China, Russia hold first meeting of subcommittee on Arctic shipping routes cooperation​

At the invitation of Russia's State Atomic Energy Corporation Rosatom, China's Minister of Transport Liu Wei attended the first meeting of the subcommittee on Arctic shipping routes cooperation under the committee for regular meetings between Chinese and Russian heads of government, where he held talks with the subcommittee's Russian Chairman, Alexey Likhachev, and conducted working visit, on Sunday and Monday, according to China's Ministry of Transport's official WeChat account on Tuesday.

The first meeting of the subcommittee on Arctic shipping routes was held in Saint Petersburg on Monday. Liu pointed out that the subcommittee on Arctic shipping routes is a new working mechanism established under the committee for regular meetings between Chinese and Russian heads of government. It is an important platform for promoting the cooperation and development of Arctic shipping routes and an important channel for sharing experiences and seeking mutual development.

During this meeting, the two sides reached a series of important consensus on the mechanism, structure of the subcommittee and cooperation objectives, achieving fruitful results. China is willing to work with Russia to fully utilize the subcommittee's role, enhance the competitiveness of Arctic shipping, jointly ensure Arctic navigation safety, and promote new progress in polar shipbuilding, implementing the consensus of the two countries' leaders through concrete actions.

Alexey Likhachev, who is also director general of the Rosatom, noted that the establishment of the subcommittee on Arctic shipping routes is of historical significance, coinciding with the 75th anniversary of diplomatic relations between Russia and China. Rosatom is willing to deepen cooperation with the Chinese Ministry of Transport in various fields such as Arctic shipping, safety, and polar shipbuilding technology, and actively promote China-Russia Arctic shipping routes cooperation to new highs.

The meeting heard reports from three working groups under the subcommittee: shipping development, navigation safety, and polar ship technology and construction.

"Prime Minister Justin Trudeau pledged on Tuesday (November 26) a "serious and methodical" approach in response to U.S. President-elect Donald Trump's threat to impose tariffs on Canada and Mexico.

Trudeau attended a question period with the Parliament in which he was asked about concrete plans to respond to Trump's threat and safeguard Canadian jobs. "

....

China comment abt Mexico president statement:
"Mao Ning: China noted President Sheinbaum’s remarks. China carries out trade cooperation with other countries in accordance with international rules and market principles, and mutual benefit is a defining feature of such cooperation. We always believe that politicizing economic issues serves no one’s interest.

China and Mexico are good friends that trust each other and good partners seeking common development. Imports from China have played an important role in boosting the development of Mexico’s manufacturing industry and improving its competitiveness in foreign trade, and brought about tangible benefit to the Mexican people. Maintaining steady and sound economic and trade ties meets the common aspirations of both China and Mexico and serves the long-term interests of all sides. China stands ready to work with Mexico to uphold the sound momentum of our bilateral trade and economic cooperation to boost the development of both countries."

Canada is having vigorous debate on what position will give Trump maximum pleasure.

Yeah sure. I dont see China even acknowledging the issues let alone challenging them.
What issues? The issues laid here are science and hard power. China's all about that. I don't know what blind people don't see so you'll have to be more specific.
Arabs have alot of even hard power it is just you refuse to acknowledge it
I have acknowledged that all of Arabic hard power is in oil and the money that oil brings in. Nothing more.
and this SCO is at mercy of them.
There are no Arab nations in the SCO and nobody there cares about Arabs. You're on drugs again imagining Arabs everywhere when they're just in the crosshair of Israeli weapons.
its all one sided trade.
Not at all. Arabs trade oil for technology... and they don't even get to understand any of it; they just get to use it for as long as the seller agrees to sell.
It will become much easier for US to seek relation with Russia if Europe decline continues and these two powers together work more effectively for Arabs.
Except the US can't seek relationship with the Russians because the Russians will not forgive the American-started Ukraine War and nobody wants to work for Arabs. People work for themselves; Arabs are nobody.
In Ukraine conflict prisoner/children exchanges. there is Arabic soft power involve
LOL No, that's your imagination.
What makes you think Arabs are not ruling the World.
What makes you think homeless people don't rule the world? It's that stupid a question you ask.
just look at flight routes and top class civil aviation own by Arabs. they are now the center of the divided world. you should analyze why so many scientific societies are bankrupt.
I think Arabs don't rule the world because:

1. Despite all the oil wealth they have, they are small and have much less money collectively than large economies like China, EU and the US, even adding all Arab economies together.

2. They don't even rule their own countries. They're getting killed by Israelis and they can't do anything about it. Saudi Arabia says something to piss the US off and the US goes, "Hmmm, looks like there might be some human right violations in your country and somebody might end up getting Saddamed..." And MBS immediately falls back into place behind the US dollar.

3. They don't innovate technology. Money and oil are only some kind of power when there is peace and civility; when there is war, the only thing that matters is technology and weapons; Arabs have nothing. They can be robbed by basically any advanced country because they cannot manufacture or control the tech to defend themselves with. Everything they bought from the US/EU has shut off buttons; they are scrap metal at the touch of a button. Arabs control nothing; they don't even control the weapons they bought sitting on their own land. Therefore, if there was war, they would not even control their own oil. It's pathetic.
yes it does. some thing like Telegram is visible. Medvedev explained this Telegram founder want to become a world citizen aka liberal . when famous person have some thing done to him than easy to draw attention.
The Telegram case involved a Russia liberal being arrested in France and forced to give up the code for his app. I don't understand exactly what you said because your English is shit, but I know it has nothing to do with Arabs.
only Arabs capable of creating this situation where founder is separate from tech firm to run it effectively inside the Arabic system.
There is no such thing as Arabic system because Arabs are too stupid to make any technological system.
Su-34 wings allow it to have more than MIG-31K so many more Kinzal it can carry but this first hint came from Arabic language .
No, technology is never derived from ancient languages. You -> drugs
This is not a minor missile considering its range relative to its size, warhead and speed. Arabs provided the opportunity to Russia to have that extensive real training in Syria and Russia created its most complex overseas airbase for Arabs.
Wow, that is so sad. Arabs are so powerless that they only service they can provide to Russia is to give oppertunities for Russia to test its weapons on Arabic lands against Arabic people? Oh... that is dire...
Russia knows what kind of society Arabs trust long term.
Sure, get them, no problem. It's never bad to be connected to thier wealth.
you are mistaken to think every thing not revolve around Arabs.
No, I didn't say that everything doesn't revolve around Arabs. I said that NOTHING revolves around Arabs. Even things in Arabic places don't revolve around Arabs; they revolve around the global power dynamic amongst China/Russia and the West. Arabs have no technology and therefore no military power and no true hard power. They do not have the gravity to be revolved around; Arabs revolve around others.
just admit it you havent research this Arabic Soft Power.
I told you I haven't because I don't study technologically poor civilizations. They're not worth my time.

The entire concept of Arabic soft power is so stupid that nobody other than you has even heard of it; it's like asking someone to research Australian Aborigine Quantum Space Decoding when they're squatting on the ground rubbing sticks and stones together. My "research" on this has been listening to you babbling nonsense like a drunk homeless person, proving that the entire concept only exists in the drugged alcoholic mind.
I know your reading level is still at picture books, but we don't need that here; we understand words. We didn't need photo evidence that Russia has jets.
