LONDON, May 26, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Connected fitness bikes often require ongoing monthly subscriptions long after the hardware purchase, but the new Merach S29R2 takes a different approach. It combines self-powered operation, smart auto-resistance, and optional app connectivity, including support for popular third-party platforms like Zwift and Kinomap, without locking core functionality behind a mandatory subscription. Designed for flexible home use, it keeps workouts accessible and subscription-free. 

Cordless Freedom for Any Room  

What sets the S29R2 apart from other smart bikes is its independence from power outlets. Using an integrated generator system, the bike converts pedaling energy into the power needed to operate its electronics and onboard display — eliminating the need for wall outlets, charging cables, or battery replacements. 

With the first pedal stroke, the LCD display activates automatically, showing performance data including time, speed, distance, calories burned, and resistance level. Combined with front transport wheels and a cordless setup, the bike can be easily moved from room to room, whether for a quick workout in the living room or a longer ride by the balcony window. 

Smart Resistance That Responds in Real Time 

Instead of relying on a traditional manual tension knob, the S29R2 uses an electronic resistance system controlled through onboard display buttons or app-based workout programs. The remaining mechanical knob functions exclusively as a braking and emergency-stop control. 

When connected to compatible virtual cycling platforms, the bike automatically adjusts resistance to match terrain changes in real time, responding in under three seconds to simulate climbs, descents, and changing riding conditions. The system also includes seven preset automatic training programs. 

Designed for Everyday Home Fitness 

The Merach S29R2 launched on April 26, 2026, and is available through merachfit.de at a recommended retail price (RRP) of €659.99. Pricing may vary on Amazon.

La mappatura del rischio legato ai terremoti in Toscana si fa sempre più accurata. L’amministrazione regionale prosegue nel suo programma di analisi territoriale mirato a simulare potenziali eventi tellurici, valutandone in anticipo l’impatto a livello locale. Questi dati si rivelano strumenti cruciali per una corretta gestione delle emergenze, per la pianificazione urbanistica, per la progettazione di nuove strutture e per la delicata fase di ricostruzione post-sisma.

In quest’ottica, la Regione ha compiuto un nuovo passo formale. Lo scorso 14 maggio, tramite il decreto numero 10830, è stato approvato un bando rivolto specificamente agli Enti locali. Sul piatto c’è un milione di euro, proveniente dal Fondo europeo di sviluppo regionale. Le risorse finanzieranno indagini specialistiche denominate di Microzonazione sismica di livello 4. Si tratta di studi di altissima precisione, riservati esclusivamente ai Comuni toscani che hanno già completato la mappatura di ‘Livello 3’, con lo scopo di affinare ulteriormente i dati a disposizione.

A delineare la strategia dietro questo stanziamento è l’assessore regionale all’ambiente, David Barontini: “La Regione Toscana sta portando avanti un lavoro concreto di rafforzamento della prevenzione sismica, attraverso gli studi di microzonazione sismica, per aumentare la sicurezza dei territori e delle comunità. L’obiettivo è quello di realizzare cartografie di pericolosità sismica locale sempre più precise, migliorando la conoscenza del sottosuolo e la capacità di valutare gli effetti di un possibile evento sismico”.

L’assessore evidenzia anche un primato tecnico dell’ente in questo settore: “Questo significa rafforzare la prevenzione, rendere più sicura la programmazione degli interventi e aumentare la protezione del patrimonio edilizio, con particolare attenzione agli edifici pubblici strategici e ai contesti più esposti. Peraltro la Toscana è fra le due Regioni italiane a effettuare internamente il controllo sulla microzonazione, senza ricorrere a soggetti esterni”. Concludendo poi sul senso complessivo dell’operazione: “È un lavoro che unisce conoscenza scientifica e pianificazione del territorio, e che rappresenta uno strumento fondamentale per costruire comunità più sicure e preparate di fronte al rischio sismico”.

Il milione di euro appena sbloccato rappresenta solo l’ultimo tassello di un investimento a lungo termine: negli ultimi quindici anni, infatti, l’ente ha destinato oltre sei milioni di euro alle attività di prevenzione e conoscenza della sismicità regionale.

Il bilancio post-elettorale del Partito Democratico toscano si traduce in una forte iniezione di fiducia, non limitata ai soli confini regionali ma nettamente proiettata verso uno scenario politico nazionale. Le recenti consultazioni amministrative hanno infatti premiato la strategia delle intese territoriali ben radicate, segnando il passo per la costruzione di una solida e credibile alternativa alle destre.

A fare la sintesi dei risultati è la vicesegretaria dem in Toscana, Stefania Lio, che rintraccia le ragioni del successo nell’ascolto delle necessità quotidiane delle persone e in un lavoro metodico portato avanti a ogni livello. Un’azione strutturale che ha visto in prima linea anche il segretario regionale Emiliano Fossi, capace di tessere una rete di alleanze basata su programmi e credibilità piuttosto che su fragili convenienze del momento.

La mappa del voto parla chiaro e premia lo sforzo organizzativo del partito: il centrosinistra trionfa al primo turno riprendendosi il capoluogo di Pistoia, strappato all’amministrazione di destra grazie a Giovanni Capecchi, e si impone in maniera netta a Prato con Matteo Biffoni. L’affermazione democratica si estende a macchia d’olio in tutta la regione, certificando l’ottimo stato di salute della coalizione con le vittorie di Damiano Sforzi a Sesto Fiorentino, David Ermini a Figline e Incisa Valdarno, Michelangelo Betti a Cascina, Valentina Ricotta a Calci e Carlo Carli a Fauglia.

