China must resolutely counterattack India’s opportunist move: People’s Daily
September 1, 2020
China’s Western Theatre Command said Monday evening that Indian troops once again illegally crossed the Line of Actual Control near the south bank of the Pangong Lake and Reqin mountain pass on Monday, a blatant provocative move that seriously infringed on China’s territorial sovereignty, and undermined the peace and stability in the China-India border area. Earlier in the day, India, who first moved to accuse China of carrying out “provocative military movements,” said it preempted Chinese military activity.

September 1, 2020
Out of the pursuit for private gains, some U.S. politicians are arbitrarily distorting and reinvent the development of China-U.S. relations in the past 40 years, pretending the U.S. as a party that’s been deceived. They maligned China’s normal exchanges with the U.S. as an attempt to undermine U.S. interests in hope of replacing the latter's position, which is extremely ridiculous. Click here to read...
China must reform financial markets to ward off US financial sanctions, think tank urges: South China Morning Post
September 1, 2020
China should make its own financial markets big enough and open enough to foil any attempt by the United States to decouple financially, according to a semi-official Chinese research group. The tactics suggested in a report released on Sunday by the China Finance 40 Forum (CF40), a think tank comprising senior Chinese regulatory officials and financial experts, comes amid worries that the United States will expand the conflict between the world’s two largest economies beyond the trade war and efforts to restrain China’s technological development in the name of national security.
