On February 14, Wang Yi, member of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee and Foreign Minister, attended the Munich Security Conference and delivered a speech and answered questions at the "China Session." When asked about Chinas role in resolving regional conflicts, particularly the Ukraine issue, Wang Yi stated that Chinas position is clear: all regional hotspots should seek political solutions through dialogue and consultation, and the same applies to the Ukraine issue. However, China is not a party to the conflict, and the decision-making power is not in Chinas hands. What we can do is to promote peace talks. We have dispatched special envoys to mediate and, through various channels, emphasized to all parties that a ceasefire should be implemented as soon as possible, and that everyone should return to the negotiating table.On February 14, 2026, Wang Yi, member of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee and Foreign Minister, attended the Munich Security Conference, delivered a speech at the "China Session," and answered questions from the audience. Wang Yi emphasized that the erroneous remarks by Japanese leaders on the Taiwan issue exposed Japans undying ambition to invade and colonize Taiwan and the lingering specter of reviving militarism. Japan launched its invasion of China and attacked Pearl Harbor under the pretext of a so-called "crisis and existential crisis." The lessons of history are still fresh and must be heeded. If Japan does not repent, it will inevitably repeat the same mistakes. Good people should be vigilant. First and foremost, the Japanese people must be reminded not to be blinded and coerced by far-right forces and extremist ideologies again. All peace-loving countries should also warn Japan: if it chooses to go back to its old ways, it will only lead to its own destruction.Joint statement from the UK, Switzerland, France, Germany, and the Netherlands: We and our partners will use all policy tools at our disposal to continue to hold Russia accountable.Joint statement from the UK, Switzerland, France, Germany, and the Netherlands: We further express our concern that Russia has not destroyed all of its chemical weapons.The United Kingdom, Sweden, France, Germany, and the Netherlands issued a joint statement regarding the death of Alexei Navalny.

WTI advances toward $75.00 as China-related demand optimism offsets recession fears

In the early hours of Monday, WTI steadily climbs near the intraday high of $74.70 as bullish emotion competes with economic slowdown worries. Despite this, the weaker US Dollar and a light schedule allow buyers of black gold to maintain control following Friday's mixed performance.

 

In spite of this, the risk profile remains elevated in light of China's reopening of its borders after a three-year closure. On the same line, Guo Shuqing, party secretary of the People's Bank of China, made his remarks (PBOC).

 

Reuters, transmitting China unlock news, claimed that "about 2 billion journeys are anticipated this season, roughly doubling the volume of previous year, and recovering to 70% of 2019 levels," citing a statement from the Chinese government.

 

On the other side, PBOC's Shuqing stated, "The world's second-largest economy is likely to recover rapidly due to the country's optimal Covid-19 response and the continued implementation of its economic policies."

 

The US Dollar Index (DXY) fell the most in three weeks the day before, down 0.20% intraday to 103.70 as of press time, as the US employment report failed to excite greenback purchasers and the US activity numbers stoked fears of an economic slowdown. It's worth mentioning that the previous day's disappointing US wage growth, ISM Services PMI, and Factory Orders weighed on Treasury bond yields and the DXY.

 

On a different page, reports regarding a delay in the restoration of the colonial pipeline and the Russia-Ukraine conflict appear to also benefit energy buyers. Traders fear additional rate hikes ahead of the release of the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for December from China and the United States on Wednesday and Thursday, respectively, which tests the positive momentum.
