⌹The newspapers report on China's trade challenges amid US tariff pressure, with May exports to America plummeting 34.6% despite overall export growth slowing to 4.8% (Caixin Chinese, Global Times, South China Morning Post).

20:59 (12:59)⇢Harvard speech backlash engulfs Chinese student

⌹The newspapers report on a Harvard student controversy dominating Chinese social media discourse. Jiang Yurong, a Chinese student who gave a graduation speech at Harvard, faces intense criticism after BBC Chinese published an interview where she describes feeling "caught in the middle" and "overwhelmed" by public backlash (BBC Chinese). China Digital Times frames her as an unwitting target of US-China political tensions, noting public anger over elite privilege and information restrictions spanning two decades. Meanwhile, US-China economic talks opened in London with the first meeting of a new bilateral consultation mechanism (Global Times, South China Morning Post, People's Daily). State media coordination continues around cultural heritage themes, with multiple outlets publishing identical coverage of Xi's directive to "do well the Grand Canal article," emphasizing 5,000 years of civilization preservation (CCTV, China Daily Chinese, Huanqiu). Economic data shows continued challenges with Deutsche Welle reporting "dismal" May figures including weak consumption and export difficulties.
