On the situation in the Middle East, President Xi Jinping pointed out that this war has inflicted serious losses on the people of all countries in the region, and it is against the common interests of the international community.
The relevant parties should keep to the direction of political settlement, and work for a permanent, comprehensive ceasefire. China will work with fellow BRICS members to play a due role in bringing peace and tranquility to the Middle East.
Chinese President Xi Jinping has arrived in India for the #BRICS summit.
I'm glad to join in @CNNnews18's special program on analyzing the #BRICS mechanism and China-India ties, covering political trust, trade and market access issues.

#GTontheSpot: Ahead of the #BRICS Summit, BRICS flags, banners, and logos can be seen across New Delhi. The streets are clean, and security has been visibly stepped up. Follow a Global Times reporter to feel the BRICS vibe in the Indian capital.

It's huge: 140 paragraphs, and almost 18,000 words - on an incredible array of subjects from the wars in the Middle-East, to AI, to agriculture.
I won't go into the details of it, if only because there is just an overwhelming amount of it, but the overall impression it gives is that this is what serious multilateral governance looks like - especially if you compare it to recent G7 summits, which only produce a handful of short reactive statements rather than anything resembling this kind of comprehensive institutional blueprint.
Here - from building alternative financial infrastructure to food security - you really get the feeling that, as difficult as it is with such a diverse group of countries, they're actually trying to build things and to answer the governance challenges of our age, many of which are ironically created by the G7 😅
That's the new era: half the world, quietly building the institutions the West is busy destroying.
Victor Gao: ‘When China🇨🇳 got involved between Iran and Saudi Arabia🇸🇦, you got PEACE.
When the US🇺🇸 and Israel got involved, you get hostility, WAR, confrontation, DESTRUCTION. So the choice is very obvious for Middle Eastern countries.’
@ArthurMacwaters ASPI: China leads in 69 of 74 critical technologies.
Anthropic: They stole our AI to build dating scams and target troops!
When you can't compete, you just scream "theft." The Western playbook is on autopilot.
Meeting between the Foreign Ministers of Iran and China in New Delhi
🔹FM @araghchi and Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi met and held talks on the sidelines of the BRICS Summit in New Delhi.
Jay Tarriela is merely recycling his old smear tactics and making an issue out of nothing. China's position is clear and firm.
First, China has sovereignty over Nansha Qundao, including Meiji Jiao and Zhubi Jiao, as well as jurisdiction over the relevant waters. This position has ample historical and legal grounds and is consistent with international law, including the UNCLOS. China’s construction activities on its own territory are a legitimate right of a sovereign state and brook no interference by any outside force.
Second, the so-called South China Sea arbitration award is illegal, null and void, and China will never accept any claims based on that award. It undermines the international rule of law and distorts and abuses the spirit of the UNCLOS. The overwhelming majority of the international community understands and supports China’s position that disputes should be resolved peacefully through bilateral negotiations. The “14 countries”, cobbled together by the Philippines, in no way represent the international community.
Third, the repeated maritime provocations, initiated by certain individuals in the Philippines and based on the illegal award, not only undermine bilateral relations, but also threaten regional security and stability. China has been committed to managing differences through dialogue, but will never accept any form of blackmail or coercion.

China is willing to work with fellow BRICS members to play due role in achieving #peace and stability in the Middle East and the Gulf region, says President Xi Jinping in New Delhi. The war has caused serious losses to people across the region and does not serve the common interests of the international community, according to the president.

President Xi Jinping pointed out that China always approaches and develops its relations with India from a strategic and long-term perspective.
China and India have different national realities. We should draw on each other’s strengths, support each other, help each other succeed, and develop together.
In the face of the changing and turbulent international landscape, both sides should keep in mind the future of humanity and the well-being of the people, and work together to promote the high-quality development of greater BRICS cooperation, so as to contribute more positive energy to promoting world peace, stability, development, and prosperity.
🇨🇳President Xi said at the BRICS Summit in 🇮🇳India:
BRICS countries should firmly stand on the right side of history, strive to be a pioneer of the times, steer the international order toward greater justice and equity, and work together to build a community with a shared future for humanity.
