The 80th anniversary of the victory in the Chinese People's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression (1931-45) and the World Anti-Fascist War this year has boosted Chinese people's pride for resisting the main forces of militarist Japan, playing a decisive role in the ultimate defeat of the fascist Japanese aggressors. The Asian battlefield played an equally important role as the European one in the war.
2025-05-09 11:33:31Eighty years ago, the victory of the World Anti-Fascist War rescued humanity from catastrophe and laid the foundation for the UN-centered international system and the international order underpinned by international law. History reminds the world that peace is never a given -- it must be actively upheld by all nations.
2025-05-08 16:45:15Taiwan's true path to international engagement has never depended on currying favor with the US but on returning to the broader course of national rejuvenation. Any "external exchanges" that deviate from the framework of the one-China principle will ultimately lead Taiwan down a dead end.
2025-05-06 17:50:15The UN Security Council's collective security model, for instance, has found renewed relevance through influential trans-regional mechanisms like the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO), which merges counterterrorism drills with public health coordination.
2025-05-05 22:52:20Looking ahead, whether this order will prompt Dassault Aviation to authorize the establishment of a final assembly line in India, and how the Rafale M will perform within India's carrier strike groups once in service, are important aspects that warrant close attention.
2025-05-05 22:16:04There is but one China in the world, and Taiwan is an inalienable part of the Chinese territory. The government of the People's Republic of China is the sole legal government representing China. The one-China principle is a prevailing international consensus, the political foundation of China-Japan relations, and a clear commitment made by Japan.
2025-04-29 17:24:19Recently, the UK has released some positive signals toward China, but its military moves reveal a clear contradiction.
2025-04-29 15:44:51US-Philippines joint exercises have already provoked discontent among neighbouring countries, leaving the two increasingly isolated in the region. Such is the law that an unjust cause finds meagre support. At a time when regional nations are calling for solidarity and development, Washington and Manila's insistence on confrontation and disruption goes against the prevailing tide and is bound to be rejected.
2025-04-27 18:00:59This situation presents quite a paradox. Without US support, Japan's regime would struggle to survive, and without the Asia-Pacific market, Japan would find it hard to develop its economy. In the face of both economic and security dilemmas, Japan's ambition to become a "major power" seems unlikely to succeed.
2025-04-25 19:03:45The Philippines and the US recently launched the 2025 annual Balikatan military exercises. Notably, this year's drills not only took place on the northern Philippine island of Luzon but also extended to the Batanes Islands, which are closer to Taiwan of China. Analysts suggest that the growing involvement of the Philippines and the US in the Taiwan Strait is becoming increasingly evident.
2025-04-25 16:45:38Despite the Trump administration's widespread cuts to government employees and its calls to reduce overall spending, it insisted on increasing the defense budget in its very first year, even at the risk of expanding the fiscal deficit. This highlights the strategic considerations and policy priorities of the US.
2025-04-24 19:21:17On Monday, Beijing hosted the First Ministerial Meeting of China-Indonesia Joint Foreign and Defense Ministerial Dialogue. This proactive step marks a new phase in China-Indonesia ties, elevating their relationship to a more comprehensive and strategic level, and reassuring the audience about the region's security. Notably, this is the first "2+2" ministerial mechanism China established with a regional partner in Asia.
2025-04-22 22:01:11Considering the US strategy of using Taiwan to contain China, the motive behind these moves is self-evident. It is therefore likely that the US will deploy the NMESIS system on Luzon Island, potentially in areas near the Bashi Channel.
2025-04-22 18:41:22Military observer Zheng Jian explained that the MQ-4C Triton is a long-endurance unmanned aircraft developed by the US Navy based on the Global Hawk platform. Equipped with radar, electro-optical sensors, and other detection systems, it boasts advanced strategic reconnaissance and surveillance capabilities.
2025-04-22 19:42:25Recently, the US approved a $5.58 billion deal to supply 20 new F-16 fighter jets, along with other defense equipment to the Philippines. On April 6, Philippine Ambassador to the US Jose Manuel G. Romualdez stated that the delivery of the 20 F-16 fighter jets could begin as early as next year in multiple batches.
