KUALA LUMPUR, July 11 (Xinhua) — The 15th East Asia Summit (EAS) foreign ministers' meeting was held in Kuala Lumpur on Friday. Speaking at the summit, Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi called on all parties to enhance mutual understanding and trust, maintain peace and stability, and promote development and prosperity.

This year marks the 20th anniversary of the East Asia Summit. Wang Yi, also a member of the Politburo of the CPC Central Committee, put forward three proposals on behalf of the Chinese side:

First, return to dialogue. Wang Yi expressed hope that all parties would respect each other, communicate in good faith, and focus on strengthening mutual understanding and cooperation. China supports the adoption of a commemorative declaration on the occasion of the 20th anniversary of the summit, which will determine the vector of its future development.

Second, return to development. The best choice for all parties is to expand the cooperation “pie” and share the benefits of development. China is ready to cooperate with all participating countries to implement the action plan of the East Asia Summit and stimulate the growth of regional dynamics, the Chinese diplomat assured.

Third, return to openness. China supports the ASEAN-led regional cooperation framework, firmly upholds the multilateral trading system, builds a regional network of high-level free trade areas, and promotes regional integration. China opposes the introduction of a Cold War mentality and bloc confrontation in the region, and the establishment of closed and exclusive "small circles," Wang Yi emphasized.

On the Taiwan issue, the Chinese Foreign Minister stressed that the root cause of tension in the Taiwan Strait is the increasingly active separatist actions in favor of "Taiwan independence" and the support and connivance of external forces. The Chinese diplomat said that genuine concern for peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait requires resolute opposition to the spread of "Taiwan independence" forces.

Wang Yi noted that safeguarding national sovereignty and territorial integrity is the sacred mission of every country. He expressed the hope that all countries will unswervingly adhere to the one-China principle, oppose any form of support for "Taiwan independence," and support China's efforts to achieve complete national reunification.

At the summit, the Chinese Foreign Minister also explained China's tough stance on the South China Sea issue. –0–

KUALA LUMPUR, July 11 (Xinhua) — Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi attended the 32nd ASEAN Regional Forum (ARF) Foreign Ministers' Meeting on Friday.

As Wang Yi, also a member of the Politburo of the CPC Central Committee, noted, the development of the Asia-Pacific region has benefited from the peaceful and stable environment in the region, and this should be cherished.

Noting that the ARF, as an important multilateral security platform in the region, bears significant responsibility for maintaining regional peace and stability, Wang Yi said that China welcomes the proposal to strengthen the role of the ARF and enhance confidence-building measures.

Wang Yi stressed the need to ensure the stable development of the Asia-Pacific region and ensure that the ARF continues to play its due role. China's position is to adhere to the concept of joint, comprehensive, cooperative and sustainable security, promote the construction of a balanced, effective and sustainable security architecture, actively build an Asian security model based on the principle of indivisible security, seeking common ground while maintaining differences, dialogue and consultation, so as to pursue a new type of security based on dialogue, partnership and win-win rather than confrontation, alliance-building and zero-sum games, the Chinese Foreign Minister added.

Wang Yi noted that creating division and confrontation through a zero-sum mentality is contrary to the goal of maintaining security, calling for addressing both the symptoms and root causes of conflicts and wars.

The Chinese Foreign Minister pointed out that Asia calls on Eastern wisdom, which regards harmony as the highest value and envisages harmonious coexistence. It is necessary to draw wisdom from the “Bandung spirit”, find common ground and overcome differences, paying attention to the legitimate security concerns of all parties, Wang Yi added.

China hopes to work with regional countries to smooth over and resolve differences through dialogue and consultation, and inject new vitality into confidence-building measures and preventive diplomacy in all aspects of ARF activities. –0–

ULAN BATOR, July 11 (Xinhua) — Mongolia is celebrating World Horse Day to draw international attention to the importance of horses and encourage public participation in their conservation.

“Our people say: ‘The Mongolian people and Mongolian horses are one.’ Therefore, I am very pleased to inform the participants of the Naadam Festival that Mongolia has initiated World Horse Day to preserve the heritage and traditions of equestrian culture, and to highlight the role and significance of horses in the life of humanity,” said Mongolian President Ukhnaagiin Khurelsukh at the opening ceremony of the Naadam Festival.

As a representative of nomadic peoples who have preserved their equestrian culture and traditions since ancient times, Mongolian President Ukhnaagiin Khurelsukh initiated a draft UN General Assembly resolution to proclaim July 11 of each year as “World Horse Day”. The 79th session of the UN General Assembly on June 3, 2025 adopted this document.

Currently, Mongolia has a horse population of over 5 million, which is larger than the country's population. Meanwhile, there are over 57 million horses in the world. In many countries, horse breeding plays an important role in socio-economic development, contributing to the economic empowerment of rural populations and local communities through horse riding, transportation, racing, equestrian sports, tourism and recreation, as well as job creation, food production and other activities.

At the same time, horse populations and the horse breeding industry worldwide are declining due to lifestyle changes, pressures from economic fluctuations, climate change, environmental and other factors. –0–

Moscow, July 11 (Xinhua) — U.S. President Donald Trump said in an interview with NBC on Thursday that U.S. NATO allies would pay for American weapons that the alliance would later send to Ukraine. He also said he was "disappointed in Russia" and would make a "major statement on Russia" on Monday.

Since the beginning of this month, Russia has stepped up its attacks in Ukraine, and D. Trump has again changed his position on Russia. After another phone call with Russian President Vladimir Putin in early July, D. Trump said he was “unhappy” with the lack of progress in resolving the conflict in Ukraine. Then he even publicly spoke harshly about V. Putin, noting that the Russian leader’s words “sound good, but ultimately meaningless.”

Russia took D. Trump's change of position on Russia and his tough rhetoric very "calmly". The press secretary of the Russian president Dmitry Peskov recalled D. Trump's statement that the settlement of the Ukrainian conflict turned out to be much more difficult than he initially thought. "We expect to continue our dialogue with Washington and our line on repairing the badly broken bilateral relations," D. Peskov noted.

It is worth noting that the dialogue between the US and Russia was not stopped by D. Trump’s statements.

On July 10, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov met with US Secretary of State Marco Rubio in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. According to statements from both sides after the talks, although the US side expressed disappointment with Russia’s “insufficient flexibility” on the Ukrainian issue and expressed a desire to see a “road map” for ending the conflict in Ukraine, it also showed interest in the “new proposals” voiced by the Russian side for resolving the Ukrainian crisis. The Russian side, in turn, stated that both sides reaffirmed their shared desire for dialogue and cooperation at the meeting.

Analysts cite three reasons why Russia is “calm” about D. Trump’s change in position.

Firstly, Russia has become accustomed to the whims of the American president. According to D. Peskov, “we are quite calm about this… D. Trump, in general, has a rather tough style in the phrases he uses and so on.” According to Maria Butina, a member of the State Duma Committee on International Affairs, D. Trump’s opinion “changes five times a day.” Columnist Yevgeny Umerenkov also wrote in his article that D. Trump “should snap back at accusations of weakness.”

Secondly, Russia's fundamental demands and strategic goals in the Ukrainian issue have not changed. Russia has always opposed further Western aid to Ukraine and strives to ensure that Ukraine no longer becomes a geopolitical threat to Russia's security. V. Putin has repeatedly stated that Russia does not need a short-term ceasefire without sufficient guarantees, but a complete elimination of the root causes of the Ukrainian crisis.

Thirdly, Russia has always maintained strategic clarity in the regulation of Russian-American relations. During the second presidential term of D. Trump, that is, since the beginning of this year, the leaders of Russia and the United States have repeatedly held telephone conversations, and high-level negotiations between the two countries have also resumed. At the same time, the deception over NATO expansion to the East and the geopolitical pressure exerted by the West on Russia in the past few decades have already forced Russian political and strategic circles to soberly realize that the United States has never truly abandoned the policy of containing Russia.

According to the “Concept of Foreign Policy of the Russian Federation” of 2023, Russia considers the United States “the main inspirer, organizer and executor of the aggressive anti-Russian policy of the collective West, the source of the main risks to the security of the Russian Federation, international peace, balanced, fair and progressive development of mankind.” In order to facilitate the adaptation of the world order to the realities of a multipolar world, Russia intends to prioritize “eliminating the vestiges of dominance of the United States and other unfriendly states in world affairs, creating conditions for any state to abandon neocolonial and hegemonic ambitions.” –0–

KUALA LUMPUR, July 11 (Xinhua) — Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim met with Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi in the country's administrative capital Putrajaya on Friday. The two sides pledged to advance bilateral ties and cooperation.

The talks took place during Wang Yi's visit to Malaysia to attend the ASEAN Plus Foreign Ministers' Meeting. Noting that China is a reliable friend and partner of Malaysia, Anwar Ibrahim said that a friendly attitude towards China is the consensus of both the Malaysian government and people. Cooperation between the two countries in various fields benefits the people of both countries.

At a time when multilateral mechanisms such as BRICS are gaining strength and countries are striving for independence and development, China is playing a leading role and Malaysia highly values its contribution to these processes, the head of the Malaysian government noted.

For his part, Wang Yi, who is also a member of the Politburo of the CPC Central Committee, said that under the leadership of the two heads of state, bilateral relations have entered the best period in their history.

China is a sincere friend of Malaysia and stands ready to work with it to fully implement the important consensus reached by the two leaders and advance the building of a high-level strategic China-Malaysia community with a shared future, Wang said.

The Chinese Foreign Minister also expressed China's full support for Malaysia's ASEAN chairmanship in 2025 and its greater role in regional and international affairs. The diplomat added that China hopes to achieve new progress in China-ASEAN cooperation.

According to Wang Yi, China and Malaysia, as developing countries, emerging markets and key players in the Global South, should jointly confront challenges and achieve common development and prosperity.

The US's unilateral imposition of high tariffs is an irresponsible move that runs counter to global cooperation and common interests, Wang said, adding that China will always adhere to a high level of openness with developing countries and share the advantages of its huge market to expand win-win cooperation.

During the visit, Wang Yi also held talks with Malaysian Foreign Minister Mohamad Hassan. –0–