Non mancano, tuttavia, le riflessioni critiche. I vertici dem rilevano infatti un allarmante calo dell’affluenza alle urne: un segnale inequivocabile di distacco tra elettorato e vita democratica, che impone a tutte le istituzioni un rapido cambio di passo per favorire un reale coinvolgimento della cittadinanza. Il metodo per recuperare questo divario, sottolinea la dirigenza toscana, si basa su coesione, risposte concrete e serietà amministrativa.

Proprio in virtù di questo consolidato metodo operativo, la coalizione guarda ora con determinazione alle sfide ancora aperte. L’attenzione si concentra sui decisivi ballottaggi di Arezzo e Viareggio, dove il partito si gioca la partita finale supportando rispettivamente Vincenzo Ceccarelli e Federica Maineri.

A inquadrare il peso specifico di questa tornata elettorale in un’ottica più ampia è Antonio Mazzeo, vicepresidente del Consiglio Regionale della Toscana, che legge nell’esito delle urne una vera e propria ‘lezione politica’ per il futuro del Paese.

“Il risultato delle amministrative in Toscana manda un messaggio che va oltre i confini dei singoli comuni: quando il Partito democratico e il centrosinistra sono uniti, credibili, radicati nei territori e capaci di parlare alla vita concreta delle persone, possono vincere e possono trainare la costruzione di un’alternativa forte alla destra anche a livello nazionale”, dichiara Mazzeo.

I successi registrati al primo turno dimostrano, secondo il vicepresidente, l’efficacia di un fronte progressista compatto. “Non sono soltanto risultati locali. Sono la prova che il centrosinistra, quando tiene insieme unità, buon governo, competenza e presenza nei territori, è competitivo ovunque. Anche dove la destra pensava di poter avanzare, le cittadine e i cittadini hanno scelto amministratori seri, capaci, vicini alle comunità”.

L’esito toscano diventa quindi il potenziale motore per una riscossa più vasta, a patto di replicare su scala nazionale la medesima ricetta a base di alleanze ampie, candidati autorevoli e pragmatismo. “Il voto dimostra che non basta opporsi alla destra: bisogna costruire un’alternativa credibile. E questa alternativa nasce nei territori, dai sindaci, dagli amministratori locali, dai circoli, dai militanti, dalle energie democratiche e progressiste che ogni giorno tengono vive le comunità. È lì che si ricostruisce fiducia. È lì che si dimostra che la buona politica non grida, ma ascolta, decide e governa”, evidenzia Mazzeo.

Per vincere, prosegue l’esponente dem, serve un centrosinistra largo ma identitario, capace di rimettere al centro dell’agenda la sanità pubblica, il lavoro, la scuola, i diritti e l’ambiente. Con questa visione, il richiamo è alla massima concentrazione in vista del secondo turno: “Adesso testa, cuore ed energie sui ballottaggi di Arezzo e Viareggio con Vincenzo Ceccarelli e Federica Maineri. Sono due sfide decisive non solo per quelle città, ma per rafforzare il messaggio che arriva dalla Toscana: la destra si può battere, il centrosinistra può vincere, e può farlo governando bene”.

La chiusura è un monito a capitalizzare il consenso ottenuto, trasformandolo in un progetto di respiro nazionale: “Complimenti ai sindaci eletti e a tutte le squadre che li hanno sostenuti. Ora il nostro compito è non disperdere questa energia. Dalla Toscana può partire una spinta decisiva per costruire l’alternativa nazionale e tornare a vincere le politiche. Ma per riuscirci dobbiamo continuare a fare ciò che i cittadini ci chiedono: stare uniti, stare nei territori, ascoltare, governare bene e parlare al Paese con serietà, coraggio e speranza”.

Standing out among nearly 10,000 entries from 68 countries, the AirX’s victory signifies more than just aesthetic excellence; it represents a triumph in structural thinking and execution quality, as verified by an international jury of 129 independent design experts. 

Furthermore, AirX has been honored with the Red Dot Award: Product Design 2026, one of the world’s most renowned design competitions. The Red Dot distinction represents exceptional design quality, evaluated by an independent international jury through a rigorous, submission-by-submission assessment process. This recognition not only reinforces RHINOSHIELD’s commitment to precision engineering and craftsmanship, but also underscores the brand’s dedication to advancing design excellence at a global standard. Today, the “Red Dot” label stands as one of the most sought-after international marks of quality in product design—further affirming AirX as a benchmark in both performance and design integrity. 

CIRCULAR. WITHOUT COMPROMISE. 

Guided by the core principle of “Mono-material Design,” AirX shatters the traditional trade-off between performance and sustainability. It proves that circular design is not a compromise but a higher form of innovation. Its exclusive Internal Damage Protection System acts like an airbag for your phone; featuring a multi-layered structure, it isolates up to 81% of impact forces, significantly reducing the risk of internal hardware damage. 

With 360° full-coverage air cushions and integrated buttons, the AirX provides comprehensive buffering against side impacts. Its overall durability has been enhanced by up to 30 times, allowing it to withstand repeated impacts without degrading protection.

AirX proves that protection, design, and sustainability can reach their pinnacle simultaneously. 

