  • MIL-OSI China: China publishes Han-Tibetan version of major dictionary

    Source: People’s Republic of China – State Council News

    China attaches great importance to the use of the Tibetan language, as evidenced by the recent publication of a key bilingual dictionary.

    On Friday, the Han-Tibetan version of the Modern Chinese Dictionary, compiled and translated over 13 years, was jointly published by China Tibetology Publishing House and The Commercial Press, according to the ethnic and religious affairs commission of Qinghai Province.

    Against the backdrop of rapid social development, Tibetan people have shown a growing desire to learn the national standard Chinese (Han language) while also preserving their own. However, authoritative and user-friendly Han-Tibetan reference books have been scarce, prompting Qinghai — a province with a large Tibetan population — to launch the translation project.

    The three-volume dictionary has over 70,000 Chinese entries and 200,000 Tibetan entries, totaling more than 10 million characters. While featuring vocabulary, explanations and example sentences with concise, accurate and practical translations, it also integrates word forms and meaning transformations in line with Tibetan grammatical rules.

    This dictionary serves as an authoritative language tool in Tibetan-inhabited areas, providing valuable resources for education and cultural exchange and contributing to China’s efforts in promoting ethnic exchanges and integration, according to the commission.

  • MIL-OSI China: Openness brings progress, closure leads to backwardness: Chinese FM on US-imposed tariffs

    Source: People’s Republic of China – State Council News

    Openness brings progress, while closure leads to backwardness, Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi said in Kuala Lumpur on Saturday when commenting on U.S.-imposed high tariffs against various countries.

    Amid the ongoing mixture of changes and chaos in the current international situation, every country must make a choice between unilateralism and multilateralism, closeness and openness, unity and division, said Wang, also a member of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China Central Committee, who was here attending the ASEAN Plus foreign ministers’ meetings in the Malaysian capital.

    China’s choice is to be more open, he stressed, explaining that this is not only the basic experience of China’s development and growth, but also the inevitable logic of history moving forward.

    China has taken the initiative to provide zero-tariff treatment for products to the least developed countries and the entire Africa, fully completed negotiations on the Version 3.0 China-ASEAN Free Trade Area, and has created a new model of cross-regional cooperation at the ASEAN-China-GCC summit, he added.

    In contrast, the high tariffs imposed on various countries are a clear violation of World Trade Organization rules, disrupting the stable operation of the production and supply chains, and hindering the recovery and development of the world economy, said the Chinese foreign minister, adding that such move is irresponsible, unpopular, and unsustainable.

    Wang said that China will continue to stand firmly with countries in the region, promoting unity, cooperation, and collective strength, and will always be an advocate of multilateralism, a defender of free trade, and a contributor to open development, he said.

  • MIL-OSI China: EU urged to respond firmly as Trump’s tariff threat sparks outrage

    Source: People’s Republic of China – State Council News

    U.S. President Donald Trump’s surprise announcement of sweeping 30 percent tariffs on European Union (EU) exports on Saturday has provoked a fierce backlash across the bloc, with officials and industry leaders demanding a strong and united response amid continued trade talks.

    The proposed tariffs, set to take effect on Aug. 1, target EU imports and were justified by Trump as a correction of a “far from reciprocal” trade relations.

    European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen warned on Saturday that the tariffs would “disrupt essential transatlantic supply chains, to the detriment of businesses, consumers and patients on both sides of the Atlantic.”

    While emphasizing the EU’s continued commitment to a negotiated solution, she said the bloc “will take all necessary steps to safeguard EU interests, including the adoption of proportionate countermeasures if required.”

    European lawmakers and national leaders voiced growing frustration, with many urging immediate retaliatory steps.

    Bernd Lange, chair of the European Parliament’s committee on international trade, said the U.S. letter is “both impertinent and a slap in the face” after weeks of negotiations.

    He urged the EU to begin retaliatory measures on Monday as scheduled, stating that “the period of waiting is over.”

    European Council President Antonio Costa said the tariffs would drive inflation, fuel uncertainty and stall growth. “The EU remains firm, united and ready to protect our interests,” he said, urging progress toward a “fair agreement” with Washington.

    French President Emmanuel Macron expressed his “strong disapproval” of the U.S. move, and said the EU must speed up preparing “credible countermeasures” using all tools, including anti-coercion, available if talks fail.

    Swedish Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson condemned the move as a “unilateral escalation,” and said the EU is prepared to respond with tough countermeasures if necessary.

    “Everyone loses out from an escalated trade conflict, and it will be U.S. consumers who pay the highest price,” he warned.

    Czech Prime Minister Petr Fiala criticized the U.S. tariffs for negatively impacting transatlantic trade and called for “unity and determination” to protect the EU’s interests.

