China is not only a participant and beneficiary of global industrial and supply chain cooperation, but also a firm defender and builder. This point will become increasingly evident in the future, and China's significance in the global industrial and supply chains will also continue to grow.
As a mature country, Vietnam should develop independent and autonomous diplomacy, rejecting the influence and manipulation of major powers.
It is worth noting that the meeting created a positive atmosphere, which is of special significance at a time when mutual suspicion deepens in China-US relations and people-to-people exchanges wane.
After believing this myth your whole life, then the truth suddenly dawns on you: that the American dream is just that - a dream.
Amid the war in the Gaza Strip, all the forces are trying hard to hold things together. In particular, China's independent and impartial position makes it an ideal mediator.
In the process of overcoming Argentina's difficulties, the logic and interests of the Milei team and the Argentine people in developing relations with countries like China and Brazil are aligned.
The latest development of China-US ties, including what happened in the South China Sea is an epitome of China-US game in the new era: If the US wants to talk, the door is open.
The Australia-Philippines action could be perceived as being aggressive, assertive or even threatening. One thing is certain, it contributes to tensions rather than helps Australia quell those burning embers of the previous government's arson.
We look forward to the new coalition government in Wellington not only steering the Land of the Long White Cloud “back on the track.”
We need an intellectual revolution that embraces all the world and its histories rather than a narrowly Western story.

China has made it clear that its primary value added to developing countries is going to be trade and infrastructure. The US is in a very different position.
The core demand of the PVV is to hold a nationwide referendum on the Netherlands' EU withdrawal. The victory of the far-right political party in this election serves as a strong demonstration effect for upcoming elections in other Central European countries.
The reasons for this is the unwillingness of the US-led West to recognize the changed reality and accept the multipolar world model.
The US uses lies to manipulate global public opinion
For fiercely competitive Chinese internet companies, those who will become the first to solve the issue of foreign language support may make the most of opportunities in China's high-level opening-up.
When the damaging policies continued and the economic pain became more and more obvious, the economic ruling elites in the US and Australia let their views be known: articulating very clearly for the ears of government leaders. Enough is enough, they said. Change policy or you are out.

During the recent summit between Chinese President Xi Jinping and US President Joe Biden in San Francisco, the two leaders exchanged in-depth views on various topics. One such topic was the Taiwan question that concerns the Chinese people on both sides of the Taiwan Straits.
According to Reuters, US authorities "thwarted a plot to kill a Sikh separatist in the US and issued a warning to India," a senior Biden administration official said. Currently, the US Department of Justice and the Federal Bureau of Investigation have declined to comment on the assassination plot that took place on US soil. However, experts believe that the US will not harshly accuse India in order to maintain its goal of aligning with India against China in the Indo-Pacific region.
To push for an overall improvement in China-Japan relations, the key lies in the Japanese side to show more goodwill toward China and take more practical actions, so that to gain the respect and trust of Chinese society. Although this is difficult, it is a historic opportunity for the Komeito Party, just like what Ikeda did during his lifetime.
On Monday, US Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin visited the Ukrainian capital, Kyiv. While announcing a new US aid package, Austin also mentioned China, stating that if Russia is successful in Ukraine, China will be emboldened to use military force to expand its territory in the Indo-Pacific.
Will the newly elected president, Javier Milei, known as "Argentina's Trump," stop his country's engagement with China? I want to say that it is a fantasy. Many "grand promises" in Western-style elections should not be taken seriously.
When the truth finally emerged about the two Michaels affair, three things happened. The first was that Canada was exposed as having lied about it, consistently, and for years.
The 2023 China-Africa Deans of Education Forum was held in Beijing on November 15.
The US and the Philippines have started joint air and sea patrols in the South China Sea, the latest efforts to strengthen military cooperation amid growing tension with China.

China has the ability to continue to promote the BRI and safeguard the interests of participating countries, contrary to what the West, particularly the US, claims to be a "debt trap."