Mono-material Design: RHINOSHIELD’s Answer to the Circular Economy 

As global circularity policies and sustainability regulations continue to evolve, plastic is no longer viewed merely as a material issue, but as a challenge for systemic governance. Across the globe, regulatory bodies are increasingly implementing “Extended Producer Responsibility” (EPR), urging manufacturers to prioritize life-cycle management. This shift encourages the adoption of mono-material designs, easy disassembly, and the use of recycled content to drastically reduce reliance on virgin resources. 

Most consumer plastic products remain difficult to recycle due to complex composite materials that are nearly impossible to separate. Recognizing this barrier, RHINOSHIELD proactively adopted a Mono-material Design strategy in 2017, eliminating recycling obstacles at the source to ensure its entire phone case lineup is 100% recyclable. Following the 2022 launch of its comprehensive recycling ecosystem and the 2024 debut of the SolidX Circular (crafted from recycled phone case waste), the 2025/26 AirX continues to set new industry standards—proving that high-performance protection and circular innovation can go hand in hand on a global scale. 

“Circularity should not just be an idea; it must be a verifiable and scalable system,” said Eric Wang, Co-founder and CEO of RHINOSHIELD. “We don’t want to just ‘passively comply’ with regulations; we choose to ‘actively design.’ Through material engineering, we create a closed loop between usage, recycling, and regeneration. Our brand demonstrates that circular design can be a competitive advantage, proving that business models can thrive alongside sustainability.” 

Setting a Higher Standard: No BPA/S/F detection and PFAS-NIA Across All Phone Cases 

RHINOSHIELD emphasizes that true protection extends beyond drop testing to safeguarding human health and the environment. As daily-use items in constant contact with skin, phone case safety is paramount. 

Our entire range of phone cases are formulated without PFAS and independently tested by SGS, with no detectable traces of BPA, BPS and BPF 

From Product Innovation to Systemic Change 

Beyond product design, RHINOSHIELD continues to scale its RHINO LOOP Circular Ecosystem, leveraging reverse logistics and international mail-back recycling programs across the US, France, Germany and UK, to lower barriers to participation—making circularity a more accessible part of everyday life.

Company highlights international growth strategy, expanding structural heart portfolio, and commercialization priorities 

PARIS, May 26, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Venus Medtech convened its inaugural Global Partner Summit in Paris under the theme “Insights, Innovation, Impact,” bringing together distributors and commercial partners to discuss the company’s international growth strategy, structural heart portfolio expansion, and long-term commercialization priorities. 

The event marked a milestone in Venus Medtech’s efforts to strengthen alignment with its global partner network as the company continues to expand its presence across international markets. 

Opening the summit, David Bréant, Vice President of Sales and Marketing at Venus Medtech, reflected on the company’s evolution from an emerging innovator to a growing player in the global structural heart market, emphasizing the importance of clinical collaboration, product quality, and long-term execution. 

Hou-Sen Lim, General Manager and CEO of Venus Medtech, outlined the company’s strategic roadmap, highlighting progress across its transcatheter valve portfolio as well as upcoming regulatory and commercial milestones. He said the company is continuing to evolve from a product-focused organization into a multi-platform structural heart company spanning multiple valve therapies. 

A featured session led by Prof. Francesco Maisano, Chief of Cardiac Surgery and Director of the Valve Clinic at IRCCS San Raffaele University Hospital, focused on the development of Cardiovalve and the growing demand for transcatheter treatment options for mitral regurgitation (MR) and tricuspid regurgitation (TR). 

The presentation highlighted several design features of the Cardiovalve system, including single-step transfemoral access, a unified platform for both mitral and tricuspid procedures, a low-profile design intended to reduce left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) obstruction risk, and an adaptive sealing mechanism designed to minimize paravalvular leak (PVL). According to the presentation, current device sizing is expected to address approximately 85% of the target patient population. 

The session also underscored increasing clinical and commercial interest in therapies targeting the tricuspid valve, often referred to within the industry as the “forgotten valve” due to historically limited treatment options. 

“International expansion remains a core strategic priority for Venus Medtech,” said Hou-Sen Lim. “Following the international commercialization of Venus P-Valve, we are advancing the clinical, regulatory, and commercialization pathways for Venus-PowerX, Venus-Vitae, and Cardiovalve. We remain focused on building long-term clinical credibility and strengthening our presence in the global structural heart market through a broader and increasingly diversified product portfolio.” 

He added that the company continues to invest in local commercial capabilities, service infrastructure, and market-specific expertise to support growth across key international markets.

SEOUL, South Korea, May 26, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Sky Labs (CEO Jack ByungHwan Lee) announced on the 26th that its ring-type cuffless blood pressure monitor, ‘CART BP pro,’ has been officially integrated into the ‘2026 Korean Society of Hypertension Guidelines for the Management of Hypertension (6th Edition).’ 

This marks the first time in the world that a ring-type blood pressure monitor, which measures blood pressure simply by being worn on a finger without a cuff that compresses the arm, has been included in official hypertension treatment guidelines. With this, Korea has become the first country among global healthcare systems to incorporate cuffless blood pressure measurement technology into mainstream clinical practice. 

Through this revised guideline, the Korean Society of Hypertension explicitly stated the “first inclusion of cuffless blood pressure measuring devices in clinical practice” and presented them as devices that may be considered for out-of-office blood pressure monitoring. In the guideline, the recommendation class for cuffless blood pressure monitors was designated as ‘Class IIb.’ 

