Beijing, December 25 (Xinhua) — Amid a lack of action on global climate governance, China will continue to take a responsible approach and work with other countries to address challenges, overcome difficulties, and promote global sustainable development, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Lin Jian said on Thursday.

According to media reports, the American journal Science recently published its list of the top 10 scientific breakthroughs of 2025. "The seemingly unstoppable growth of renewable energy" topped the list, and this breakthrough was largely driven by China. As Lin Jian noted, China holds leading positions in areas such as solar panel production, wind turbines, and lithium batteries.

“This once again proves that China’s contribution to the global green energy transition is obvious to everyone,” the diplomat stated.

Pointing out that green development is a distinctive feature of Chinese-style modernization, the Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson pointed out that among all countries, China has created the most complete policy system for reducing carbon emissions and the largest renewable energy system.

According to Lin Jian, the installed capacity of new-generation energy storage systems in China has exceeded 100 million kW, accounting for over 40 percent of the global total. China has become one of the countries with one of the fastest rates of energy intensity reduction in the world.

Lin Jian noted that during the 14th Five-Year Plan period (2021-2025), China's wind power and photovoltaic products helped other countries reduce carbon emissions by approximately 4.1 billion tons. China is actively sharing the fruits of its green development and providing assistance to countries in the Global South, the diplomat emphasized.

As of October this year, China has signed 55 memorandums of understanding on climate change with 43 developing countries, implemented more than 300 capacity-building programs, and trained over 10,000 people from over 120 developing countries, a Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson added.

BEIJING, Dec. 25 (Xinhua) — China's Defense Ministry on Thursday called on all peace-loving countries and peoples to take joint action to curb the resurgence of militarism by Japanese right-wing forces.

Chinese Defense Ministry spokesman Zhang Xiaogang made the statement in response to a request from reporters to comment on recent statements by Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi and another high-ranking Japanese official regarding Japan's nuclear weapons.

Furthermore, a recent report from Japan's Ministry of Defense criticized China for its "rapidly rising defense spending" and "growing activities near Japan." It also mentioned Japan's plans to deploy mobile radar equipment to Okinawa by 2026 to monitor Chinese military activity.

Noting that China's defense spending is reasonable, moderate, and its share of GDP is below the world average, Zhang Xiaogang stated that the actions of the Chinese military in the said maritime areas are fully consistent with international law and widespread international practice and do not allow interference or provocation.

"We urge Japan to cease its false statements and cease its targeted military deployment against China. We will take decisive countermeasures against any harassment or provocation," the official representative emphasized.

Zhang Xiaogang also warned of an increasingly visible and dangerous trend of resurgent Japanese militarism as Japan steadily pursues remilitarization and accelerates its military buildup.

According to him, these actions represent a clear challenge to the foundations of international justice, the international order established after World War II, and the global nuclear non-proliferation regime, creating a serious threat to peace and stability in the region and beyond.

"We call on all peace-loving countries and peoples to take action to resolutely curb the resurgence of militarism by Japan's right-wing forces and prevent the world from plunging into chaos or reliving the tragedies of the past," Zhang Xiaogang said. -0-

TIANJIN, December 25 (Xinhua) — At the SCO summit held in Tianjin, northern China, China announced the establishment of six practical cooperation platforms, three of which are located in Tianjin. From their official opening on September 2 to December 10, the China-SCO Green Industry Cooperation Platform, the China-SCO Digital Economy Cooperation Platform, and the China-SCO Vocational Education Cooperation Center, all located in Tianjin, marked 100 days of operation.

In the lobby of the China-SCO Vocational Education Cooperation Center, the numerous results of this collaboration are astounding: China has built 12 Lu Ban workshops in nine SCO countries, including Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan; the EPIP training model, developed in Tianjin, is promoting vocational education in SCO countries; and a platform for applying artificial intelligence technologies in industrial applications, created in China, has been implemented at the L.N. Gumilyov Eurasian National University in Kazakhstan.

On September 2, the opening ceremony of the China-SCO Vocational Education Cooperation Center was held at Tianjin Vocational Normal University. The center's secretariat, located at the university, is responsible for the specific tasks of its establishment and day-to-day operations.

"The goal of establishing the cooperation center is to deepen cooperation between SCO countries in the field of vocational education, expand academic exchanges and cooperation in education and scientific research, improve the overall level of vocational education and training in various countries, and promote the socio-economic development of SCO member countries," said Zhao Wenping, Director of the Institute of Vocational Education at Tianjin Vocational Normal University.

In the corridor of the secretariat's office area, a five-meter wall with a work schedule catches the eye – a tight schedule and several tasks being carried out in parallel form a visual "Gantt chart".

Longer-term efforts are also ongoing: deepening the integration of education and industry in SCO countries, conducting international training for technical specialists and qualified personnel, enhancing the competencies of vocational education teachers, promoting international certification, and developing standards in this area.

"By sharing high-quality resources and standards of Chinese vocational education, we are facilitating the joint creation and implementation of a vocational education system adapted to regional development. Moreover, through educational cooperation, we are strengthening the foundation for rapprochement between peoples, promoting exchanges and the interpenetration of various cultures," noted Mi Jing, Vice-Rector of Tianjin Vocational Normal University.