The serious marginalization of the Palestinian issue in recent years is one of the root causes of this round of Palestinian-Israeli conflict, and the BRICS countries' special approach to highlighting their concern for the Palestinian issue will help to promote the international community's prioritization of this issue on the international agenda and to create the conditions for a comprehensive and just settlement. We hope that the Western countries and the BRICS countries will work together to cool down the Palestinian-Israeli situation and make concrete efforts for peace and development.
Australia has accused the Chinese navy of “dangerous, unsafe and unprofessional” conduct after an incident in international waters near Japan.

Currently, geopolitical tensions and confrontations are driving the world into a period of turbulent transformation.
The recent meeting between Chinese President Xi Jinping and US President Joe Biden in San Francisco was their first meeting in one year. It was also Xi's first visit to the US in six years.
The China-US relationship was, in my view, relatively positive until COVID-19 hit the US and former president Donald Trump made a tactical decision to pivot away from his poor handling of COVID-19 and distract everybody by focusing on China as the "enemy."
China is an active participant in the global fight against climate change and a firm supporter of humanitarian relief.
This year's Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) Economic Leaders' Informal Dialogue, hosted by the US, has received a relatively unanimous positive assessment from APEC economies and the broader international community.
It is gratifying if the relations between the two East Asian neighboring countries will really be reconciled completely. But there is a fear that Seoul seems to have a romanticized illusion about Tokyo.
The direction of China-US relations has already been clarified in terms of efforts to ease, stabilize and restore the relationship. We hope it will stop falling and stabilize, not regressing or continuing to spiral downward.
The US has approved a $2.35 billion sale of 400 Tomahawk missiles to Japan, as Tokyo seeks to bolster its defenses against China's growing military power.
What is the relationship between Ursula von der Leyen's advocates and the EU's pursuit of its China policy in terms of its "surface" and "essence"?
US President Joe Biden likes baseball, and that means he knows that when a batter gets his pitch – the ball can be hit a long way – he shouldn't miss.
The President's decision to allow the US to have use of Philippine military bases is very dangerous because it could drag the Philippines into an armed conflict where we have no national interest to espouse, says former Philippine presidential spokesperson Harry Roque.
Today and in the future, China's approach toward Japan needs to have a new dimension, one that serves China's current and future national interests.
Japan should take more concrete actions and meet China halfway. This is not only in the long-term interests of both China and Japan, but also crucial for Japan's national reputation.
The San Francisco meeting marks a new starting point for China-US relations in a new historical period. It has had a good beginning, and China and the US have begun to promote dialogue and cooperation in various fields such as diplomacy, economy and trade, culture, education, science and technology, agriculture, military, law enforcement, and artificial intelligence. We should make the cooperation list longer and the pie of cooperation bigger.
The resolution constitutes an initial step toward a cease-fire and sends a clear message that the international community strongly opposes all actions suspected of violating the legitimate rights of women, children, and civilians, and contravening international humanitarian law.
The US is showing its hypocrisy in terms of funding Kiev in the Russia-Ukraine conflict.
The popularity of Tanghulu in South Korea is not just a "note" in the rhythm of trends, but also has deeper social background, which also gives us some inspiration.
In order to maximize the satisfaction of the economic and social development demands of its people, the Muizzu government will likely strive to maintain equidistant diplomacy among major countries, which will create opportunities for the stable and positive development of China-Maldives relations.
We look forward to the US side meeting the Chinese side halfway, and hope that as the host country of the APEC meetings, the US could cherish and make good use of this opportunity to promote China-US relations to return to a healthy and stable development track, and make the necessary contributions as a major country to the peace, stability, and prosperity of the Asia-Pacific region.
Promoting stability in the China-US relationship will bring strategic certainty and constructive development for the well-being of both countries, which is inherently positive. Those who attempt to distort this positive development into something negative will find it difficult to convince the public.
China has achieved remarkable success in fighting pollution and protecting the environment. It has particularly gained valuable experiences in curbing hazardous smog, which India could learn from.
We are seeing a turning point in China-US ties. Whether the relations will move toward normalization and improvement or toward further deterioration will have a significant impact on global peace and development.