This inclusion in the treatment guidelines is also an innovative change drawing attention from the global hypertension academic community. Until now, major academic societies in the United States and Europe had maintained a cautious stance on the introduction of cuffless devices due to reasons such as the lack of standardized validation protocols and differences in accuracy among devices. Even amid such concerns, Sky Labs’ ring-type blood pressure monitor not only showed favorable correlation with office blood pressure measured by the traditional auscultatory method, but also demonstrated a high level of accuracy comparable to standard 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) values. Based on such strong clinical evidence, the Korean Society of Hypertension decided to make the world’s first official recommendation. 

The Korean Society of Hypertension (KSH) formalized the clinical protocols for ‘out-of-office blood pressure measurement’ for patients with prehypertension and high-risk groups requiring intensive blood pressure control. First, it set the target blood pressure for patients with diabetes, chronic kidney disease, cerebral infarction (accompanied by stroke), and high-risk hypertension at a more stringent ‘below 130/80 mmHg’ than before and presented risk-based drug treatment guidelines. In addition, for the ‘prehypertension’ patient group, which is highly likely to progress to hypertension, it also specified the recommendation to actively consider ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) or home blood pressure measurement in order to determine whether masked hypertension is present. 

As the need for 24-hour monitoring is thus expanding even to patients with prehypertension, the wearable ‘ring-type cuffless blood pressure monitor,’ which can be worn without interfering with daily life, is emerging as a practical alternative in clinical settings. This is because it can precisely track the risks of ‘nocturnal hypertension’ and ‘morning hypertension,’ which are difficult to detect through one-time office measurements alone, as well as ‘resistant hypertension,’ which is difficult to treat. 

According to a domestic study cited in the guideline, the frequency of nocturnal hypertension, defined as blood pressure of 120/70 mmHg or higher during sleep, reaches about 18–23% of the general population. In particular, 92.6% of patients with nocturnal hypertension were classified as having masked hypertension, appearing to have normal blood pressure in everyday circumstances, and were found to have a higher risk of cardiovascular disease, including increased arterial stiffness and left ventricular hypertrophy, compared with the normotensive group. In addition, morning hypertension, defined as morning blood pressure of 135/85 mmHg or higher, was also reported at 15.9% in a domestic study of patients with hypertension and was pointed out as a major risk factor for cardiovascular events. 

To more precisely evaluate high‑risk conditions such as nocturnal and morning hypertension, the Society recommends 24‑hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring and presents ring‑type cuffless blood pressure monitors as a clinical tool for out‑of‑office blood pressure monitoring. In particular, the Society noted the ring-type cuffless monitor as an innovative alternative to overcome the longstanding clinical limitations of conventional cuff-type ABPMs—such as the inconvenience of 24-hour wear, repetitive compression pain, and resulting sleep disturbances, which often disrupted effective nighttime readings. 

According to research cited in the guidelines, the ring‑type cuffless blood pressure monitor met the accuracy requirements of the international standard (ISO 81060‑2:2018) in comparative clinical trials against standard 24‑hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM), maintaining a mean error within 5 mmHg and a standard deviation within 8 mmHg during both day and night, and thus demonstrated its clinical usefulness. 

Sky Labs’ ‘CART BP pro’ analyzes blood pressure data collected through photoplethysmography (PPG) using AI deep learning technology, enabling 24-hour measurement during daily life or sleep with minimal discomfort. As a result, it is regarded as an alternative that can precisely evaluate a patient’s blood pressure variability and innovatively improve the accuracy of hypertension diagnosis and treatment. 

Based on such clinical excellence, ‘CART BP pro’ succeeded in becoming the first ring-type blood pressure monitor to receive national health insurance reimbursement under South Korea’s National Health Insurance (NHI) system in June 2024. Since its reimbursement entry, it has been prescribed more than 250,000 times in frontline medical settings up to now and is being actively used at 1,920 hospitals and clinics nationwide, including tertiary general hospitals. 

Jack ByungHwan Lee, CEO of Sky Labs, emphasized, “The inclusion of ‘CART BP pro’ in the KSH guidelines demonstrates that Korea is leading the global clinical standard for cuffless blood pressure technology. Leveraging this unparalleled clinical evidence and our successful domestic adoption, we will now accelerate overseas regulatory approvals to establish a new global standard in hypertension management.” 

About Sky Labs https://skylabs.io/en/

MANILA, Philippines, May 26, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — As global travelers increasingly seek destinations that offer authenticity, space, and meaningful experiences, the Philippines is emerging as a compelling alternative to Southeast Asian favorites like Bali or Phuket. With 7,641 islands, the country offers a rare combination of unspoiled natural beauty, cultural depth, and seamless accessibility—appealing to travelers looking for the perfect tropical escape. 

While neighboring countries continue to draw large visitor volumes, shifting traveler preferences toward less crowded, more immersive destinations are redefining travel choices across Asia. In this landscape, the Philippines stands out—not as a replacement, but as an evolution—offering the same tropical allure with greater diversity, flexibility, and room to explore. 

What distinguishes the Philippines is the sheer variety of island experiences available within a single destination. From the iconic white-sand beaches of Boracay to the limestone cliffs and hidden lagoons of Palawan, travelers can curate journeys that range from vibrant social scenes to secluded retreats. 

For those seeking a more laid-back atmosphere, Siargao offers a balance of surf culture and slow living, while lesser-known destinations such as Camiguin and Romblon provide untouched landscapes and intimate experiences far from mass tourism. Thanks to the Philippines’ archipelagic nature, travelers are naturally dispersed, creating opportunities for privacy, exclusivity, and a deeper connection with each destination. 

