'Super Golden Week' is more than just about the economy: Global Times editorial
The more valuable significance of observing the "Super Golden Week" lies in the fact that it demonstrates that China, in every aspect, is far from reaching the peak of its modernization process.
Canada is under fire, again. This time, it has become a laughingstock of the world.
As part of civil society, we should make every effort to put China-US relations back on track.
Japan's LDP administration is apparently exploiting anti-China sentiment in order to divert public attention from the environmental focus of the radioactive discharge issue. It is a great shame that it has become a new addition to the already growing racism ...
As the white paper says, "This is an integrated world. Those who turn their back on it will have no place in it." In such a world, the true power that transcends time is contained in the silent and subtle ideas, just like the practical greatness demonstrated by the concept of global community of shared future.
If China and Australia join hands, the improvement of ties is foreseeable, but if one side intentionally obstructs the process, it may add hurdles to this process.
Though it is hardly possible to get back to where the region was 20 years ago, the spirit of the six-party talks remains the best hope for security solutions in the region of Northeast Asia.
It is important to remind the Philippines that engaging in such staged acts is not beneficial for resolving the South China Sea issue. Instead, it complicates the problem, increases risks, and damages the peaceful environment in the South China Sea as well as the mutually beneficial cooperation between China and the Philippines.
The more the US promotes its "cooperation with these countries," the more it highlights the weakness and fragility of their relationship.
South Korea should not perceive China's support as a sign of weakness or as a result of Seoul leaning toward the Washington and Tokyo to gain a so-called greater say. It would be very dangerous if South Korea has such thoughts, and we hope that South Korea will wake up to this reality as soon as possible.
Bearing all this in mind, it can be said that the legacy of the Nord Stream explosions still lingers one year on, and will likely persist across the coming years due to its game-changing consequences.
The Asian Games deserves extra attention as they reflect rising Asian culture - they are not just a copy of Western sports transposed onto Asia.
West invests heavily in weapons, but very little in global development.
For both China and Europe, this year's Dialogue is different from the previous nine ones.
For the rest of the world, this situation appears to be a farce of a commonplace American political struggle.
As the diplomatic dispute between India and Canada continues to escalate, the US has adopted a very "low-key" and subtle attitude and position, reflecting its lack of control and mediation over ally and partner issues.
Whether these initiatives will materialize and gain genuine support remains to be seen, and there is considerable skepticism among potential beneficiaries.
West invests heavily in weapons, but very little in global development.
Sport remains one of the few international events still capable of bringing people together in the spirit of harmony and goodwill. This spirit will soon be on display in the Chinese city of #Hangzhou. The upcoming event reaffirms China's significant position on the global sports stage, receiving commendations from all around.
No one will doubt the level of organization and the splendor of the Hangzhou Asian Games.
Let us have enough power to deter the US, and at the same time have enough patience to engage in complex games and exchanges with the US. We must maintain a complex relationship that is difficult to define, use our strategic initiative to guide China-US relations, and prevent both sides from moving in the direction of being enemies. I believe that doing this well is the great strategy and great wisdom of the Chinese nation.
The US is caught in the Canada-India diplomatic row.
How to handle relations with India without compromising national sovereignty, independence and territorial integrity while ensuring smooth communication with the outside world has always been the greatest challenge for Nepal's foreign policy.
The era of Eurasia has arrived and we consider it a crucial direction for the future.
The separate agenda pursued by the US differs significantly from the challenges and opportunities faced by developing countries, or member states of the Global South.
Huawei and ZTE's equipment components have proven their security, which is more convincing. The stability, reliability, and advancement of Huawei and ZTE's equipment in terms of technology, as well as their high cost-effectiveness, are undeniable facts. It is irrational to limit or ban Huawei and ZTE, even at the cost of self-harm.
The US actually hopes China's neighbors in the South and East China Seas to fight Beijing at the forefront, while the US provides strategic support from behind. As US sinister intentions of exploiting its allies & partners become increasingly prominent, how many countries will be willing to pay for US hegemonic strategy?
The EU should realize that hoping to gain an advantage through "playing cards" and creating leverage will not bring benefits to the game but rather push the existing mutually beneficial relationship between the two sides toward a worse future.
The approval rating of the prime minister often sees an obvious increase after a reshuffle, but Kishida's recent cabinet revamp failed to achieve such an effect. This reflects structural problems in the Kishida administration.
“I hope British and Europeans can… at least having more respect for Chinese values, Chinese culture and Chinese identity.”
The best way to calm the wrath and concerns over the discharge is to immediately stop dumping contaminated water. As China and other stakeholders have pointed out, if the nuclear-contaminated water is truly safe, Japan wouldn't have to discharge it into the sea – and certainly shouldn't if it's not.
A crucial crossroads has been reached. If the US forces China to achieve complete independence in the semiconductor industry, it will have no further cards to play in blocking China's progress. Moreover, the technological landscape of the world will undergo a rewrite. China now possesses the capital, and we will continue to progress no matter what. It is now the US' turn to make a choice: continue gambling or change course and resume cooperation?
One of the most urgent tasks facing China, Japan, and South Korea is to maintain regional stability, ensuring they do not continue down the dangerous path of security dilemmas. Then, they need to firmly steer in the right direction, staying on the road of mutual benefit, cooperation and shared development.
The US has a notorious track record in the field of cybersecurity.
The US is "a thief crying 'stop thief'" as it is the No.1 country that engages in surveillance and reconnaissance in the world.
US-led Yellow Sea drills are creating the problem, not creating a solution. While the Western media attempts to portray South Korea as an ally or partner, considering the true nature of Washington's relationship with Seoul, it seems more appropriate to describe South Korea as a hostage.
The shutdown crisis each fiscal year proves that the US system is only treating the symptoms and not the root cause. Both parties no longer see a government shutdown as a crisis but rather as a bargaining chip with which to threaten each other.
Although The COVID-19 Origin Act of 2023 is "full of absurdities," as a rare "sample," it highly condenses the underlying logic of American hegemony and reflects the increasingly irrational and impetuous state of the US against the background of the weakening of its hegemonic power.
The rise of Chinese manufacturing will undoubtedly pose a shock to the EU, but if it cannot treat such competition fairly and continues to politically discriminate against Chinese companies, the EU itself will ultimately be hurt.
Some people in the West attempt to exclude China from the "Global South," but they cannot deny our close ties and cooperation with developing countries, nor can they deny the contributions China has made to the development of "the South" countries and South-South cooperation. In fact, China has made significant contributions to South-South cooperation in the past and present, and will continue to make efforts in the future.
Whether Westerners genuinely consider India as a democratic country like themselves is questionable. It's just that currently India is useful to Westerners.
A US government shutdown looms.
The rising power and growing influence of the developing nations, spearheaded by China, are shifting the world's center of gravity to the East and the South.
Is China's economy in trouble? The truth is, US is no longer capable of containing the rising China.
Replacing Chinese teachers is more about party political symbolism, than a serious policy, for if it goes ahead it is likely to prove an egregious act of self-harm. It is misconceived, counter-productive and possibly damaging to the longer term interests of the UK.
Convincing US to drop Assange's extradition is conditioned by a process that is out Australia's hands. Australia remains the most valuable of abused friends of the US.
Chinese diplomacy is willing to devote more energy and resources to strengthen, consolidate, and further develop bilateral relationships with certainty, such as the China-Russia relationship. Both China and Russia are major countries with strong strategic autonomy, and their interactions are open and aboveboard, which will by no means succumb to Washington's influence.
It is obvious that the fate of Taiwan island has and always will mean more to China than it will to the US and its hodgepodge of loosely-aligned Asian and European allies.
South Korea's political scene has entered a chaotic state. As partisan conflict has become intensified and polarized in the country, Yoon's governance is likely to see more obstacles.
"China collapse" has never and will never become true.
Judging from various concerns within South Korea, it is not in South Korea's interest to rush to the forefront of confronting China and Russia on behalf of the US.
The BRI has been successful because its core values are inclusiveness and win-win development.
It is evident that this is not about granting developing countries a more equal status and development opportunities, but rather an attempt to continue to confine them to the periphery of the “center-periphery” system.
China and Middle East countries can build a bridge of communication and actively face global challenges together, said experts attending a forum in Shanghai over the weekend.
The timing of the strike is crucial, coming at a rapid change in the global auto industry and on the eve of the highly anticipated 2024 US elections.

