Moscow, November 13 (Xinhua) — Russian-German relations are at their lowest point since the founding of the Federal Republic of Germany. This was stated on Thursday during a meeting between Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Dmitry Lyubinsky and representatives of the leadership of the international public organization Russia-Germany Society. The corresponding information was released by the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

During the meeting, it was noted that Berlin had placed its bets on a policy of revenge and the severing of the multifaceted ties between the two countries that had been developing over decades, intending to inflict a “strategic defeat” on Russia.

As has been emphasized, at a time when German diplomats and some of their other colleagues have been voting in New York for several years now against a draft resolution of the Third Committee of the UN General Assembly dedicated to the fight against the glorification of Nazism and neo-Nazism, and the spirit of “Prussian militarism” is once again hovering over Berlin, German claims to “leadership” are causing rejection and repulsive historical parallels not only among broad sections of the Russian public, but also among political forces in various corners of Europe.

Representatives of the Russia-Germany Society, for their part, expressed their readiness to maintain contacts with German civil society from among political forces focused on the joint construction of a peaceful and secure Eurasia with Russia. –0–

BEIJING, November 13 (Xinhua) — China sincerely hopes that Thailand and Cambodia can exercise restraint and prevent any escalation, Foreign Ministry spokesman Lin Jian said on Thursday.

According to media reports, on November 11, Thailand announced it was suspending the implementation of the joint declaration on peace on the Thai-Cambodia border after Thai soldiers were injured in a mine explosion near the Thai-Cambodian border on November 10. On the afternoon of November 12, Thai soldiers opened fire in Cambodia's Banteay Meanchey Province, resulting in civilian casualties.

Answering a question at a regular press briefing, Lin Jian said China has noted some new circumstances and problems that have arisen in the implementation of the joint declaration between Thailand and Cambodia.

The Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson emphasized that, as a friend and neighbor of both countries, China sincerely hopes that both sides can exercise restraint, move toward each other, conduct friendly consultations, effectively utilize existing bilateral mechanisms, and find a mutually acceptable solution as soon as possible to prevent further escalation.

China will continue to play a constructive role in helping to ease tensions in its own way, Lin Jian added. –0–

JOHANNESBURG, November 13 (Xinhua) — Global leadership has been in turmoil for decades, as leading countries have failed to effectively respond to mounting crises and global chaos, according to a report released Thursday by the Xinhua Think Tank.

According to the report, titled "Collaborating to Create a New Global Leadership: Collective Action to Transition to a Fairer and Smarter System of Global Governance," the stability of the international order depends on the institutional authority and moral legitimacy of leading powers. It notes that one of the fundamental principles of the contemporary international order is that major countries should play a leading role.

To achieve this goal, the authors emphasize, large countries should possess the “virtue of compromise” and the “spirit of generosity” and, as British political scientist Hedley Bull put it, “meet demands for certain just changes in the world.”

However, at a time when the world is beset by multiple crises and most needs leadership from responsible large countries, we instead see great powers failing to live up to their responsibilities and violating existing norms, the report says.

As the authors point out, from the UN system to the Bretton Woods institutions, the United States played a leading role in shaping the international order after World War II. But amid the rise of various "isms"—populism, conservatism, racism, and exclusivism—the United States is now "abandoning the very world it created" and continues to unleash destructive forces.

The report argues that the rapid rise of the "America First" concept and the MAGA (Make America Great Again) movement is rooted in deep political and economic divisions within the United States itself.

At the same time, the authors add, from a political-economic point of view, the deficit in global leadership is the result of the impact on the modern world of two layers of double tension – the tension between the surge of modern crises and the reduction of governance capabilities and the tension between the economic base of the world and its political superstructure.

Johannesburg, November 13 (Xinhua) — The international community urgently needs a new type of global leadership, according to a report released Thursday by the Xinhua Analytical Center, a national think tank.

As noted in the report, “Building a New Kind of Global Leadership Together: Collective Action to Transition to a Fairer and Smarter System of Global Governance,” 2025 will be seen by posterity as a landmark year in human history and the evolution of the international order.

Two significant dates—the 80th anniversary of Victory in the World Anti-Fascist War and the 80th anniversary of the founding of the UN—remind us that world peace did not come easy, and human cohesion is priceless, the report emphasizes.

According to the report, the world is currently facing a global leadership deficit, the symptoms of which are loss of peace, imbalances in development, and discord between civilizations.