Beyond its beaches, the country’s landscapes extend to highlands, volcanoes, and heritage towns. Visitors can explore the cobblestone streets of Vigan, trek scenic mountains, or experience vibrant urban culture in Cebu and Manila—creating a multidimensional journey that goes beyond the typical island holiday. 

Seamless Access, Authentic Experiences 

The Philippines’ accessibility continues to improve, with Manila, the country’s primary international gateway, offering direct flights from key North American cities, including Los Angeles, San Francisco, New York, Vancouver, and Toronto. These long-haul connections—combined with efficient domestic flights and ferry networks—make multi-destination travel across the islands both convenient and flexible. 

Supported by the Department of Tourism (DOT), the country continues to enhance its tourism infrastructure while promoting sustainable and community-based travel experiences. Across destinations, visitors can engage with local culture through food, festivals, and everyday life—transforming each trip into a more meaningful and immersive journey. 

What ultimately sets the Philippines apart is its ability to balance adventure and relaxation, discovery and comfort. Whether diving in coral-rich waters, exploring heritage towns, or simply enjoying a quiet stretch of beach, travelers are offered experiences that feel both personal and expansive. 

As global travel evolves beyond crowded destinations, the Philippines presents a compelling alternative: a place where natural beauty remains unspoiled, cultural connections run deep, and every island offers a new perspective. For travelers ready to look beyond the familiar, it is a destination that delivers not just an alternative—but a distinctly richer way to experience Southeast Asia.

FIRENZE – “Il cappotto che il centrosinistra a trazione campo larghissimo sperava di fare, sull’onda del referendum, sia in Toscana che in Italia, non c’è stato. Anche nella nostra regione, come altrove, la partita è aperta”. Lo scrive, in una nota, il deputato e coordinatore regionale toscano di Fratelli d’Italia Francesco Michelotti. 

“Ad Arezzo siamo saldamente in testa e affrontiamo il ballottaggio con fiducia, così come a Viareggio – dice – Prendiamo atto del risultato a Pistoia, al di sotto delle nostre aspettative e, certamente non lo nascondiamo, c’è dispiacere. Dopo nove anni di un’ottima amministrazione a guida centrodestra, oggi lasciamo alla nuova giunta una città migliore di come noi la trovammo prima dei due nostri mandati. A Prato, consci di esser partiti in ritardo, sapevamo comunque che la sfida contro Matteo Biffoni sarebbe stata difficile. Voglio ringraziare tutti i nostri candidati nei comuni toscani e tutti i dirigenti che non si sono risparmiati in queste settimane di campagna elettorale. Ora il lavoro continua per i ballottaggi”.

CGTN ha pubblicato un articolo in cui si illustra come l’approccio di governo incentrato sulle persone abbia migliorato in modo significativo il tenore di vita in Cina e come si preveda che in futuro apporti ulteriori miglioramenti tangibili alla vita dei cittadini
 

PECHINO, May 26, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — In vista del Festival di Primavera di quest’anno, il presidente cinese Xi Jinping ha visitato una mensa comunitaria situata in un complesso residenziale per anziani per informarsi sulle iniziative locali volte a migliorare i servizi di pubblica utilità e l’assistenza pensati per loro. Ha inoltre conversato in un’atmosfera cordiale con i corrieri che stavano facendo una pausa in mensa, facendo loro domande sul lavoro e sulla vita quotidiana. 

Xi ha sottolineato che i comitati del partito e i governi a tutti i livelli devono prendersi cura di loro e fornire servizi migliori a sostegno della loro vita, del loro lavoro e della loro istruzione. 

Il 2026 segna il 105° anniversario della fondazione del Partito Comunista Cinese (PCC). Xi ha sottolineato che il popolo rappresenta la nazione e che la nazione è costituita dal popolo stesso. Ha inoltre affermato che la sopravvivenza di un partito dipende dal sostegno del popolo, aggiungendo che, attraverso non solo il sostegno ma anche la fiducia, il Partito Comunista Cinese è invincibile di fronte a qualsiasi ostacolo. 

Dal 18° Congresso nazionale del Partito Comunista Cinese del 2012, quasi 100 milioni di persone sono state sottratte alla povertà. La Cina ha completato la costituzione di una società moderatamente prospera sotto ogni aspetto e ha istituito i sistemi più estesi al mondo in materia di istruzione, previdenza sociale, assistenza sanitaria e sostegno all’edilizia urbana. 

L’accesso all’istruzione a tutti i livelli ha raggiunto o superato la media dei Paesi a reddito medio-alto. La copertura sanitaria di base è rimasta superiore al 95%, l’aspettativa di vita ha superato i 79 anni e la fascia di reddito medio conta ormai oltre 400 milioni di persone. 

L’attenzione rivolta alla centralità delle persone risulta ancora più evidente ora che la Cina si trova nel primo anno del 15° piano quinquennale (2026-2030). Più di un terzo del piano di sviluppo economico-sociale nazionale riguarda le condizioni di vita della popolazione, inglobando occupazione, reddito, istruzione, assistenza sanitaria, assistenza agli anziani e all’infanzia, ovvero questioni che rivestono la massima e più immediata importanza per i cittadini. 

Per quanto riguarda i corrieri che consegnano generi alimentari, gli autisti di servizi di ride-hailing e gli addetti all’e-commerce, noti come “nuove forme di occupazione” e che rappresentano una fetta in rapida crescita del mercato del lavoro cinese, emersa con l’ascesa di Internet e dell’economia digitale, il piano ha sottolineato l’impegno a promuovere lo sviluppo sano di forme di occupazione flessibili e innovative, incentivando la sottoscrizione di piani assicurativi per i lavoratori dipendenti di questi settori e migliorando ulteriormente le politiche relative al trasferimento dei conti previdenziali. 