The US, Japan and South Korea are moving closer to forming a trilateral alliance and further accelerating NATO-ization of the region. The gates of hell have been opened.
Ten Republican lawmakers jointly sent a letter dated Thursday to Alan Estevez, undersecretary of Commerce for Industry and Security, exerting pressure and presenting seven demands. These demands include the establishment of a new agency dedicated to controlling the export of American technology to China, imposing “full blocking sanctions” on both Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corporation (SMIC) and Huawei, and placing all their subsidiary companies on the Entity List.
For AUKUS, to build the political, diplomatic and military infrastructure that will enable the US to maintain dominance in the region is the name of the game. It may create problems in the short to medium term. We need to be concerned about these looming dangers: Australian scholar
British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak said on Thursday that he is "acutely aware of the particular threat to our open and democratic way of life" posed by China, in response to a damning report on the UK's China strategy by Parliament's Intelligence and Security Committee.
September 15 marks the second anniversary of the signing of the AUKUS treaty between the US, the UK and Australia. When considering what Australia has gained from this, I would say nothing and less than nothing.
Australian, UK and US tech companies already reaping AUKUS benefits
We hope that the EU can extract the correct information from the case of the solar industry, listen more to the voices of the business community, and have fewer politicized interpretations.
The meeting at the Vostochny Cosmodrome demonstrates a new way of thinking about Russia's use of strategic capabilities. What I am worried about is that as the confrontation continues to develop toward the extreme, all kinds of unexpected imaginations and practices may be forced out.
The current generation of American elites arrogantly seeks to replicate the victory of the Cold War, but they will never succeed. Instead, the US will face a different ending.
If the EU is truly open to competition, it should encourage automakers of the two sides to cooperate.
The key for change is for the US to give up its idea that it should be a hegemonic power. You're not going to see that coming from Washington elites. This would have to come from the American public, the voters.
The "beacon of democracy” does not allow a rational voice toward China.
Certainly, should the IMEC get off the ground without Chinese involvement and sell expensive Western infrastructure, then it will be interesting to observe the Western ideological apparatus scramble to justify how their venture is superior to the BRI, the initiative that the majority of the world has already voluntarily signed up to.
For Seoul and Canberra, there are many similarities in their relationship with Beijing.
The DPP's persistent "pro-independence" agenda, coupled with provocations from countries like the US and Japan, has been intensifying, which push us to continually strengthen our capacity to counteract separatist activities while advocating for peaceful reunification.
It is not too late for democratic, accountable, evidence-based common sense to curtail the fraught AUKUS nuclear submarine plan and avoid the huge opportunity costs for human and environmental security and the grave dangers it fuels.
If the trilateral summit between China, Japan, and South Korea is only for showcasing South Korea's leadership and international status, the public's dissatisfaction with the government will only continue to rise.
The aggressiveness of Made-in-China products in the global market represented by Huawei is undoubtedly not limited to mobile phones. That's what worries Washington the most.
China needs to be prepared for Japan's long-term strategic malice and "salami-slicing" provocations.
Those politicians who pay a provocative visit to the Taiwan region should wake up and recognize the overall trend of historical development.
In a statement through his lawyers, the man has criticized the "misreporting" and "extravagant news reporting" of his arrest. Will it transpire that hyped media reports have done nothing but feed China hate?
The Sunak government obviously sees the harm that extreme thinking toward China has brought to the UK and intends to re-calibrate the relationship between China and the UK. However, the distorted British political environment has greatly limited the space and extent to which this re-calibration can be made.
Over time, the system has deviated from its original design to some extent, including the details of some rules in election, but it is difficult to carry out an overall reform, which has led to the disordered money-oriented politics in the US election.
Chinese society must be more rational and self-confident than the nervous British Parliament and the geopolitically addicted US Congress. While they continue to scream like apes, we are like a swift boat that has already sailed through thousands of hills.
It is destined to be recorded in the history of the G20 New Delhi Summit and reflects the delusional side of India's dream of becoming a major power.
The strengthening of Vietnam-US relations has been brewing for a long time. It seems grand in scale, but the essence of "peace, cooperation and sustainable development" needs to be carefully examined.
If Western leaders insist that the BRI and multipolarity are mere fads that will soon disappear, they are certain to further weaken the already frayed image of the West throughout the Global South.
For China, some people from the outside creating false information about China's economy is despicable and condemnable. We must first maintain composure and judgment, not be swayed by malicious rumors and manipulations, and concentrate on doing our own things well. Let the fact that China's economy is thriving and moving forward vigorously serve as the most powerful refutation against them.
US President Joe Biden said at a news conference in Hanoi, Vietnam, on Sunday after upgrading the US-Vietnam relationship, “I don't want to contain China.

I look forward to the new stage our bilateral relations will achieve when the next round of High-level Dialogue takes place in Australia next year.
It would be extraordinarily naive to believe that defense contractors and the people they fund have incentives that supersede the profit motive.
Paying attention cannot be equated with paying respect. Attaching significance with ulterior motives is instrumentalizing the targeted country, which fundamentally disrespects the principle of equal and mutually beneficial relations.
Both sides should make greater efforts to maintain the encouraging development momentum of the bilateral ties and work harder to push forward the much expected people-to-people exchanges.
India has always had two names: "India" in English and "Bharat" in Hindi and several other languages.
In less than 20 years since the last financial crisis, the US president is anxiously trying to occupy the leadership position of the G20. Anyone with a basic comprehension of the existing global order can detect Washington's fears.
All the countries of Central Asia, including Kazakhstan, look at the BRI as a very attractive, very welcome opportunity to resolve very difficult issues.
It is obvious that China has not, and will not, follow the steps of the US and fall into its pre-determined cold war strategy. Instead, China will hold onto peaceful development and opening-up, and keep seeking cooperation without confrontation. In this way, one hand cannot clap to wage the "new cold war" without the other.
I urge everyone to have as much trust and confidence in China's economic development as I do. Let's be realistic - the Chinese economy will not only continue to develop but also may eventually surpass that of the US. Nothing will change in the world at that time, and the world will be multipolar.
“This is a commonplace type of munition,” says John Kirby on US providing depleted uranium rounds to Ukraine.
Although the US is urgently bringing Vietnam into its "anti-China circle," Hanoi is not destined to become the "next Philippines" in Washington's strategy. Vietnam will not deviate from its policy of balancing between China and the US.
It is not only the expectation of developing countries, but also in the long-term interests of the US and Western countries to let consensus transcend differences and gather strength through cooperation.
Some governments may choose to blindly follow the decisions of other countries and forcibly cut off scientific and technological cooperation due to political reasons. But it is their people that will bear the cost of technological regression.

