Beginning of the end of trade war good for all

Many are debating whether the China-US agreement reached at their trade talks in Geneva, Switzerland, over the weekend and taking effect on Wednesday is a win for China or the United States.

Policy to prevent poverty regression progressing well

Now that more than four years have passed since China eradicated absolute poverty, especially in rural areas, it is the right time to review the rural development situation.

US should reflect on its flawed tariff policies

We need to see other actors in the US stand up and communicate to the American people that his policy is flawed, a false diagnosis and harmful to the US.

Increased consumption can offset tariff disruption

The upcoming May Day holiday is poised to showcase China's economic resilience, much like during the Spring Festival and other holidays. This is crucial for China to bolster consumption in the face of global tariff shocks.

Global cooperation in a changing world

The foundations of the modern global rules-based order were laid 80 years ago with the defeat of fascism and the establishment of the United Nations. The intention was to establish the framework for resolving conflict and fostering development.

Shared duty of care

This year marks the 50th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between the European Union and China — a milestone that deserves recognition and thoughtful reflection. In 1975, the world was a very different place. The European Community, as it was then known, had not yet evolved into the European Union as we know it today. China as well had not yet begun its own transformative journey, initiated by reform and opening-up. The global stage was dominated by the tensions of the Cold War, dividing nations ideologically and politically.

TSMC business shows futility of US move

US President Donald Trump's primary aim of imposing extremely high tariffs on imports from its trading partners, particularly from China, is not to earn more customs revenue but to compel foreign manufacturers to relocate their production units from China to the United States.

China-US ties, global order should be based on rules

The future of relations between the United States and China in 2025 feels like a sea of uncertainty. One would either need boundless optimism or complete detachment to feel entirely confident about where things are heading. With Donald Trump's return to the presidency, the global order stands at a crossroads, teetering on the brink of significant instability. His campaign was full of sweeping pronouncements on major global issues — trade, technology, climate and industrial policy — but it lacked the coherence of a clear plan. His idea of imposing tariffs on Chinese goods, for example, signals a strong "America First" attitude but leaves much to interpretation.

For years Huawei has been facing accusations from the West that its products have"backdoors" that allow the company to obtain data that flow on the networks they build and maintain, and give China access to telecom networks globally.

Brazil and China cement a durable bond for the 21st century

There are many synergies between Brazil and China, particularly related to the New Growth Acceleration Program, specifically in energy and transportation, in which Chinese companies have achieved a high level of expertise.

Why Chinese economy can navigate global headwinds

Assuming that the measures US President Donald Trump has taken in the first few weeks in office reflect, a new and sustainable path for the United States, instead of whims, will they have an impact on China's economic prospects?

Encouraging youth to achieve their dreams

Editor's note: Over the past years, China's socioeconomic situation has undergone significant transformation. Faced with challenges and opportunities, the Chinese government has been making concerted efforts to promote social development and high-quality growth. Three experts share their views on the issue with China Daily.

Damage control

As countries around the world accelerate their strategic technological deployments, traditional global geopolitics are shifting toward "techno-politics". That is, with the unprecedented rise in the role of technology and under the logic of international political competition, the organizational structures and behavioral patterns of nations, as well as the means and content of major power competition, are undergoing significant changes. Technological factors have become core variables in economic competition, national security and even ideological confrontation.

Not for alliance but for history and peace

Almost all countries in the world, even islands inhabited by only penguins in the Pacific, are facing the United States' tariff war.

G20 should help address common global challenges

The existing global economic governance system is faltering against the growing tide of trade protectionism and unilateralism.