Zhang Linshan, ricercatore presso l’Accademia di ricerca macroeconomica della Commissione nazionale per lo sviluppo e la riforma della Cina, ha affermato che il 15° piano quinquennale invia un segnale forte: la Cina rimane fedele a un approccio incentrato sulle persone, con uno sviluppo di alta qualità mirato a migliorare la qualità della vita dei cittadini e a garantire che i benefici dello sviluppo vadano a vantaggio di tutti in modo più ampio ed equo. 

Zhang ha affermato che ciò riflette anche il cambiamento nell’approccio allo sviluppo della Cina, che è passato dal concentrarsi esclusivamente sulla crescita al perseguire una crescita di qualità superiore. 

L’obiettivo è garantire che la crescita economica e il miglioramento delle condizioni di vita della popolazione procedano di pari passo, creando un circolo virtuoso e consentendo alle persone di sentirsi più sicure e più fiduciose riguardo al futuro, ha aggiunto Zhang.

BEIJING, May 26, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — CGTN published an article on Chinese President Xi Jinping’s meeting with Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic in Beijing. Highlighting the ironclad friendship between the two countries, the article focused on their mutually beneficial cooperation and upholding of fairness and justice, and stressed efforts to elevate the China-Serbia comprehensive strategic partnership to new heights. 

Hailed as the pride of Serbia, the century-old Smederevo Steelworks stands as a shining symbol of mutually beneficial cooperation between China and Serbia. 

Once mired in severe operational difficulties and on the brink of bankruptcy, the plant made a remarkable comeback in 2016 when its Chinese partner arrived, thanks to the deepening of high-quality Belt and Road cooperation between the two countries. Today, it has become one of the world’s largest iron and steel makers and integrated service providers measured by production capacity. 

During a state visit to Serbia in 2024, Chinese President Xi Jinping gave Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic replica steel models as gifts. The models, in the shape of China’s Temple of Heaven and Serbia’s Church of Saint Sava, were made of steel produced by the plant, signifying the stronger ties between the two countries. 

On Monday, the two leaders held talks in Beijing. Xi called on the two countries to jointly forge a bright path toward a shared future and common prosperity and elevate the China-Serbia comprehensive strategic partnership to new heights. 

Ironclad friendship 

From the opening ceremony of the Beijing 2022 Olympic Winter Games to the Belt and Road Forum for International Cooperation to commemorative activities marking the 80th anniversary of the victory of the Chinese People’s War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the World Anti-Fascist War, Vucic has attended multiple major events in China. The term “ironclad friendship” has become a hallmark of bilateral meetings and phone calls between the two leaders. 

Guided by the strategic guidance of the two leaders, China-Serbia relations have maintained high-standard development in recent years. In 2025, bilateral trade reached $6.49 billion, marking a 13% year-on-year increase, according to the Chinese Foreign Ministry. 

Serbia was among the earliest European countries to partner with China in the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI). In recent years, China and Serbia, under the BRI, have accelerated the development of a series of projects such as the Budapest-Belgrade railway and the Fruska Gora Corridor linking Novi Sad and Ruma. 

In October 2025, the Chinese-built Serbian section of the Budapest-Belgrade railway was fully inaugurated. Vucic marked the occasion by taking a ride on the newly opened railway, hailing it as a generational achievement that “will forever be written into the history books.” 

With the China-Serbia Free Trade Agreement taking effect on July 1, 2024, Serbian specialty products, such as wine, honey, beef and mutton, are increasingly entering the Chinese market. Meanwhile, projects constructed with the participation of Chinese companies, such as the Belgrade bypass and the Gornji Milanovac bypass, have been completed, serving as key infrastructure projects supporting Serbia’s national development. 

The ironclad friendship between China and Serbia is unique and has a profound historical logic and practical foundation, Xi told Vucic, urging both sides to continue to strengthen youth and cultural exchanges and leverage visa exemption policies, the free trade agreement, and direct flights to expand all-round cooperation in multiple areas to inherit and carry forward the traditional friendship. 

On Monday, Xi also awarded Vucic the Friendship Medal of the People’s Republic of China. Describing the occasion as “one of the most important moments of my life,” Vucic reaffirmed his commitment to promoting the bilateral friendship between Serbia and China and advancing the building of a Serbia-China community with a shared future. 

Shared future 

Built on shared historical trials and lofty aspirations, China and Serbia both cherish perseverance and resilience, uphold national independence and dignity, and share a profound understanding of the importance of upholding peaceful development, fairness and justice, Xi noted during Monday’s meeting. 

In May 2024, Serbia became the first European country to agree with China on building a community with a shared future for the new era. Since then, the bilateral partnership has expanded beyond infrastructure into technology, green energy, and artificial intelligence, securing a promising start toward building a China-Serbia community with a shared future. 

After Monday’s meeting between Xi and Vucic, the two countries issued a joint statement advancing the four global initiatives proposed by China: the Global Development Initiative (GDI), the Global Security Initiative, the Global Civilization Initiative, and the Global Governance Initiative (GGI). 

Highlighting that the four global initiatives have contributed Chinese wisdom and strength to solving global development problems, addressing global security challenges, promoting exchanges and mutual learning among civilizations, and improving global governance, Serbia has decided to participate in the Group of Friends of the GDI and the Group of Friends of the GGI, demonstrating its willingness to deepen cooperation with China on international governance and global development. 