When observing a development path, it is important to consider who is guiding and governing, but more importantly, whether it can lead impoverished people to prosperity and benefit the general population.
If China and the US announce a return to cooperation, not only APEC countries but the entire world will breathe a huge sigh of relief.
This meeting in San Francisco will provide a valuable opportunity to promote the return of China-US relations to the right track. We hope the US side to demonstrate enough political courage and wisdom, meet the Chinese side halfway, and promote the construction of a correct way for China and the US to get along with each other, injecting stability and certainty into the turbulent world.
While pushing for “de-risking” from China, the EU risks hurting itself.
Western countries are keen on using the South Pacific as a stage for geopolitical competition, treating island nations as pawns to counter China's influence. This point couldn't be more evident.
David Cameron's appointment as Britain's new foreign secretary has the potential to breathe new life into the China-UK relationship which has in recent years experienced some serious setbacks.
If a country says it champions human rights, it should, above all, respect human rights. However, the UK and the US did not respect the lives of the Chagossians.
Looking ahead, the most important take away from the San Francisco meeting could be the further consolidation of ties and the ability to troubleshoot on short notice any major irritant that might arise in 2024, just as the US enters a raucous election season.
The Chinese online comments condemning Israel for its violence and injustice are not antisemitic, but anti-violence.
It is no longer a question of whether the escalating humanitarian disaster in the Gaza Strip should be stopped, but rather how to prevent the tragedy. It is obvious that as long as the artillery continues, the suffering there will only worsen, and it should not be so difficult for the international community to reach a basic consensus on this matter. In the face of a humanitarian disaster, the choice between pursuing one's own political self-interest or upholding morality and conscience not only tests the conflicting parties but also tests the US-led Western countries, which claim to prioritize human rights.
If the trilateral military alliance between the US, Japan, and South Korea is truly established, it will pose a huge threat to peace and stability in Northeast Asia and even the Indo-Pacific region, experts warned.
Turning Northeast Asia into a front line of camp confrontation is nothing but inviting disaster.
The practice of Japan in terms of the Fukushima nuclear plant is a very bad precedent for the future, what happened to Fukushima can happen anywhere in the world. We have to think about what is the best guideline for the future, so as to provide the good examples and make it the norm of the international community.
If the Philippines ultimately chooses to lean toward one side in the China-US competition, it is based not on national interests but on the manipulation of nationalism by various complex domestic and foreign political factors.
The meeting between Xi and Biden at the APEC meeting marks a critical juncture for the future of global stability.
Multiple bilateral talks are proving that the US knows how to explore and amplify positive factors between the two countries.
Whether the US will inject new content into Asia-Pacific regional cooperation or continue to exert centrifugal force on the future of APEC through its geopolitical calculations remains to be seen by the world.
As its credit rating keeps dropping, what else can the US do to handle it?
Americans are no longer qualified to view China with a benefactor mentality.
Over 70 years have passed, and the scenery of Pala Manor remains the same, but the people have changed.
The political differences between the two countries do not offer a legitimate reason for the soon-to-be absence of "panda-monium" in the US.
Since the US has continued to increase pressure on China in the past year or even longer but failed, it has sensed that China will never give in in matters of principle. As the US pushes harder, the stakes become higher. Washington already has a real need to stabilize China-US relations.
The anti-China forces in the West and the secessionist Dalai clique have infringed on both China's sovereignty and human rights. Astonishingly, they have whitewashed themselves, which are the perpetrators of human rights violations, as the so-called human rights defenders.
As long as Washington remains committed to "choking" China, the game of "Catch me if you can" will continue indefinitely.
US impedes global efforts to foster peace in Gaza.
The US and some other Western countries, rather than taking action, point an accusing finger at China for having provided aid and assistance. This has caused displeasure among developing countries.
The US always acts in a cold war mentality and zero-sum calculation. However, people in India and the Indian government want to maintain their own independence.
