CARNEY: Even if other countries sharply cut investment, we must continue investing in global public goods for climate and development finance.

May 28 — At a routine briefing, Chinese Defense Ministry spokesman Colonel Jiang Bin rebutted Philippine military claims of "illegal, aggressive, bullying and disinformation" in the South China Sea and Manila's assertion of a broader "security threat." Jiang said Philippine officials have repeatedly promoted false China-related narratives, lost credibility, and persistently provoked at sea, infringing China's territorial sovereignty and maritime rights. He accused Manila of colluding with external forces to disrupt the South China Sea, a serious breach of the Declaration on the Conduct of Parties in the South China Sea (DOC) that harms regional interests. Provocations will not gain traction, he added. China will continue to take effective measures to safeguard its legitimate rights and maintain regional peace and stability.

CARNEY said the United States' future should include a new partnership with Canada.
