MNI (London) - Wires carrying comments from Chinese President Xi Jinping speaking to a plenary meeting of the delegation of the People's Liberation Army and the Armed Police Force: "Must systematically improve China's capability to address strategic risk, uphold strategic interests, and achieve strategic goals....to consolidate and improve the integrated national strategic system and capacity."

- Excerpt from article (translated into English): "It is necessary to strengthen the orientation of defense science and technology industry to serve a strong army and win wars, optimize the system layout, innovate development models, and enhance the resilience of the industrial chain and supply chain."
- The focus on the resilience of supply chains is likely a response to Western efforts - led by the US - to limit China's access to high-tech components and semiconductors that would allow the development of advanced military capabilities.
