XinhuaIn a landmark moment for its naval ambitions, China has successfully commissioned the Fujian, its third and most advanced aircraft carrier, equipped with cutting-edge electromagnetic catapults (EMALS) for superior aircraft launch capabilities. President Xi Jinping, also general secretary of the Communist Party of China Central Committee and chairman of the Central Military Commission, attended the commissioning and flag-raising ceremony on Wednesday at a naval port in Sanya, south China’s Hainan Province.Xi boarded the 80,000-tonne vessel to inspect its state-of-the-art systems, including the flat-deck design and J-35 stealth fighters compatibility. Launched in June 2022 and named after Fujian Province, the Fujian marks China’s first fully domestically designed and built carrier, shifting from ski-jump ramps used in predecessors Liaoning and Shandong.This addition bolsters the People’s Liberation Army Navy (PLAN), already the world’s largest by hull count, enhancing power projection in the Pacific amid rising U.S.-China tensions. Analysts hail it as a technological leap, rivaling U.S. supercarriers, with sea trials since May 2024 validating its stealth and endurance features.The event underscores Beijing’s maritime strategy, with Xi emphasizing integrated military-civilian development. Future deployments could reshape regional dynamics.

New York In a landmark political moment, 34-year-old Zohran Mamdani has been elected mayor of New York City, becoming the city’s first Muslim mayor and marking a meteoric rise from state legislator to one of the most visible figures in the U.S. Democratic landscape. A Progressive Platform and Generational Shift Mamdani, identified with the Democratic socialist wing of the party, ran on a bold progressive agenda: rent freezes for nearly one million apartments, making public buses free, and restructuring city spending to focus on income equality and housing justice. His win over former Governor Andrew Cuomo, who ran as an independent after losing the Democratic primary, underscores a generational and ideological shift within the party, as younger voters embrace more radical change. High Turnout & National Implications Voter turnout surged in New York City: over 2 million ballots were cast, the highest for a mayoral race since 1969. Beyond local politics, the result signals larger implications for the national Democratic Party, especially as it grapples with strategy ahead of the 2026 midterms. A Message to Washington & Trump In his victory speech, Mamdani addressed Donald Trump directly with a rallying cry: “turn the volume up!” He framed his election as part of a broader fight against the political order Trump represents, not merely in New York but nationally. Trump had previously warned that federal funding to New York could be at risk under Mamdani’s administration, citing his socialist views. What’s Next for NYC Mamdani now faces the task of turning his ambitious promises into policy amid a diverse and complex city. Key questions include how his housing plans will be financed, how relationships with state and federal governments will fare, and how his progressive agenda will balance urgency with practicality. For New Yorkers and national observers alike, the next months will test whether this historic win can translate into effective governance.

Washington, DCIn a landmark boost to bilateral ties, the United States and India signed a comprehensive 10-year defence framework agreement on Friday, US Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth announced during a joint press briefing with Indian Defence Minister Rajnath Singh.The pact, dubbed the ‘Strategic Partnership for Security and Innovation’ (SPSI), aims to deepen military interoperability, joint exercises, and technology transfers in areas like AI-driven surveillance, hypersonic weapons, and cyber defence. Valued at an estimated $20 billion over the decade, it includes co-production of next-gen fighter jets and unmanned systems to counter regional threats, particularly from China.‘This agreement fortifies our shared vision for a free and open Indo-Pacific,’ Hegseth stated, emphasizing Quad enhancements. Singh hailed it as a ‘new era of trust,’ addressing India’s push for indigenous manufacturing under ‘Make in India.’The deal comes amid escalating border skirmishes and Beijing’s assertiveness, with implementation starting Q1 2026. Analysts predict it could reshape South Asian security dynamics.