Xi called on China and Serbia to continue to strengthen coordination and cooperation in international affairs, practice true multilateralism, and make unremitting efforts to promote an equal and orderly multipolar world, universally beneficial and inclusive economic globalization, and the building of a community with a shared future for humanity.

BEIJING, May 26, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — CGTN published an article during Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif’s official visit to China, highlighting how China and Pakistan are working together to bring tangible benefits to both peoples and uphold regional peace and stability amid a turbulent global landscape. 

In a recent letter to Chinese President Xi Jinping, a group of Pakistani students studying at China’s Tianjin University made a heartfelt pledge to become builders of cooperation, promoters of exchanges, and guardians of friendship between the two nations. 

Xi said he was truly heartened to see that the cause of China-Pakistan friendship has dedicated young successors, a pleasure he shared with visiting Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif during their meeting at the Great Hall of the People in Beijing on Monday. 

The two countries, Xi said, should accelerate the development of an even closer China-Pakistan community with a shared future in the new era and deliver more outcomes from their all-weather cooperation to better benefit the two peoples, contribute to regional peace and stability, and set a fine example for building a community with a shared future with neighboring countries. 

An unbreakable friendship 

The Pakistani prime minister’s four-day official visit to China comes on the heels of the 75th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between the two countries, which began on May 21, 1951. 

Xi said that over the past 75 years, “China and Pakistan have enjoyed mutual understanding, trust and support, and forged an unbreakable traditional friendship.” 

The strategic mutual trust and practical cooperation have strongly promoted the development of both nations, he said. 

No matter how the international landscape evolves, China will always prioritize the development of China-Pakistan relations in its diplomacy with neighboring countries, Xi added. 

He also urged the two sides to advance both major signature projects and “small and beautiful” livelihood programs and deepen all-round cooperation in areas such as agriculture, industry, artificial intelligence, and talent cultivation. 

China and Pakistan see bilateral cooperation deepening across all sectors, with rich fruits in trade and economic ties. China has maintained its position as Pakistan’s largest trading partner for 11 consecutive years. It is Pakistan’s largest source of imports and its second-largest export destination, and ranks as the country’s largest source of foreign direct investment, according to the Chinese Ministry of Commerce. 

As a flagship project under the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) has been upgraded to version 2.0, focusing on five key pillars: growth, livelihood enhancement, innovation, green development, and openness. The corridor has injected over $25.9 billion in total investment into Pakistan’s economy and created 260,000 jobs. 

Sharif said Pakistan will deepen BRI cooperation with China and advance CPEC development so that the Pakistan-China relationship will continue to grow and benefit both peoples. 

He said the ironclad friendship, which was forged personally by the older generation of leaders, is “growing ever stronger and next to none.” 

A multipolar world 

Far beyond its bilateral scope, China-Pakistan cooperation is widely seen as injecting a dose of stability into an increasingly turbulent global and regional landscape. 

During Monday’s talks, Xi said China appreciates Pakistan for demonstrating “a proactive spirit” and for mediating to restore peace in the Middle East, while Sharif said Pakistan appreciates China for supporting its mediation in negotiations between the United States and Iran. 

Last month, Xi put forward a four-point proposal to promote peace and stability in the Middle East, advocating a commitment to the principles of peaceful coexistence, national sovereignty, and the international rule of law, as well as a balanced approach to development and security. 

These four propositions provide a guiding framework for peace in the region, the Pakistani prime minister told Xi. 

Xi said that China and Pakistan should further enhance security cooperation across broader areas and jointly safeguard regional peace and stability. 

He continued that the two sides should maintain close communication and coordination, jointly oppose unilateralism and the Cold War mentality, and promote an equal and orderly multipolar world and an economic globalization that is universally beneficial and inclusive. 

In an interview with China Media Group, Chinese Ambassador to Pakistan Jiang Zaidong said that closer cooperation between the two countries serves as both “an anchor” for regional peace and stability and “a firewall” safeguarding international equity and justice. 

Against the backdrop of spillovers from the US-Israel-Iran conflict and mounting pressure on the regional landscape and global economy, Jiang said China and Pakistan are standing together to amplify the voice of peace and justice while actively collaborating on practical mediation efforts.

– “Full compatibility” verified with PET bottle recycling streams, proving recyclability from the material design stage 

SK chemicals’ plastic materials have secured verification of their compatibility as feedstock for recycling processes in Europe. 

SEOUL, South Korea, May 26, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — SK chemicals announced on May 26 that its copolyester ECOTRIA CLARO and its PET-based SKYPET product family have been recognized by RecyClass, a European recycling assessment body, as recyclable within the PET recycling stream. 

RecyClass is a non-profit, cross-industry initiative established to advance the circular economy for plastics in Europe. It operates a structured framework to evaluate and certify the recyclability of plastic materials in accordance with evaluation protocols and design guidelines. 

In line with the RecyClass framework, SK chemicals obtained the Technology Approval (TA), an assessment that verifies whether a material, when introduced into actual recycling processes, can be reliably used as recycled feedstock without disrupting existing operations. The TA serves as a key benchmark for assessing a material’s compatibility with the recycling process when used as feedstock for post-consumer recycled plastics. Materials whose compatibility with recycling processes has not been verified can cause process disruptions or quality degradation, potentially impeding actual recycling. 