In general, Xizang is considered the least developed, most backward, most remote and most unique region in China. It would seem that the central government has only made one-way investments in Xizang, with no direct returns other than the region's defense and ecological values being harnessed. However, this is not the case. A series of innovative policies that break the norm in China were first implemented in Xizang before being promoted nationwide. In this sense, Xizang's exploration has been ahead of other provinces and autonomous regions, becoming an “experimental field" for promoting and expanding China's modernization.
Despite years of turbulence and tension, China-US relations are now starting to stabilize and improve, said Stephen Orlins, President of National committee on US-China Relations in a video speech at the Symposium on Global Maritime Cooperation and Ocean Governance 2023 on November 8. "I hope president Biden and Xi will meet next week in San Francisco," he stressed.
Gaza doesn't need a "fake ceasefire"; it needs a "true ceasefire." Only when all conflicting parties immediately cease all hostile activities can genuine peace talks and humanitarian relief efforts unfold. Without a comprehensive ceasefire, any amount of humanitarian aid is like a drop in the ocean.
It would be self-deceit if one claims that enhancing substantive relations with Taiwan by using economic and trade cooperation as an excuse is not a politically complex issue, or that the consequences are nothing serious.
If China's image in the past was subject to the perception others had of China, then it is now time to make up for this deficiency. By engaging in more frequent and effective communications, we can build more bridges with the world, gain more trust and achieve a better understanding.
For a country like the Philippines, actively intervening in the competition among great powers and intensifying the security conflicts with a major power while disregarding the needs of domestic economic development is no different from throwing itself into the fire.
Japan should convey the voices of all the Asian countries on the G7 platform, and make the other members in the G7 club understand and respect the real thoughts of Asia, which can actively contribute to maintaining stability and peace in the Asian region.
The US must demonstrate greater sincerity, provide a convincing explanation for its failure to implement the consensus reached by the two heads of state, and clarify its attitude toward the core interests that China has repeatedly emphasized, so as to create a better atmosphere and conditions for future possible meetings between the two heads of state.
@washingtonpost claims that China has acquired a global network of strategically vital ports, and US and its allies are concerned about potential military implications. US operates roughly 750 military bases in 80 different countries and regions. Can anyone look at that data and not ask about the potential military implications?
Due to the constraints of the Russia-Ukraine war and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, the US has fallen into strategic overstretch. In this situation, the US is still eager to increase its input in the Asia-Pacific region in an attempt to contain China. If the current approach persists, the US will only find itself stretched too thin.
If the digital world of the internet is filled with zero-sum thinking and politicized small circles, it will only transform from a bridge connecting different parties and facilitating mutual understanding to a weapon used to suppress competitors and create crises in other countries. The internet should not be controlled by the logic of group politics and zero-sum games.
Multipolarity is happening before our eyes. Rather than worrying about the changes, it is time for the EU to consider what should be done. As a supporter of multilateralism, the EU has a natural partner, China.
Does the US – the world's largest economy in nominal GDP terms – have an equivalent to the China-proposed BRI? It DOES – the Bomb and Ruin Initiative.
Only by adhering to open cooperation can China and Europe find the most realistic and reasonable way out, and China is undoubtedly the most reliable partner for Germany and Europe.
The opening of the Xinjiang Pilot Free Trade Zone is an important strategic shift for China's economy and its opening-up to other parts of the world. The ancient Silk Road will showcase its vigor and charm at this new historical point in the process of further expanding and deepening globalization, writes @dinggangchina
US credibility is sinking amid the escalating Israel-Palestine conflict.
Global unrest casts uncertainties over the 2024 US elections.
As the knots in the dispute between China and Australia in areas such as trade are slowly untied, if Canberra cannot tackle the issue concerning AUKUS well and allow itself to continue to be hijacked by the US' policy, this pact is likely to be an impediment to the China-Australia relations.
It can be said that the US policy toward the Pacific Islands is only a part of its strategy of containment and competition with China. In other words, if there were no China-US strategic competition, it is possible that the US president doesn't care, or would not even know, which countries are in the Pacific region.
