US blame game cannot cover up its wantonness

Editor's note: The United States recently blamed China for the lack of progress in the 11th round of the Sino-US trade talks, accusing China of "backsliding" from and "breaching" the commitments it had made. By using such words while wielding the tariff stick, Washington is in essence attempting to confuse the global public. Zhong Sheng, a columnist for People's Daily, comments:

China's self-sufficiency drive spurred on by tech Cold War

Never in its history has the West, led by the United States, put so much effort into suppressing one single company. By turning a venture that stands at the forefront of the next-generation communications into a public enemy, the US is making no secret of its desire to strangle Huawei's growth, a company that has no competitors in the US.

Huawei's foresight and insight key to its international success

REN ZHENGFEI, founder and chairman of Huawei, had an interview with the Chinese media in Shenzhen, where the company is headquartered, on Tuesday. Ren said the United States has underestimated Huawei's strength and resilience, and the company had prepared for a confrontation with the US for a long time.

Some posts on social media platforms say the Chinese economy exhibits the phenomenon of "Hot South, Cold North", which means economic development in southern China is better than in northern China. But despite the recent economic experiences of northern China, we should not be pessimistic about the region's economic future.

Huawei definitely will not repeat ZTE's fate this time

On the heels of the United States government announcement it will ban unauthorized exports of US technology to Huawei, by Monday, a number of major US tech giants, including Google, had reportedly stopped supplies.

Navigation freedom a pretext for putting pressure on China

The United States Navy sent a warship through Chinese waters without the Chinese government's permission on Monday. The move was especially provocative given the flare-up in the trade frictions between the two countries.

China has to withstand shock waves from its rise

THE US ADMINISTRATION said it would ban US corporations from selling components and software to Huawei, China's 5G technology giant. China Daily reporter Li Yang comments:

Social media-induced compassion fatigue

ON THURSDAY, A WOMAN IN ZHOUKOU, Henan province, called the police, saying her 4-month-old son had gone missing when she fainted in a park. The news spread on social media and with the help of people nationwide, the baby was returned to her on Sunday. Yet there is more to the incident. China Daily writer Zhang Zhouxiang comments:
