BEIJING, March 3 (Xinhua) — China released the Opinions on Accelerating High-Quality Development of Science and Technology Insurance on Monday, as part of the country's broader efforts to strengthen its own high-level science and technology capabilities.

The document was published by the Ministry of Science and Technology of China jointly with the General Administration of Financial Supervision and Regulation (GAFSCR), the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology of China, and the State Intellectual Property Administration of China. It outlines 20 measures in six areas aimed at accelerating the development of a science and technology insurance system that meets the needs of scientific and technological innovation.

In China, science and technology insurance plays a stabilizing role in promoting scientific and technological innovation, which is characterized by high capital investment, long development cycles, and elevated risks. In 2025, it provided coverage for risks worth approximately 8 trillion yuan (approximately $1.16 trillion), and insurance premiums increased by 44 percent compared to the previous year.

The document calls for improved risk-sharing mechanisms to address complex technological challenges, as well as increased insurance support for state strategic technological forces.

For small and medium-sized science and technology enterprises, insurers are encouraged to offer simpler and more accessible products with easier access and convenient claims settlement procedures. -0-

NEW YORK, March 3 (Xinhua) — A federal appeals court on Monday rejected a request by U.S. President Donald Trump's administration to delay the process of rolling back tariffs, most of which the Supreme Court invalidated in February.

The court's decision notes that there are no grounds for a deferment, especially for such a long period as three months.

As local media reported on Monday, the ruling gives the US Court of International Trade the opportunity to begin developing measures to ease the situation for companies that successfully challenged global tariffs.

On February 20, the US Supreme Court ruled that the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) does not grant the president the authority to impose tariffs. The court did not consider the issue of refunds.

On Friday, the Trump administration asked a federal district court to delay a decision on tariff refunds for 90 days so the relevant agencies can consider their options.

As a reminder, on April 2, 2025, D. Trump announced the introduction of a basic tariff of 10% on virtually all imported goods, as well as higher rates for some trading partners, stating that the duties would generate revenue for the government and revive manufacturing in the United States.

On April 23, a coalition of 12 states filed a complaint against the "illegal tariffs" with the U.S. Court of International Trade in New York.

On August 29, a federal appeals court upheld a lower court's ruling, ruling that Trump improperly relied on the IEEPA to impose tariffs.

In September, the US administration appealed the matter to the Supreme Court. –0–

"Can a microchip be flexible?" A decades-old quest by Peng Huisheng's research team at the Institute of Fiber Electronics and Devices at Fudan University has now become a reality. Recently, the Peng Huisheng/Chen Peining team at Fudan University created the world's first "fiber chip," which is expected to provide new technological support for the transformation and development of emerging industries such as electronic textiles, brain-computer interfaces, and virtual reality.

During his research, Fudan University professor Chen Peining came to a profound conclusion: “Every time a new research area is opened, it is necessary to attract specialists from various disciplines and fields. Scientific breakthroughs stimulate both the development of disciplines and the training of personnel.”

"General Secretary Xi Jinping emphasized that education must play a leading and supporting role in achieving a positive synergy between independent technological innovation and human resource development. This has determined the direction of our research and teaching activities," said Chen Peining.

"We are restructuring our disciplines, teaching systems, and governance based on a 'platform' approach, fostering deep integration and a virtuous cycle of development among education, science, technology, and human resources," said Fudan University President Jin Li. "By creating new structures such as interdisciplinary research centers and university-enterprise joint labs, we are implementing flexible project-based and team-based work models, aiming to break down barriers and allow structures, personnel, and resources to naturally flow and interact effectively within the system."

Over the past year, China has made significant new achievements in the comprehensive promotion of education, science and technology, and human resources – from the promotion of the establishment of National Engineering Academies and social science training bases to the innovative placement of pilot national colleges in advanced fields and the implementation of the Breakthrough Program in Basic and Interdisciplinary Sciences.

WASHINGTON, March 2 (Xinhua) — US President Donald Trump on Monday defended the strikes on Iran, calling them necessary and important, and lashed out at Democrats.

"The Radical Left Democrats, a party that has completely lost its way, are bitterly complaining about the desperately needed and important attack by the United States and Israel on Iran," Trump wrote on the social network Truth Social.

"Most people understand that they're only complaining because I did it, and if I hadn't done it, they'd be screaming, 'Why didn't Trump attack Iran? He should have done it immediately!'" the White House chief said.

Democratic lawmakers sharply condemned the administration's actions, emphasizing that there was no immediate threat and that the strikes had not been authorized by Congress. They also warned that Trump was potentially dragging the United States into another protracted conflict in the Middle East.

The Trump administration's priorities are misplaced, House Democratic leader Hakeem Jeffries wrote on Monday on the social media site X. "Donald Trump and the extremist Republicans are willing to spend billions bombing Iran. They have done nothing to lower food prices or the high cost of living," he said.

The US Congress is expected to vote on the war powers measure this week. Specifically, the Senate will consider the matter as early as Tuesday. –0–

UNITED NATIONS, March 2 (Xinhua) — The UN Security Council "must act decisively, clearly and unequivocally" against the military strikes launched by the United States and Israel against Iran, the Islamic Republic's permanent representative to the UN, Amir Saeed Iravani, said on Monday.

In a press statement, A.S. Iravani said that the US, in full coordination with Israel, launched a “second deliberate and unprovoked” military attack on Iran, which is a “deliberate act of aggression.”

Noting that the US and Israel had targeted Iran's Supreme Leader and many senior military officials, A.S. Iravani said that attacking the highest official of a sovereign UN member state was "a flagrant violation of international law and a direct assault on sovereign equality."

"This behavior has put the entire international system at risk," he said.

The diplomat also accused the US and Israel of "deliberately targeting civilians and civilian infrastructure" leading to the death of 165 schoolgirls in Iran's southern Hormozgan province, saying "these actions constitute an act of aggression," a "war crime," and a "crime against humanity."

"The UN cannot remain silent. Responsibility is not a matter of choice," said A.S. Iravani, adding that "the Security Council must act decisively, clearly, and unequivocally."

He stressed that there is no immediate threat from Iran, its nuclear program is exclusively peaceful in nature, and the country is conducting serious diplomatic negotiations.

However, "for the second time, the United States chose force over diplomacy and violated the UN Charter. There are no legal grounds to justify this attack," he said.

According to him, Iran is exercising its inherent right to self-defense in accordance with Article 51 of the UN Charter and its response is lawful, necessary and proportionate, aimed only at the military objectives of hostile forces.

"Iran does not seek war. Iran does not seek escalation, but it will not compromise its sovereignty," he emphasized.