The EU should strengthen communication and exchanges with regional countries based on the "two-state solution" within the framework of the UN and promote a just resolution of the Palestinian issue while strengthening the endogenetic power that maintains security in the Middle East.
Australia is the first US ally to make a clear change in its attitude toward China after a fierce conflict with China since the US defined China as its No.1 strategic competitor.
The future will see China's door of openness only widen further, integrating into the global wave of cooperation. This kind of harmonious collaboration is the true theme of the times. The background noise of those who speak negatively about China, much like the buzzing of mosquitoes, is simply annoying and ultimately inconsequential.
Those in the American media who only focus on geopolitics and the anti-China politicians who cannot tolerate giant pandas have a much narrower perspective and a less open heart compared to the average American citizens.
The US and the West in general are both blind and immune to the humanitarian crisis in Palestine. Their intentional ignorance of the severity of the spillovers would seriously undermine global security in many ways.
The US once again says no to UN resolution to end the Cuba embargo.
The anti-China and destabilizing forces are feeble, and the US' attempt to control the situation in Hong Kong and use Hong Kong to contain China is destined to be a daydream. The better Hong Kong is integrated into the overall development of the country, the fewer political levers the US and the West will have on Hong Kong.
With its stance on Palestine, the US is once more aggressively pushing the Global South away. The US government seems to think this has the effect of tossing these nations away, exiling them into obscurity.
Australia is struggling to resolve this contradiction - how does Australia become a proper member of the Asian community, rather than just a representative of great Western powers?
The US is too selfish to think of the interests of other countries. Countries shouldn't hold any belief whatsoever in US commitment. Look at Afghanistan and Syria, and now Ukraine. Who will be next?
The lively scenes at the CIIE are a vivid reality of the world sharing the dividends of China's development. China has always been an important opportunity for global development, which is not only China's intention and policy declaration, but also demonstrated through practical actions.
Thousands of protesters gathered near the White House, criticizing the US aid to Israel and calling for a ceasefire. Can this put pressure on US pro-Israel stance?
Although the future arrangement of the two-state solution still requires arduous negotiations, establishing two countries and ensuring that each one can operate stably and live in peace is the only goal that can promote negotiations between the two parties.
The Shanghai CIIE serves as a symbol to show that the “China Dream” for American businesses is still alive. No matter how much negativity the media narrative may push, China's size, the opportunities it offers and the success in which it reaps will continue to speak louder, which is why Washington DC circles will never convince businessmen to give it up.
Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese will make his first visit to China in early November since taking office. Before his visit to China, Albanese also met with US President Joe Biden in Washington. What does this US-China shuttle mean for China-Australia relations? What has been in the impact of a rocky few years for China-Australia ties? And what are the most important reasons behind improving relations? Andrew Robb (Robb), Australia's former minister for trade, investment and tourism, shared his views on these questions as well as the influence of US factors on Australia's China policy in an interview with Global Times (GT) reporter Wang Zixuan.
The most important thing in the struggle against the US is to figure out where the main battlefield is so that the US elites' attempt to ossify Chinese society will fail completely. I suggest that Chinese people use the reality of our society's vitality and vigor to hit Washington hard in its face and send those US extreme elites who arrogantly want to fight a "new cold war" with China into despair.
We anticipate that Albanese's visit will serve as a new starting point, allowing China-Australia relations to set sail once again and extend the warming trend in the "U" shape of the bilateral relationship further to form a longer, uppercase "J" shape.
It is worth noting that the rapid upgrading of Japan-Philippines security relations is by no means an isolated phenomenon, behind which the "phantom" of the US is faintly discernible.
The latest round of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict has been going on for over 20 days. While the bombardment is continuing, the crisis seems set to spill over into neighboring countries and probably the whole Middle East region. At a time when the majority of the international community is condemning the violence against civilians, the behavior of the US seems quite peculiar. Instead of calling for an immediate ceasefire, it is not only sending more munitions to this land under fire, but also standing in the way toward a complete and fundamental solution to a problem that has been dragging on for decades. As in most cases, when Uncle Sam shouts out "The US is coming to rescue!" things are usually getting worse, and a fair and equitable path forward is out of the question.
