China ‘Unstoppable’: Xi defiant, Trump warns conspiracy
In his speech, Xi underlined the significance of remembering painful history while working collectively to ensure peace, unity, and stability. He stressed that dialogue and cooperation among nations remain essential to prevent the outbreak of wars and avoid repeating past tragedies. Xi also reaffirmed China’s commitment to multilateralism, peaceful development, and mutual support as the foundation for achieving a secure and prosperous world for all.
The world witnessed a symbolic yet powerful moment in Beijing as three of the most closely watched leaders on the global stage—Chinese President Xi Jinping, Russian President Vladimir Putin, and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un—appeared together at a grand military parade commemorating 80 years since Japan’s defeat in World War II.
The huge parade, held in the heart of Beijing, dazzled with new weaponry, sophisticated missile systems, fighter jets, and thousands of soldiers marching in unison. But beyond the hardware, the event carried a clear political message. Speaking to the world, Xi Jinping called China “unstoppable,” portraying the nation’s rise as a force driven not by aggression but by historical momentum. “The rejuvenation of the Chinese nation is unstoppable,” he declared, while emphasizing that humanity must choose between “peace or war, dialogue or confrontation.”
Xi’s appeal for peace and equality among nations—where countries support one another and avoid repeating the tragedies of history—was delivered with calm assurance. Yet, observers could not ignore the symbolism of his stage companions. Putin and Kim, both controversial figures in the West, stood beside him, sending a signal of unity against Western dominance.
Unsurprisingly, the appearance drew sharp reactions from abroad. Former U.S. President Donald Trump, in a fiery Truth Social post, accused Xi, Putin, and Kim of “conspiring against the United States.” Injecting his characteristic blend of rivalry and nostalgia, Trump While extending “warm regards” to the very leaders he accused of colluding, Trump’s message underscored the tensions shaping today’s geopolitics: fractured trust, suspicion, and competition between Washington and Beijing.
For many watching, the parade was a reminder of how history continues to guide present-day politics. Where Xi sought to frame China’s rise as peaceful, the shared platform with Putin and Kim only deepened perceptions of an emerging axis challenging Western influence. To some, it was a moment of pride and resilience; to others, it was a warning sign of mounting global polarization.
With tensions simmering over trade, security, and ideology, Beijing’s grand spectacle may be remembered not just as a commemoration of history—but as a statement about the new world order taking shape in real time.