    European industries voiced alarm over the fallout, particularly in sectors tightly integrated with the U.S. market.

    Germany’s major industry lobby group, the BDI, called the U.S. move “an alarm signal,” warning that it could derail recovery and undermine innovation on both sides of the Atlantic.

    “Tariffs as a means of exerting political pressure lead to higher costs, jeopardize jobs and undermine international competitiveness, both in Europe and in the United States,” said Wolfgang Niedermark, a senior BDI executive.

    Isabel Schnabel, a European Central Bank board member, said the tariffs could trigger medium-term inflation and supply chain shocks.

    The automotive sector, which is already deeply integrated with the EU and the U.S., is already feeling the pain.

    Slovakia, one of Europe’s top car-exporting nations, reported a noticeable drop in orders for the coming third quarter. Economy Minister Denisa Sakova said relocating production to the U.S. was not feasible in the short term and emphasized that the damage had already begun.

    The German Association of the Automotive Industry (VDA) said the cost to manufacturers was already in the billions and climbing daily.

    “It is regrettable that there is a threat of a further escalation of the trade conflict,” said VDA President Hildegard Mueller.

    “The costs for our companies are already in the billions, and the sum is growing every day,” she said, noting that suppliers were also significantly affected by the import duties.

    Emanuele Orsini, president of Confindustria, Italy’s major association representing manufacturing and service companies, condemned the U.S. approach as “unpleasant,” while Paolo Mascarino, president of the Italian food and drink industry federation Federalimentare, said the tariffs “exceed any threshold of tolerability” and would trigger significant drops in exports.

    Dan O’Brien, chief economist at the Institute of International and European Affairs, said the U.S. move was “provocative” and significantly raised the risk of a wider economic confrontation between the two economies.

  • MIL-OSI China: Chinese FM elaborates on South China Sea issue

    Source: People’s Republic of China – State Council News

    Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi on Saturday spoke to reporters about the South China Sea issue in response to questions while attending annual ASEAN Plus foreign ministers’ meetings in Kuala Lumpur.

    Wang, also a member of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China Central Committee, said that the South China Sea issue is discussed every year at the meetings, and this year was no exception. “What struck me most this time is the clear temperature difference between regional countries and a few countries from outside the region.”

    At the China-ASEAN foreign ministers’ meeting, the discussion on the South China Sea was held in a more calm and confident manner, becasse compared with other seas in the world, the South China Sea is clearly stable. There are no problems with freedom of navigation and overflight, Wang said

    Some countries outside the region continue to make irresponsible remarks about the South China Sea. Although their tone has notably softened this year, they have not stopped, he said, adding tt seems they fear the South China Sea will not be chaotic. Regional countries are now well aware of these “old tricks.”

    Wang said he proposed that a new narrative should be built for the South China Sea. We should not always associate the South China Sea with friction, conflict, or confrontation, but with peace, stability, and cooperation. This should become the mainstream narrative in the future, stated the Chinese foreign minister.

    China and ASEAN countries are working toward this direction, he said, adding there is still one country that seems out of sync with the others, but I believe it will come to eventually understand. Acting as a pawn for others will only lead to being sacrificed.

    Wang said that China and ASEAN countries have agreed to upgrade the Declaration on the Conduct of Parties in the South China Sea (DOC) by formulating a Code of Conduct (COC) that is effective, substantive, and consistent with international law.

    All sides also agreed to strive to conclude the COC as scheduled next year, he said. In the next stage, consultations will become more frequent, and the process will speed up. We have the confidence, capability, and wisdom to maintain stability in the South China Sea, remove external interference, and jointly build the South China Sea into a sea of peace, friendship, and cooperation.

    Wang emphasized that during the meetings, he also elaborated on China’s position regarding the so-called South China Sea arbitration case. This arbitration case has serious flaws in terms of fact-finding and application of law. It carried out actions that violated the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea under the name of the convention itself, and its damage to regional peace and stability as well as the maritime order has become increasingly evident.

    Wang stated that we must ask: if compulsory arbitration can be abused, is there still value in diplomatic efforts? Should bilateral consultations be abandoned? Do commitments under the DOC still count? If territorial sovereignty and maritime demarcation issues are submitted for arbitration, should the exclusive declarations under the convention still be respected? Does an agreement between China and the Philippines to resolve disputes through dialogue still hold? And if all islands and reefs in the South China Sea are denied maritime entitlements, should the world’s maritime map be redrawn?

    In fact, this so-called arbitration case is a political manipulation and should be thrown into the trash heap of history, Wang said.