With this outcome, SK chemicals has secured authoritative verification of the value of its diverse polyester portfolio as recycling feedstock, spanning from copolyesters to PET and from recycled to virgin materials. While recycled materials are commonly evaluated by whether and to what extent they contain recycled feedstock reprocessed from waste plastics, the industry also regards the question of whether discarded waste plastics can themselves be processed back into feedstock as an equally critical measure of recyclability. 

For example, even if a material contains 100% recycled PET, it cannot contribute to a continuous circular structure if it fails to be recycled again after use due to process-related issues, ultimately ending up discarded or landfilled. For this reason, experts emphasize that building a sustainable recycling ecosystem requires materials to satisfy two conditions: incorporating recycled content (Recycled) and being recyclable themselves (Recyclable). 

Ahn Jae-hyun, CEO of SK chemicals, said, “This verification is an official endorsement of our materials’ circularity as feedstock, which represents one pillar of the complete circular structure we are building. To establish a sustainable circular economy, we will continue to accumulate technical expertise in recycling and strengthen our competitiveness across the entire process, from feedstock to commercialization, while expanding collaboration with European customers and other stakeholders.” 

The seven products that received the assessment include five copolyester products in the ECOTRIA CLARO family and two products in the general-purpose SKYPET family. The five ECOTRIA CLARO products, namely ECOTRIA CLARO 100, ECOTRIA CLARO 200, ECOTRIA CLARO 300, ECOTRIA CLARO 100 CR50N, and ECOTRIA CLARO 200 CR50N, received the Full Compatible grade, indicating they can be recycled together within the PET recycling process without any restrictions across the entire workflow. The two SKYPET products, SKYPET BR and SKYPET BR-V, received the Limited Compatible grade, meaning they can be recycled under specific process conditions. 

Earlier, last year, SK chemicals had secured the highest Class A rating from RecyClass through its Letter of Compatibility (LoC) for a PET bottle made with SKYPET CR, its circular-recycled PET. This assessment evaluates whether a container’s structural design is compatible with existing recycling processes and serves as a benchmark for determining whether the container can be processed without issues during actual recycling. The bottle incorporated SKYPET CR BB and SKYPET CR BL.

FIRENZE – Ride in Toscana anche Casa Riformista. 

“Desidero innanzitutto rivolgere le congratulazioni ai sindaci eletti nei Comuni della provincia di Firenze e della Toscana, con l’augurio che possano amministrare nell’interesse delle proprie comunità, mantenendo sempre uno sguardo ampio, concreto e inclusivo”. Lo dichiara Francesco Casini, coordinatore metropolitano fiorentino di Italia Viva e Casa Riformista e consigliere regionale di Casa Riformista.

“I risultati ottenuti dai nostri candidati in provincia di Firenze sono particolarmente significativi – dice – Enrico Buoncompagni (a Figline Incisa Valdarno, ndr) si attesta al 16% e Alessandro Martini (a Sesto, ndr) supera il 10%: dati molto importanti, soprattutto considerando i contesti complessi e le difficoltà delle sfide affrontate. Sono risultati che dimostrano quanto l’area riformista sia viva, radicata e riconosciuta sui territori. Questi numeri confermano che esiste uno spazio politico forte per una proposta riformista, moderata e di governo, capace di parlare ai cittadini con serietà e credibilità, e rappresentano anche una prospettiva positiva in vista dei prossimi appuntamenti elettorali impegnati nel campo largo”.

“Tra i dati più rilevanti a livello regionale emerge certamente la vittoria di Pistoia – conclude –  frutto di un lavoro corale, della capacità di aprirsi alla cittadinanza e di costruire un dialogo tra forze politiche progressiste e riformiste. Un risultato che ha ribaltato i pronostici e riportato il centrosinistra alla guida di una città amministrata dal centrodestra da oltre dieci anni. Anche in questo caso si conferma che un campo largo, serio e credibile può essere la strada giusta da percorrere. In questo percorso è stato fondamentale anche il contributo di Casa Riformista, che ha partecipato con convinzione alla costruzione di questa vittoria”.

Il voto in provincia di Firenze

Sesto Fiorentino

“Desidero innanzitutto porgere le mie congratulazioni al nuovo sindaco di Sesto Fiorentino, Lorenzo Sforzi. Spero che saprà governare la città con equilibrio, ascolto e rappresentando tutte le forze politiche e tutti i cittadini sestesi”. Lo dichiara Alessandro Martini, candidato sindaco di Sesto Riformista, commentando l’esito delle elezioni comunali.

“Per Sesto Riformista si tratta sicuramente di un ottimo risultato, il miglior risultato delle liste riformiste in Toscana in questa tornata elettorale. Un dato che dimostra chiaramente la fine di Sestograd e come la cittadinanza abbia espresso la necessità di una presenza forte dell’area moderata, riformista e di centro all’interno del centrosinistra”.

“Il risultato finale evidenzia anche un altro elemento politico evidente: il Partito Democratico perde consensi e il nuovo sindaco arriva molto lontano dal 71% ottenuto cinque anni fa da Lorenzo Falchi. È un segnale che non può essere ignorato. Quando il centrosinistra si divide e rinuncia a costruire percorsi realmente condivisi, come sarebbero state le primarie, il rischio è quello di indebolirsi. Questa elezione dimostra che serviva più unità. Se fossimo andati tutti insieme, mettendo al centro un progetto comune e inclusivo, avremmo potuto ottenere un risultato straordinario. I migliori risultati si raggiungono quando si costruiscono coalizioni larghe, credibili e capaci di rappresentare sensibilità diverse, non quando si sceglie di andare divisi”.
