Free AccessMNI China Press Digest, June 18: RRR Cuts, China-U.S., Virus
BEIJING (MNI) - The following lists highlights from Chinese press reports
on Thursday:
China will push the financial industry to sacrifice CNY1.5 trillion in
profits this year to support businesses through a variety of policy measures,
according to a statement on the State Council website. The statement, which
followed an executive meeting late Wednesday, said the measures would include
guiding bond interest rates lower, issuing cheaper loans, deterring loan
repayments for SMEs, and granting more unsecured loans to small companies and
cutting fees. The PBOC should also use reserve requirement ratio cuts and
relending tools to maintain ample liquidity and ease corporate funding
pressures, the statement read.
China's top diplomat, State Councillor Yang Jiechi, met U.S. Secretary of
State Mike Pompeo in Hawaii on Tuesday and Wednesday, according to the People's
Daily. The two parties fully expressed their positions, the state media said,
describing the dialogue as "constructive". The officials agreed to take action
to implement the consensus reached by their respective Presidents and maintain
communication and contacts, the newspaper said.
The resurgence of the coronavirus epidemic in Beijing was discovered early
and is still on the rise, CCTV News reported citing Pang Xinghuo, deputy
director of the Beijing Centre for Disease Control and Prevention. The number of
new Covid-19 cases may continue to grow for a certain period, given that the
Xinfadi market - where the cluster of infections was centred - is the largest
wholesale food market in Beijing with high traffic volume and an extensive
logistic networks. The initial conclusion is that the infection was caused by
interpersonal transmission or the environmental pollution of goods, Pang said.
The current cases are mainly common and mild cases, accounting for 95% of the
total, Pang added.
China has demanded that India carry out a thorough investigation into the
recent border incident and severely punish those who should be held accountable,
said Chinese State Councillor and Foreign Minister Wang Yi in a telephone call
late Wednesday with Indian External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar. According to
a statement on the ministry website, Wang asked his counterpart to strictly
discipline Indian frontline troops and immediately stop all provocative actions.
Wang said that on Monday night Indian frontline border troops blatantly broke
the consensus reached at commander-level talks between the two sides. Although
the situation in the Galwan Valley had eased, Indian troops once again crossed
the Line of Actual Control in a deliberate provocation and violently attacked
Chinese officers and soldiers who were there to negotiate. This triggered fierce
physical conflicts and casualties, the statement read. India must not misjudge
the current situation or underestimate China's firm will to safeguard its
territorial sovereignty, Wang added.
