Beijing/Washington: China has voiced its opposition to any potential US military action against Iran in response to the ongoing protests in the country.

A spokesperson for the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs said in a statement that China always opposes interference in the internal affairs of other countries and the use of force in international relations.

The statement emphasized that national sovereignty must be respected and the safety of all nations ensured under international law. It added that China hopes the Iranian government and people can overcome the current challenges and maintain national stability.

Meanwhile, German Chancellor also commented on the situation, urging an end to the violence in Iran. “The use of force is a sign of weakness, not strength,” the Chancellor said.

The remarks come as US President Donald Trump indicated that Washington is considering various options in response to the unrest in Iran, including military action. Speaking aboard Air Force One while traveling from Florida to Washington, DC, Trump said the US is in contact with Iranian opposition leaders.

He added that Iran reached out to discuss the nuclear deal recently, and the US is open to meeting with them. However, Trump reiterated that military action remains one of the options under consideration.

Beijing: Chinese President Xi Jinping stated that no one can prevent China and Taiwan from reunifying, emphasizing that people on both sides of the Taiwan Strait share a bond of blood and kinship.

In his New Year address, Xi said that reunification with Taiwan is unavoidable and cannot be stopped. His remarks came a day after the conclusion of two-day Chinese military exercises near Taiwan, which were conducted shortly after the US approved arms sales worth over $11 billion to Taiwan.

Xi stressed that the shared heritage of Chinese people across the strait makes reunification a matter of historical inevitability. “The motherland’s reunification is the call of time, and it cannot be prevented,” he said.

The Chinese president also reaffirmed China’s commitment to global peace and development, noting that China stands ready to cooperate with all countries to promote humanity’s common future.

Xi praised the decision to observe Taiwan Recovery Day on October 25, commemorating the end of Japanese occupation of Taiwan after World War II.

He further highlighted China’s achievements in artificial intelligence and the space industry, noting that the country is advancing rapidly in AI models and has made significant progress in chip research and development. Xi said these advancements position China among the world’s fastest-growing economies.

December 8, 2025 by Newsdesk

TOKYO: Tensions between China and Japan have escalated following Chinese air force exercises near Japan’s Okinawa islands.

Reuters reports that Japan claimed Chinese aircraft targeted Japanese fighter jets with radar during two dangerous incidents, a charge that China has denied.

Japanese Prime Minister Sani Takachi described the radar targeting as “a dangerous act that exceeded the necessary limits for safe flight” and confirmed that Japan has formally protested the incidents with China.

China, in turn, warned Japan to cease what it called “defamation and slander,” asserting that Japanese aircraft had interfered with Chinese naval vessels conducting training east of the Miyako Strait. Both sides have issued stern statements, highlighting rising tensions in the region.

Prime Minister Takachi warned that any further violations will come at a “high price,” emphasizing Japan’s commitment to safeguarding its airspace.

China unveils AI capsule for quick and easy gastrointestinal diagnostics

China has developed an innovative AI-powered capsule that can diagnose stomach and intestinal diseases in just 8 minutes, eliminating the need for traditional endoscopies and tests.

The capsule, priced at $280, has already been successfully tested on thousands of patients, delivering highly accurate results.

In a related technological breakthrough, 14-year-old Indian prodigy Sidharth Nandiyala from Dallas, Texas, has created an AI-powered smartphone app called Circadian AI. The app can detect cardiovascular issues in just seven seconds using sound-based analysis, potentially saving countless lives.

Reports indicate that Sidharth is the world’s youngest AI professional, holding certifications from Oracle and ARM. Circadian AI uses advanced algorithms to analyze heart sounds and provide instant diagnosis. The app has been tested on over 15,000 patients in the U.S. and 700 patients in India, demonstrating 96% accuracy.

Following a meeting with Sidharth, Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu praised his exceptional talent and dedication to leveraging technology for humanity, encouraging him to continue advancing healthcare innovations.

Sidharth, who completed his school education at Lalar Middle School in Texas and is currently pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science at the University of Texas, Dallas, stated that his goal is to bring diagnostic tools to communities with limited medical access, where rapid detection can save lives.

These advancements—from China’s AI diagnostic capsule to Sidharth’s Circadian AI app—signal a new era in non-invasive, rapid, and accurate medical diagnostics.

WASHINGTON: U.S. President Donald Trump has claimed that Pakistan, along with several other countries, is conducting nuclear tests without informing the international community.

In an interview, Trump said these nations are carrying out tests “deep beneath the ground,” creating only slight tremors that make detection difficult.

The US president stated that America possesses enough nuclear weapons “to destroy the world 150 times,” but emphasized that the United States does not seek to use them. “We don’t want to use nuclear weapons, but we want to test and ensure their effectiveness,” he added.

Meanwhile, China rejected Trump’s remarks, calling them “baseless.” Beijing reiterated that as a responsible nuclear power, its nuclear strategy remains purely defensive in nature.

On the other hand, US President Donald Trump has expressed his desire to make America the “champion” of cryptocurrency.

In an interview, Trump said that crypto has become the world’s largest industry, and the United States currently leads all countries, including China, in this field. “I want America to be the champion in cryptocurrency,” he declared.