The paper examines the formation of “global leadership” from the perspective of the evolution of the modern international order and attempts to give this concept, originally associated with human resource management in the economy, a new political scientific meaning.

It is argued that global leadership serves as the guiding force in the global governance system and represents an organic synthesis of coordination among major powers and broadly understood multilateralism. It relies on three core multilateral cooperation mechanisms in the areas of security, financial, and trade governance, and includes four key elements: leadership in multilateral cooperation, the ability to provide public goods, the ability to shape institutional rules, and moral appeal.

Johannesburg, November 13 (Xinhua) — Building a new type of global leadership has become an "urgent task" for the international community to effectively overcome global crises and lead all countries onto a new path of shared development and prosperity, according to a report released Thursday by the Xinhua Analytica Center, a national think tank.

The report, titled “Building a New Kind of Global Leadership Together: Collective Action to Shift to a Fairer and Smarter System of Global Governance,” notes that the fundamental strategy for building new global leadership is to shift from a hegemonic logic to a win-win logic.

The authors conclude that the international community needs a new type of global leadership, capable of responding powerfully and effectively to global challenges and leading humanity to a better future.

As the report explains, the new type of global leadership must be an improved model of the global leadership system that emerged after World War II.

To achieve this, it is necessary to consider universal values as a coordinate system, the four global initiatives put forward by China as a systemic plan, the formation of an equal and orderly multipolar world and inclusive economic globalization that benefits everyone as a vector of transformation, and the construction of a community with a shared future for humanity as a vision for the future, the report states. –0–

Johannesburg, November 13 (Xinhua) — The Xinhua Center, a national think tank, published a report on Thursday titled "Collaboratively Building a New Type of Global Leadership: Collective Actions to Transition to a Fairer and Smarter Global Governance System." The report was presented at the Conference on China-Africa Partnership of the High-Level Forum of Media and Think Tanks of the Global South.

As the report notes, the international community urgently needs a new type of global leadership. This "new type of global leadership" does not emanate from a single country, a single group of countries, or a single international organization, but rather represents multilateral leadership—a collaborative force formed by the international community to proactively respond to global challenges.

According to the report, the world is currently facing a global leadership deficit, the symptoms of which are loss of peace, imbalances in development, and discord between civilizations.

It is pointed out that the fundamental strategy for jointly building a “new type of global leadership” to address this deficit is to overcome the logic of dominance through the logic of symbiosis.

The report outlines four key paths to building such leadership: adopting universal values as a frame of reference; considering China's four global initiatives as a systemic plan; promoting an equitable and orderly multipolar world and inclusive economic globalization that benefits all as a vector of transformation; and building a community with a shared future for humanity as a vision for the future.

The report was presented at the conference by Lü Yansong, Editor-in-Chief of the Xinhua News Agency and Deputy Chairman of the Academic Council of the Xinhua National Analytical Center. The two-day event, which runs until November 14, is dedicated to strengthening global governance and deepening China-Africa cooperation.

Over 200 representatives from more than 160 leading media outlets, think tanks, government agencies and other institutions from China and 41 African countries, as well as the African Union, gathered in Johannesburg, South Africa, to participate in discussions on “Reforming Global Governance: New Roles and New Missions of China-Africa Cooperation.” –0–

BEIRUT, Nov. 13 (Xinhua) — Ahead of the planned withdrawal of UN peacekeeping forces from southern Lebanon, President Joseph Aoun on Thursday called on France and other European countries to provide military support to the Lebanese army.

J. Aoun made this appeal during a conversation with Anne-Claire Legendre, political adviser to French President Emmanuel Macron, noting that the army needs more than moral support to carry out its tasks.

"Spiritual support alone is not enough for the Lebanese army to fully fulfill its role. It needs equipment and military mechanisms," J. Aoun was quoted as saying in a statement from his office.

According to the president, after the withdrawal of the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL), which is scheduled to begin in early 2026, responsibility for ensuring security in the south of the country will fall entirely on the Lebanese army.

J. Aoun welcomed European assistance, which could provide a stabilizing presence and operational support. The number of Lebanese troops on the southern border is expected to increase to 10,000 by the end of the year.

A.-K. Legendre, for her part, conveyed Emmanuel Macron's greetings and reaffirmed France's commitment to supporting Lebanon, including reconstruction and military assistance. She promised that France would coordinate its actions with the Lebanese authorities to stabilize the situation in the south of the country.

UNIFIL has been present in southern Lebanon since 1978, supporting the Lebanese government in effectively governing the area. Its mandate expires in December 2026. –0–