Today's world is more complex than it used to be, it's thus not easy to achieve lasting peace, Choi Shing Kwok (Choi), director and CEO of Singapore-based research center ISEAS – Yusof Ishak Institute, former permanent secretary at Singapore's Ministry of Transport, and the Ministry of the Environment and Water Resources, told Global Times (GT) reporter Li Aixin in an interview during the 10th Beijing Xiangshan Forum.
What Southeast Asian countries need and expect has always been clear. Any actions that provoke regional tensions under the guise of "security" are unwelcome, and Japan, which desires to become a "normal country," will only become more abnormal due to these moves.
It is the US military-industrial complex that makes the profit in the end.
The nomination of Campbell indicates that the focus of US diplomatic strategy remains in the Indo-Pacific region. If the US' strategy continues to attempt to start a “new cold war” and contain China, the Biden administration will inevitably experience policy failures.
A “balance” strategy that leaves open the possibility of a sound, stable and prosperous partnership between the two countries is needed in Canberra now.
The China-Australia relationship was once lauded as one of the most successful stories of China's relationship with Western countries. A new model of practical partnership needs to be ushered in and promoted between the two countries, based on genuine respect and constructiveness to bring about more mutual benefits.
Beijing Xiangshan Forum is one of the three most important defense forums and gatherings in the world, the other two being the Shangri-La Dialogue and the Munich Security Conference. And what really distinguishes the Xiangshan Forum from the other two forums lies in its promotion of common security and lasting peace.
The example of Cao county demonstrates the importance of focusing on pragmatic cooperation to further enhance China-Japan relations.
For China, nuclear weapons are only a strategic tool used to rule out the possibility of nuclear strikes or blackmail against China by external forces. All of China's national defense and security plans, including the use of force as a last resort to resolve the Taiwan question, are designed at the level of conventional weapons.
Inequality, tragically, is a feature of life all around the world. What makes this exceptional in the UK is that it seems to have been created deliberately to funnel the common affluence of the nation into the hands of those who already have more than enough.
China has the ability to defend its core interests, but expanding its interests requires great wisdom. We also need to further enhance our own strength, which is the most fundamental thing. Being more powerful is equivalent to taking a step further in our strategic thinking. We will have a clearer understanding of the logic of the world's operation and find a more effective route to safeguard our security in line with global changes.
China-Myanmar pauk-phaw friendship runs deep. Neighbors wish each other well, just as loved ones do to each other. China hopes for Myanmar's swift stability the most and will always maintain the attitude of cooperating and seeking development together with Myanmar.
The Official Security Assistance framework's application by Japan, driven by its desire to create chaos and provoke conflicts, is extremely detrimental to the peace and security of the entire region.
Both China and the US will continue to be strong, and they will have to come to a mutual accommodation. Without them coming together, our world will be more dangerous and brittle, said Singaporean defense minister
The US views the development of artificial intelligence technology with so-called democratic values.
If a war really breaks out in the Taiwan Straits, it needs to be pointed out that the responsibility for provoking this war lies entirely with the Taiwan authorities, the "Taiwan independence" secessionists, and external interfering forces, writes a PLA Lieutenant General
The shift from the balance of powers to a balance of interests is critically important, if humankind wants to survive through the 21st century.
China's Global Security Initiative is not about sacrificing the security of other countries to ensure its own security. It promotes cooperative security, where countries coexist on an equal footing and jointly maintain security. It aims for sustainable security.
The case of Cai Lei, a Chinese ALS patient and former vice president of JD.com, offers a unique perspective on China-US relations, showcasing the importance of cooperation rather than severance.
If China, the US and the EU can reach some consensus on global AI governance, it would be of great significance. One key aspect, as mentioned in China's "Global AI Governance Initiative," is to oppose drawing ideological lines or forming exclusive groups to obstruct other countries from developing AI, as well as to oppose creating barriers and disrupting the global AI supply chain through technological monopolies and unilateral coercive measures. Whether this healthy and constructive mindset can be maintained not only affects the specific outcomes of this summit, but also the safe development of AI.
