Moscow, November 18 (Xinhua) — Member states of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) on Tuesday said they reject any unilateral coercive measures that violate international law and hinder international cooperation.

In a joint communiqué published following the 24th meeting of the SCO Heads of Government Council, the heads of delegations emphasized that the SCO countries oppose any unilateral coercive measures, including economic ones, that contradict the UN Charter and other norms of international law, hinder international cooperation, and impede the achievement of the UN Sustainable Development Goals.

According to the document, SCO member states will resolutely defend an open, transparent, fair, inclusive, equitable, and non-discriminatory multilateral trading system.

In addition, the parties declared their intention to actively promote the improvement of the global financial governance system and strengthen the role of developing countries in international financial institutions.

The heads of delegations noted that international relations are currently undergoing profound historical changes.

As stated in the communiqué, the status of the countries of the Global South is constantly growing, and their role as a new political and economic center is becoming increasingly visible, which creates opportunities both for the development of all countries themselves and for equal and mutually beneficial international cooperation.

The parties also expressed deep concern about the increasing fragmentation of the global economy.

They reaffirmed their commitment to further improving the system of global economic governance and strengthening the multilateral trading system, with the World Trade Organization at its core.

The communiqué emphasizes that member states intend to promote the formation of a broad and open economic space in the region, advance equal and mutually beneficial cooperation, ensure the effective functioning of markets, supply chains, settlements and payments, transport corridors and logistics routes, as well as the stable flow of investment, goods, services and technology. –0–

Wuhan, November 19 (Xinhua) — China's first 7S store, dedicated entirely to humanoid robots, recently opened in a bustling shopping district of Wuhan, the capital of Hubei Province in central China. Its arrival not only drew crowds but also demonstrated how Chinese robotics is moving from the lab directly into shopping malls, creating a new ecosystem for industry and consumers.

The store, operated by the Hubei Provincial Humanoid Robot Innovation Center, features a wide range of robots capable of performing a wide variety of tasks, from cashiering and patient care to industrial assembly and entertainment. All products are sourced from the local Hubei production chain. Visitors can not only purchase on-site but also customize features, arrange for financial support, and take advantage of a comprehensive one-stop service.

The "7S" concept is an evolution of the traditional "4S" automotive model – Sales, Service, Spare Parts, and Survey. Three new functions have been added: Solution, Show, and School.

"From smart gadgets with artificial intelligence to humanoid robots and accessories, we offer more than 70 products," said Li Zhengxiang, chairman of the board of the aforementioned center. "Our goal is to make advanced technologies accessible to everyone."

The store's products range in price from 19.9 yuan (approximately $2.80) for a hands-on experience with robots to 700,000 yuan for an advanced humanoid robot, satisfying consumer needs at various levels. Among them, the Photon H1 humanoid robot, developed by Guanggu Dongzhi, has a starting price of 550,000 yuan. This model won the first gold medal at the inaugural World Humanoid Robot Games in August 2025.

In addition to retail sales, the store serves as an educational hub. It offers courses for operations and maintenance engineers, as well as programming programs for schoolchildren. In a special interaction zone, children can play soccer with humanoid robots or watch exciting boxing matches between machines for a small fee.

Wuhan is rapidly becoming one of the key hubs of China's humanoid robotics industry. The city is currently home to six manufacturers of finished robotic systems, over 80 key enterprises, and nearly 1,000 companies in related industries.

The city is also actively promoting the implementation of humanoid robots in sectors such as automotive manufacturing, pharmaceutical logistics, and smart home appliance manufacturing. Several demonstration production lines and model factories have already been built.

According to local officials, a 1 billion yuan industry investment fund will be established in Wuhan to further support the development of businesses in this field. Furthermore, efforts will be made to build a 100 billion yuan humanoid robot industrial cluster by 2027.

The Wuhan store is part of a nationwide trend of opening robotics showrooms.

In July of this year, the world's first 6S robot store opened in Shenzhen, Guangdong Province, a technology hub in southern China. A month later, Robot Mall opened in Beijing – a 4,000-square-meter 4S store featuring over 50 products, from medical and industrial robots to companion robots.

An industry report predicts that the humanoid robot market in China will reach 8.239 billion yuan this year, accounting for 50% of the global market. By 2045, more than 100 million humanoid robots are expected to be deployed in China across various industries, generating a total market value of approximately 10 trillion yuan.

"The development of humanoid robots in China is proceeding extremely rapidly. The speed at which they have advanced from laboratory development to practical application has exceeded all expectations. In the future, they should be deployed not only in factories but also in millions of households, serving thousands of industries and sectors," stated Li Zhengxiang. He believes that another five to eight years of technological development and refinement will be needed before humanoid robots truly enter households. -0-

BEIJING, Nov. 18 (Xinhua) — China's Ministry of Commerce on Tuesday said the United States' recent revision of its patent rules discriminatoryly restricts the legal rights of Chinese companies.

This statement was made in response to a media inquiry about a memorandum issued by the United States Patent and Trademark Office. According to the memorandum, the transparency rules surrounding patent invalidation applications are being amended, primarily with regard to the review of applications filed by foreign-owned entities.

According to a Ministry of Commerce official, this step, taken in the interests of so-called national security, violates the United States' international obligations to protect intellectual property and amounts to discriminatory restrictions on the legitimate rights of Chinese enterprises.

He added that Chinese authorities will closely monitor the development of the situation and take all necessary measures to resolutely protect the legitimate rights and interests of domestic companies. –0–
