12.08.2025 ⇢ The Truce of Tariffs, The Bonds of Southern Nations, and Cultural Inheritance
⌨The editorial landscape on August 12th in China was dominated by two interconnected narratives, with a new cultural emphasis emerging. The extension of the US-China tariff truce and the joint statement from Stockholm talks remained a consistent top story across various outlets from early morning. Concurrently, President Xi Jinping's phone call with Brazilian President Lula gained significant prominence throughout the day, framed by state media as a model for "Global South" unity and self-reliance. This marked a shift in international relations focus compared to recent days. By mid-afternoon, state media introduced a new editorial focus: General Secretary Xi's emphasis on cultural inheritance, specifically his engagement with ancient sites and intangible cultural heritage. This development wove the ongoing "Chinese-style modernization" narrative with cultural preservation, expanding on previous days' themes of harmonious development and the balance of material and spiritual civilization.
