interests and aspirations of the Global South.

A strategy built on technological hegemony and unilateralism is bound to have serious negative consequences for global tech cooperation and innovation. The US' carrot-and-stick approach to AI chip diplomacy is unsustainable – and could ultimately backfire on the US itself.

The summit sends a clear message to the world: The Global South is no longer a passive recipient of the international order, but an active builder and reformer. This emerging order is not founded on military deterrence, but on shared development; not sustained by bloc politics, but nurtured by mutual benefit and cooperation.

The core of China-US competition has reached a critical inflection point. Initially, the US leveraged technological advantages to systematically constrain China's upgrade trajectory, while China endured pressure and weathered impacts. Through synchronized advancement in policy, capital, and technology, China has broken through the targeted blockade ceiling, actively seeking innovative breakthroughs.

The decision to bar Harvard from enrolling international students is both myopic and self-destructive. It inflicts immediate harm on Harvard and long-term damage on the entire American higher education system.

As forces committed to addressing global public issues through multilateral cooperation and resolving interstate disputes in a peaceful and just manner, China and European countries must work together to restore the authority of multilateral mechanisms.

America must accept that it's not the No.1 country in the world – that it's just one among several large and powerful countries, including China. It needs the courage not just to accept a rising China, but to gradually shed the role of world policeman – because it can no longer manage that task, says a US scholar.

No matter how the organizers try to rebrand it, it could not deny the fact that the "Enhanced Games" represent a blatant stain on the spirit of sport, a direct challenge to global athletic norms, as well as a threat to the ethical values of human society.

When it comes to China, not only is there no unified stance among G7 members, but even the language used to mention China publicly was carefully crafted to avoid deepening internal divisions.

China's development is a process of never being complacent and continuing to strive. Maintaining strategic focus and concentrating on managing its own affairs well, China's development has always been moving forward steadily and injecting continuous impetus into world prosperity.

Three interesting things happened in the past two days regarding the South China Sea issue: a US-Philippines joint military exercise, a China-US fiery UN debate, and a US misfired social media campaign. These threads – military, diplomatic and public opinion – weave a tapestry of US strategy that is as audacious as it is precarious.

By negotiating with the US on an equal footing and securing tangible results, China will set the benchmark for Europe's and Japan's own negotiations with Washington, says a Japanese scholar

The hypocrisy and logical fallacies against China are absurd. China's resolve in the US-led tariff war is simply a reflection of Chinese people defending their sovereignty and right to development, for themselves and for the world.

To those who spread falsehoods – often without ever having set foot in Xizang – I would simply say: go see for yourself, listen, ask questions, challenge your own certainties. This is not about denying tensions or contradictions; it's about striving for a more grounded and complex understanding.

In the high-tech arena, success cannot be achieved by “tripping” others. Fair competition, open cooperation and mutual benefit are the right way to move forward.

No matter how much the US tries to resist, its unipolar moment is gone. What today's global governance needs is equality, not hegemony; it needs mutual respect and equal footing, not arbitrary treaty-breaking, or coercing more countries to follow suit; it needs cooperation, not putting a single country's interest first.

Today, Russia and China together continue to uphold values that are important for all humanity, and maintain that global security can only be achieved through fair principles of global governance.

Photographers can help by showing these real stories and encouraging people, both foreigners and Chinese, to see the real China for themselves.

We advise Lai and the DPP authorities to prioritize the welfare of the people on the island, thoroughly recognize the realities and trends in the Taiwan Straits, cease any provocative actions or rhetoric seeking “independence,” and stop pursuing the wrong path.

America's technological bullying exposes the weak nature of its hegemonic mindset. History has proven that those countries obsessed with hegemony will ultimately discover that blocking others will only leave themselves with no way forward.

Efforts to resurrect outdated Cold War narratives will find little traction among Latin American societies, and anti-China myths are destined to wither – not merely because they are built on blatant falsehoods, but because they fail entirely to address the region's genuine needs and development aspirations.

Both China and ASEAN countries have the need to strengthen military exchanges. These exercises demonstrate the efforts of China and ASEAN to jointly maintain regional peace and stability. The US should not always look at them through tinted glasses.

China is willing to work with India to enhance mutual trust, manage differences, and expand cooperation on the basis of mutual respect and equal consultation.

The current lack of US grand strategists reflects an institutional “inability to think” in today's US. Since the end of the Cold War, the US seems to find itself constantly oscillating between strategic hubris and strategic confusion.

Today, Taiwan stands at a historic crossroads. Whether it continues to be hijacked by a “frightened bird” like Lai and heads toward disaster, or chooses to embrace peace, is a question that all people on the island of Taiwan must seriously consider.

China's artifacts repatriation demonstrates a shared commitment to international norms governing cultural property's lawful return and protection. The reacquisition of the silk manuscripts could mark a turning point in the desire for colonial powers to restore looted goods to their rightful owners.

US enterprises are feeling the impact of the trade war initiated by the US administration, and some of the tariffs are ultimately being passed on to consumers, causing economic pain.

Commemorating the WWII victory carries special significance in demonstrating China's commitment to maintaining world peace and opposing war.

China will always embrace the world with an open heart, contribute Chinese wisdom to global technological development, and provide a solid technological foundation for maintaining world peace and development.

The successful repatriation of the silk manuscripts and other Chinese cultural relics is a positive example of China-US cultural exchanges and offers a model of cooperation for more inclusive global cultural governance.

In an age of uncertainty, Xi's macro-historical perspective serves as a beacon: The past may not determine the future, but understanding it is essential for shaping it wisely.

China has been on the right side of history, because if it weren't, the humanity as a whole would not have been on the right side of history either.

The moves by South Africa and CELAC countries show the hollowness of its so- called “international space.” An increasing number of countries have demonstrated through practical actions that maintaining non-offi cial rela- tions with the Taiwan region must strictly adhere to the one- China principle.