If cooperation between the three countries is revitalized, greater momentum will be injected into the cooperation between ASEAN and China, Japan, and South Korea (10+3). We hope that South Korea can truly implement these words and respond to everyone's concerns.
BRICS is just one of many examples of the growing strength of the multipolar world. Multilateral mechanisms in all spheres of development are also growing, from the Shanghai Cooperation Organization to China-led projects like the Belt and Road Initiative.
It is this unity and shared purpose that the West lacks. Indeed without a major shift in their global outlook, Western transnational elites will continue to fear ethnic unity both at home and abroad.
Such differential treatment inevitably creates rifts within ASEAN. Biden's decision to prioritize Vietnam over ASEAN once again demonstrates the US' intention to divide ASEAN.
In reality, the West does not fear China because it threatens global security and prosperity. The West fears China because its rise represents the end of the West's ability to threaten the world with impunity.
A bird's-eye view of Maui Island, Hawaii, will no longer offer a heavenly scenery but instead a scorched land similar to a battle field.
We have received Australia's sincerity in wanting to strengthen communication with China and will respond with goodwill. We hope that the high-level dialogue between China and Australia can achieve results beyond expectations.

The US Congress will continue to produce anti-China bills under the pretext of democracy and human rights, exhibiting typical power politics and hegemonism. But facts speak louder than words, and the false narratives behind Xinjiang-related legislation in the US will eventually be discarded as trash of history.
At the end of 2019, I accompanied an American and German media delegation to the offices of Chinese tech giant Huawei. Although it was only for one day, this brief encounter gave me a deeper understanding of this company.

Second, the US has launched a flat-out propaganda campaign in an attempt to conceal this fact.
Since February 24, 2022, the beginning of the hostilities in Ukraine, the European Union has planned to give €20 billion ($21 billion) of aid to Kiev but failed to reach its strategic goal of defeating Russia economically and militarily.

The China-US bilateral relationship is one of the most important in the world. The trajectory of this relationship has attracted international attention.

We are not inciting anti-Japanese sentiment, as our target is always Japan's irresponsible dumping actions. What we are doing is urging Japan to stop its wrongdoing, cancel the ocean discharge plan, for the sake of protecting the oceans for the common interests of humanity across generations.
In the face of the Japanese government's determination to proceed with this action, we need to employ even more sophisticated fighting skills, firmly understanding the purpose and cause we are defending. We must always stand on the high ground of international justice, rendering Japan's political tricks useless.
Europe is caught in an abnormal phenomenon: The more it follows the US, the weaker it becomes, leading it to follow Washington even more. Breaking free from this vicious circle is an urgent problem that European leaders must address.

If the overall environment of China-US economic and trade relations is damaged, all market entities, including a large number of American companies, will become victims.