Instead of saying the US Ambassador to Japan Rahm Emanuel's announcement of bulk buying Japanese seafood is support for Japan, it would be fairer to describe it as a diplomatic show and "double standard" behavior.
If we are talking about China-US rivalry in the region, I think the Philippines is the place where it is happening the most. However, I hope the Philippines can be in the place where Indonesia is now, because we have a very strong relationship with China, while we also have good relations with the US: former Indonesian deputy FM
China and the US are destined as two countries, given the importance of our economies and the weight of our influence in the world, to have to work together, scholars from China and the US agreed at the recent North Pavilion Dialogue held by Peking University in Beijing.
There is no better example than the Middle East where China has become a conciliator, for example between Saudi Arabia and Iran, and a voice for peace and dialogue.
The West should acknowledge China's accomplishments and work earnestly with Beijing for the common good.
China is being candid and forthright about its true stance on the Taiwan question, which clearly indicates that there is no room for “negotiation” on matters of sovereignty.
There is absolutely no foundation for the formation of "antisemitism" as an ideology in China. The criticism of Israel's excessive use of force in Chinese public opinion is primarily based on morality.
G7 calls for immediate repeal of bans on Japanese food.
In the short term, I believe the US wants bilateral relations with China to stabilize, perhaps even to improve a little bit. But in the longer term, China-US relations will remain tense and difficult.
We hope that the US side can find the signposts for "the path to San Francisco" and make practical efforts to establish a new starting point for the next stage of meaningful engagements and stable relations between China and the US.
If the Chinese government is forced to use force to resolve the Taiwan question, it will be a war of reunification, legitimacy and justice from the moral high ground, Lieutenant General He Lei, former vice president of the Academy of Military Sciences of the PLA, told the Global Times during the 10th Beijing Xiangshan Forum on Sunday, referring to The Art of War by ancient Chinese military strategist Sun Tzu.
Why should US fear the Israel-Palestine conflict more than China? The answer: "hatred."
"China has taken increasingly active approaches to addressing global and regional security challenges and risks," said Kim Chang-su
In civilization terms, war is a backward, primitive thing; it solves no conflicts and creates no security - only hate, which fuels more war. It's a system or structural evil - much more than a human evil.
Connectivity in the future will not just be about infrastructure and productivity but also digital and people-to-people connectivity, Indonesian Ambassador to China Djauhari Oratmangun said at a forum in Beijing on Saturday.
Arrogance is the root of America's mistaken ideas about China. The American people allow the prevailing narrative – built by powerful forces such as government and the military-industrial complex, both of which have vital interests in stoking disdain about China – to continue.
"At the moment, we are going through a period of some tensions in the US-China relationship, but I sincerely believe that we will find ways to get past," former US deputy secretary of state John Negroponte said at North Pavilion Dialogue held by Peking University in Beijing on October 27.
As the US' alliance and its partnership network in the Asia-Pacific region face a growing number of cracks, Washington has made all efforts to put patches on them. In particular, its solution is to build up more minilateral groups that, in its opinion, can coordinate better on concrete issues. But this approach only exposes more problems in the US' already shaky partnership framework in the region.
The latest video released by the US military on October 26 of a Chinese fighter jet and a US bomber flying over the South China Sea "in danger of collision" has revealed the truth behind the US speculation over the so-called perilous intercept.
After Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese's visit to the US this week, he will visit China next week.
How to promote global AI governance and ensure that AI technology benefits humanity is a crucial issue for the future of mankind.
The fact is, the brutal retaliatory actions of the Israel Defense Forces are generating increasing global antipathy. Israel is depleting the world's sympathy for it, and morally, it is transforming itself from a victim into one of the world's most brutal inflicters.

The military vessel "grounded" at Ren'ai Reef is already in a dilapidated state; it should have been put to an end long time ago.
