XI'AN, March 1 (Xinhua) — The Chinese city of Xi'an, capital of Northwest China's Shaanxi Province, known as the historic starting point of the Great Silk Road, has decided to focus in 2026 on building a high-quality economic ring by strengthening the development of international China-Europe/Central Asia rail freight transport. This was announced at the 7th session of the 17th People's Congress of the city, which opened on Friday.

To achieve this goal, a new package of initiatives will be developed and implemented to promote the high-quality development of China-Europe international rail freight transport routes from Xi'an, including enhancing the interconnectivity of customs, railway, and port data systems, expanding the sharing of this data, and further unlocking Xi'an's development opportunities through its status as a participating city in China's New Western Land-Sea Corridor.

As reported at the annual session, Xi'an achieved a number of impressive achievements last year, allowing the city to confidently move toward the construction of the aforementioned economic ring: the efficiency of the Trans-Caspian International Transport Route (TCITR) was increased through coordinated efforts with the governments, railways, and port authorities of countries located along the TCITR; a logistics center for Kazakhstan was built and commissioned at the Xi'an dry port as part of a joint China-Kazakhstan project; and the first special "China-Central Asia" tourist train was launched from the city.

Xi'an's achievements in this area are also reflected in statistical data. In 2025, Xi'an recorded 6,037 China-Europe and China-Central Asia freight train departures, a 21.1 percent increase year-on-year. Last year, the city's total import and export volume reached 498.79 billion yuan (approximately $72 billion), a 21.1 percent increase year-on-year, with exports of the "new three" commodities in China's foreign trade structure (electric vehicles, lithium batteries, and solar panels) and integrated circuits increasing by 31.4 and 30.1 percent, respectively. Against this backdrop, Xi'an's export growth rates to the five Central Asian countries and ASEAN countries amounted to 19.8 and 21.8 percent, respectively.

The session also announced a plan for Xi'an to deepen institutional and mechanical reforms this year in relation to pilot free trade zones, comprehensive bonded areas, and comprehensive cross-border e-commerce pilot zones. The creation of a national demonstration zone for innovative development of trade in services is also planned.

BEIJING, March 1 (Xinhua) — China took a major step toward regulating its rapidly growing humanoid robotics industry on Saturday, unveiling the first national standards system covering the entire industrial chain and life cycle of humanoid robots and embodied artificial intelligence (AI).

The standards system, presented at the annual meeting on Humanoid Robots and Embodied Intelligence Standards (HEIS) in Beijing, consists of six key components: basic universality, brain-like and intelligent computing, limbs and components, complete machines and systems, application, and safety and ethics.

It was jointly developed by more than 120 research institutions, enterprises and industrial users under the leadership of the HEIS Technical Committee of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) of China.

A committee representative explained that the brain-like intelligent computing standards cover critical specifications for the “brain and cerebellum” of embodied intelligence and intelligent computing, governing the entire data lifecycle as well as the model training and deployment processes.

Application standards govern the development, operation, and maintenance of humanoid robots in various scenarios, while safety and ethical standards cover the entire industrial life cycle, ensuring compliance with technological evolution, the committee added.

The standardization system comes after China's humanoid robot industry showed significant growth in 2025, supported by mid- and long-term plans from central and local governments that regard it as a strategic sector.

According to the Ministry of Industrial Policy of the People's Republic of China, last year was considered the first year of mass production of humanoid robots in China: more than 140 domestic manufacturers released more than 330 different models.

The new standardization system is expected to become an important benchmark for this rapidly evolving industry, promoting high-quality development through standardized technical requirements and safety protocols. -0-

BEIJING, March 1 (Xinhua) — Two giant pandas died in Hangzhou, capital of east China's Zhejiang Province, on Feb. 9 and Feb. 10, according to an official statement released Saturday.

A joint statement from the Hangzhou Municipal Forestry and Water Resources Bureau, the China Giant Panda Conservation and Research Center, and the Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda Breeding, capital of southwest China's Sichuan Province, said Banban, a panda from Hangzhou Safari Park, and Xiangguo, a panda from Hangzhou Zoo, died of illness on February 9 and 10, respectively, despite receiving medical treatment.

BEIJING, Feb. 28 (Xinhua) — China's Defense Ministry on Saturday accused Japan of reckless moves toward neo-militarism and called on the international community to remain highly vigilant.

These statements were made by Chinese Defense Ministry spokesman Zhang Xiaogang in response to the Japanese government's plans to revise three national security documents this year and accelerate discussions on amendments to the principles governing arms exports.

According to Zhang Xiaogang, China conducted appropriate military operations to protect its territorial sovereignty and security interests. These actions are fully consistent with both domestic and international law and are absolutely fair and justifiable, he noted.

Touching on Japan's history of aggression, Zhang Xiaogang stated that the past has not been forgotten. He accused Japan of previously using so-called "existential crises" as a pretext for waging foreign wars of aggression. As a result, Japan has committed monstrous crimes against its Asian neighbors and the entire world.

Japan's right-wing forces, he added, are reviving similar rhetoric about so-called external threats in an attempt to justify military expansion and pursue hidden political goals.

Zhang Xiaogang called on the international community to remain highly vigilant, resolutely oppose Japan's reckless moves toward neo-militarism, and uphold the results of the victory in World War II and the post-war international order.

Japan should not take the wrong path or turn back the wheel of history. Otherwise, it will lead to a quicker and more serious defeat, warned a Chinese Defense Ministry official. -0-

BEIJING, Feb. 28 (Xinhua) — Chinese Defense Ministry spokesman Zhang Xiaogang warned Saturday that China's armed forces are on high alert to counter any attempt to stir up trouble in the South China Sea.

Zhao Xiaogang made the statement while commenting at the media's request on the so-called "joint patrol" recently conducted by the Philippines, the United States, Japan and Australia in the airspace and sea area near China's Huangyan Island.

Zhang Xiaogang criticized the United States and other extra-regional states for saber-rattling in the South China Sea, saying these countries are the source of tension in the region.

The agency's representative added that the Philippines constantly provokes and infringes on China's rights, harming the common interests of countries in the region. According to him, it is nothing more than a troublemaker and a disturber of the peace.

"China has indisputable sovereignty and jurisdiction over the islands in the South China Sea and adjacent waters. China's necessary measures to protect its sovereignty and interests are lawful, professional, restrained, and indisputable," Zhang Xiaogang noted.

He said the Chinese military will always be on high alert to ensure that any attempts to disturb the peace in the South China Sea are doomed to failure and to maintain peace and stability in the region. -0-