    Beijing plans to develop two to three new landmark integrated consumption hubs by 2030, with each targeting annual sales revenue of over 100 billion yuan (about 14 billion U.S. dollars) by blending consumption scenarios of culture, commerce, tourism and sports, the municipal commerce bureau has announced.

    Beijing has implemented a consumption stimulus action plan, aiming to achieve an average annual growth of around 5 percent in total market consumption by 2030.

    The Chinese capital’s move is designed to further strengthen its global influence in consumption market, enhance resource allocation efficiency, and reinforce its pioneering role in consumption innovation, according to the bureau.

    The plan encompasses more than 20 specific measures across multiple dimensions, including initiatives to boost household incomes while alleviating financial burdens, enhance service consumption experiences, invigorate commodity consumption, expand consumption value chains, create diversified integrated spaces, and optimize the consumption environment.

    In July 2021, China approved Shanghai, Beijing, Guangzhou, Tianjin and Chongqing to take the lead in building international consumption center cities.

    By the end of 2024, Beijing had developed more than 60 shopping districts, which received 2.67 billion visitors last year, a year-on-year increase of 10.7 percent.

    ANKARA, July 13 (Xinhua) — Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan on Saturday declared a “new page” in Turkey’s history as the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK) begins the process of disarmament.

    “As of yesterday, the 47-year-old terror has entered the phase of cessation. Turkey has begun to close a long, painful chapter filled with pain and tears,” Erdogan said, addressing members of his ruling Justice and Development Party in the Kizilcahamam district of Ankara province.

    A group of PKK militants burned their weapons in a symbolic ceremony in Iraq’s northern Sulaymaniyah province on Friday.

    “From now on we will sit down and talk – not with weapons or violence, not about conflicts, but about unity, brotherhood and personal dialogue, removing the obstacle of terror,” he said.

    According to Turkey’s semi-official Anadolu Agency, the disarmament ceremony was attended by Iraqi officials, representatives of Turkey’s National Intelligence Organization, the Kurdistan Regional Government, security forces, civil society organizations and media.

    The PKK, listed as a terrorist organization by Turkey, the United States and the European Union, has been rebelling against the Turkish government for more than four decades.

    Türkiye regularly carries out military operations against PKK militants in northern Iraq, where the group has its hideouts. –0–

  • MIL-OSI China: China’s largest natural uranium project produces first barrel

    Source: People’s Republic of China – State Council News

    China National Nuclear Corporation (CNNC) announced Saturday that the country’s largest natural uranium project has produced its first barrel of uranium, marking a new phase of sustainable and smart uranium mining in China.

    Located in Ordos in north China’s Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, the “National No.1 Uranium” demonstration project, the country’s largest natural uranium production base by capacity and built to the highest standards, has also set a new record for construction speed, having been completed just one year after breaking ground.

    “This demonstration project is a major achievement in China’s third-generation uranium mining and processing technology,” said Yuan Xu, chairman of China National Uranium Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of CNNC.

    He added that the project features key elements of modern uranium mining, including a strong focus on environmental protection, remote control operations, intelligent analysis, and enhanced quality and efficiency.

    Through full-process digitalization and intelligent analysis, the project has made uranium mining more predictable and controllable, according to Yuan.

    China’s total nuclear power generation capacity — including units in operation, under construction, or officially approved — ranks first in the world, according to the China Energy Research Society.

    The technologies used in the demonstration project are expected to be fully applied and rapidly scaled across uranium development in China’s northern basins to support the creation of additional large-scale uranium mining bases, according to the CNNC.

  • MIL-OSI New Zealand: War veteran’s grandson reunited with medals

    War medals stolen from the mailbox of a veteran’s grandson in Wellsford earlier this month have been found and returned to their rightful owner.

    On 9 July, Patrick Conlon made a report to Police after a valuable parcel was allegedly stolen from his mailbox.

    Mr Conlon was understandably very upset by the theft – the parcel contained World War I medals that had been awarded to his grandfather, Elmer James Conlon.

    Police established that the parcel had been delivered on 1 July, but had then gone missing before Mr Conlon could collect it.

    Police appealed to the public for any information that could help locate the medals, or for any locals to report if they’d seen any suspicious activity in the area on the date of the theft.

    Thankfully, yesterday, Police were contacted by the Wellsford War memorial museum staff advising that the medals had been located in their returns bin.

    Senior Sergeant Damian Lawn says it appears someone had dropped them off overnight.

    “We’re pleased that whoever took these medals did the right thing and returned them – obviously they are hugely significant to Mr Conlon and we are glad to be able to reunite him with them.

    “We have fingerprinted the medals before returning them and we are continuing with our enquiries.”

    Anyone who has any further information about the theft or those involved is asked to get in touch through our 105 service, using reference number 250709/8286.
