Zhao Jinwei: What is behind the UK’s decisive stance on Huawei?
US President Donald Trump was furious when his friend, British Prime minister Boris Johnson, decided to give Huawei a role in building the UK's 5G infrastructure. German Chancellor Angela Merkel seems to be going a similar direction in a position paper announced yesterday. Chinese academic Zhang Jingwei ponders the UK's move and thinks ahead to implications that it may have on the UK's wider relations with China and the US.

Slawomir Majman: Have confidence in resilience of China's economy

We have common duties and common destiny", President Xi has said. The epidemic is a great test of the Chinese authorities efficiency but equally a powerful and magnificent test of nations solidarity and cooperation.

Ding Gang: Foreign perceptions won't influence China
What the outside world sees from the epidemic is not static but dynamic. The situation in China is undergoing rapid changes. It is these changes that will eventually break preconceived views and give the world a more comprehensive understanding of China. Today's China is still in its developing phase and one of the main challenges in the future will be how it tackles its domestic problems. China's development is not determined by how the outside world sees China, but how China remains firm on its chosen path. In this process, it is of vital importance that China's governance system should advance with the times and have a strong ability to self-correct.

Willism Jones: There's no doubt China will bounce back from epidemic's impact
There has been a great outpouring of sympathy for China throughout the world in the wake of the sudden outbreak of the novel coronavirus pneumonia. But, at the same time, those forces in the West who have been adamantly opposed to the admission of China into the pantheon of world powers, have seen this catastrophe as an opportunity to throw new obstacles in the path of China's rise.

William Jones: Pompeo takes his China-bashing to the National Governors Association
The U.S. Secretary of State deals primarily with issues of foreign policy, requiring a great deal of international travel, but Mike Pompeo is also spending quite a lot of time at home, with the particular goal of warning Americans about the "China threat." Pompeo's campaigning perhaps has other aims as well as he is no doubt considering his options post-Trump administration with his own ambitions at higher office.

John Ross: Realism and clear-headed thinking a must in the coronavirus crisis
If the coronavirus is not contained it is a serious threat to the whole of humanity in every country. But so far the decisive actions of the Chinese government, which have been strongly praised by the World Health Organisation and other responsible international bodies, are containing that threat. The suffering in Hubei province is intense and tension is naturally great throughout China’s medical teams, who are the front line not only for their country but for humanity, battle to contain the virus. Not only China but the whole world is entirely depending on them.

Zlatko Lagumdzija：A letter to China: After the rain, the sun comes up
My dear friends, colleagues, people of China, people who are suffering and struggling with coronavirus that is deadly menacing while lurking in the darkness.Your courage and patience, hard work and empathy, knowledge and wisdom is not only hope for saving your great nation but for the rest of the world as well. Today you are the first line of global defense of humanity under the grim shadow of the novel pandemic.There is a tide in the affairs of men. Which taken at the flood, leads on to fortune. Omitted, all the voyage of their life is bound in shallows and in miseries. On such a full sea are we now afloat. And we must take the current when it serves, or lose our ventures

Helga Zepp-LaRouche: China deserves praise, cooperation in fight against coronavirus
To call any virus a "Chinese" virus is as silly as to say that it is someone's fault if he catches the flu or gets sick in general. It can happen anywhere in the world, and it can happen to every person on the planet. The lesson from this recent case of the reaction to the outbreak of the coronavirus is that it shows who in the international community is capable of responding to dangers that threaten all of humanity, and who is a troglodyte, and who is not.

Ding Gang: Public awareness helps curb epidemic, rumors
"No public health gain is achieved without a battle." The recent outbreak of the novel coronavirus reminded me of these words of American M.D. Milton I. Roemer, which are printed on the back cover of a book I read several years ago - The Healthiest City: Milwaukee and the Politics of Health Reform, published in 1996.

William Jones: The psy-war attitude towards China during the coronavirus crisis must cease
The outbreak of the coronavirus in Wuhan caught everyone by surprise. At the beginning of the Spring Festival holiday travel, the danger of a rapid spread was particularly dangerous. At the point it was discovered, the reaction of the government was swift and comprehensive, both with regard to prevention as well as detection. The Chinese government is following the development of the disease closely from the get-go and have taken extraordinary measures at the national level to deal with the crisis. All Spring Festival celebrations were canceled for the sake of people's health.

Danilo Türk: Int'l cooperation against coronavirus is urgently needed
Now is a good time to remind the world leaders of the half-finished debates of the past two decades and of the need to strengthen the international cooperation for an adequate protection against the global spreading of infectious diseases.Peace is more than a mere absence of a global war. Peace requires much more and protection of lives against epidemics must be a priority. This is not a time for futile criticism of globalization, but rather a time for strengthened multilateral cooperation, which alone can secure a peaceful and a more prosperous world.

Ding Gang: Why isn’t the BRI a strategy of China?
Western strategists have intentionally or unintentionally ignored the fact that China has not called the "Belt and Road" a strategy, but an initiative. One of the reasons is that the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) is not China-centric, nor to create an alliance. BRI is a cooperative initiative targeted at development. It aims to build a platform to achieve joint development with other countries. China does not engage in building a closed circle excluding other countries.

William Jones: U.S. Congress has no say in the future of Tibet
It's not the first time that Congress has shown an interest in the region. In 2002, Congress passed the Tibet Policy Act, which called for political discussions between China and the Dalai Lama who had spent an awful lot of time soft-soaping U.S. legislators on the issue.
