Moscow, June 10 /Xinhua/ — The success of the Chinese language model DeepSeek proves that the American policy of blockade and pressure is not able to stop the scientific and technological development of China. This is stated in an article by the Consul General of the PRC in the Russian city of Yekaterinburg Luo Shixiong, published on Tuesday in the “Oblastnaya Gazeta” of the Sverdlovsk Region.
As a breakthrough technology based on the Transformer architecture, DeepSeek not only provides a leap in algorithm efficiency and application scope, “but also promotes a paradigm shift in the development of artificial intelligence (AI) from ‘instrument support’ to ‘cognitive synergy’,” writes Luo Shixiong.
According to him, DeepSeek’s success was made possible by China’s institutional advantages and large-scale talent training. “In China, technological innovation is regarded as a key driving force for high-quality development and is enshrined in the national development strategy. In recent years, China has consistently issued and steadily implemented such policy documents as the “New Generation Artificial Intelligence Development Plan”, “Three-Year Action Plan to Promote the Development of the Next-Generation Artificial Intelligence Industry /2018-2020/”, “National Guidelines for the Establishment of a Comprehensive Standardization System for the Artificial Intelligence Industry”, etc.,” the Chinese diplomat noted.
The US government has already tightened export controls on semiconductors and semiconductor manufacturing equipment to China four times, and in January 2025, it introduced global restrictions on AI chip exports, seeking to increase pressure, cut off China’s access to high-performance chips and advanced computing power, and limit the development of Chinese AI technologies, Luo Shixiong recalls.
In response, Chinese companies were forced to find alternative ways to train AI models. It was DeepSeek that developed a highly efficient AI model based on limited-performance chips, proving that the US technological blockade only encouraged China to breakthrough in independent innovation.
DeepSeek’s success has become a powerful impetus for achieving global “tech equality,” the article says. DeepSeek has broken the US scientific and technological monopoly in this area, making AI accessible and applicable to all countries.
The policy of blockade and containment will not only fail to reduce any threats, but, on the contrary, will undermine the global competitiveness of the United States, writes Luo Shixiong.
“The US must realize that by setting a ceiling for other countries’ development, they are ultimately sealing their own growth space. If they really want to maintain their leading position in high-tech industries, they should accept and respect the principles of fair competition,” the Chinese diplomat emphasizes. –0–
